Abstract
This article tried to define the relations between knowledge of tuberculosis infection, behavior and prevent behavior of the students of the department of dental hygiene and of non-dental hygiene. The data was collected from May, 2017 to June, 2017. Characteristics relative to variables were measured. As the result, in tuberculosis infection for the students of the department of dental hygiene, the average point was 13.56points for knowledge; 45.75 points for behavior and 41.75points for prevent behavior. In tuberculosis infection for the students of the department of non-dental hygiene, the average point was 12.93points for knowledge; 45.58points for behavior and 42.01 for prevent behavior. As the result of the study, the student's knowledge of tuberculosis had the effect on behavior, but it didn't have the effect on prevent behavior, on the other hand, it had the effect on prevent behavior. The result of this study may be utilized for an educational program for preventing tuberculosis infection of the students.
