Social health is one of the most important health indicators of each country and can be influenced by different factors.

A sample of 100 were selected using randomized sampling method. Data were collected using the Key Health Social Questionnaire and Sherer Self-efficacy Questionnaire. Data were entered into SPSS-22 software and analyzed using Pearson correlation, independent t-test and one-way ANOVA.
