Samples completed Ware SF-36 (V2) and Pooladi Reyshahri students stressors questionnaire (SSQ). Exploratory factor analysis, Pearson correlation coefficient and internal consistency were used to compute the SF-36 (V2)ʹs factor structure (construct validity), discriminant validity and reliability, respectively. Results: Alpha Cronbach coefficients indicated that both factors and the sub-factors of SF-36 (V2) were highly reliable. Also, the results of the exploratory factor analysis indicated two factors (mental and physical) in this questionnaire. The correlation coefficient of SF-36 (V2) and SSQ were -0/68 (p<0/001). Conclusion: SF-36 (V2) is a valid and reliable questionnaire for studying mental and physical health
