Abstract
In this study, the degree of mental health among students whoes parents have been the war sacrifices and martyrs in Qazvin, Zanjan and Arak Universities of Medical Sciences was evaluated. The present work was a cross-sectional study performed on all registered students of war sacrifices and martyrs. The GHQ-28 questionnaire was used and a score of 23 considered as cut off point for general scale. The data showed that 28.6% of students under the study were suspected of having mental disorder. When the data were calculated for individual universities, the rates obtained for Zanjan, Arak and Qazvin universities were 40.7%, 26.8% and 25.6% respectively.
