It has given permit to health center for vasectomy by government since 1987, but it is not accepted easily due to cultural and religious factors and so wrong imaginations. Our purpose was to study the effects of education on acceptance of this procedure. So in a quasi-experimental study by multistage sampling 281 teachers were surveyed in 1996. We collected data with a questionnaire that developed by investigator. The experimental group participated in an educational program by lecture and flap chart. After 10 days their attitude to vasectomy were measured and the results were compared. There was not significant difference between mean Scores of attitude to vasectomy in two groups before training and pre and posttest in control group. Mean Scores of attitude to vasectomy were increased after training (control group X = 3.29, SD = 1.03, Experimental group X = 3.68, SD = 0.99, P<0.05) and there were a significant difference between two groups. Comparison of mean scores of attitude in experimental-group showed a significant deference in pre (X=3.22, SD= 1.10) and posttest (X=3.68, SD=0.99, P<0.05). In comparison, mean scores in terms of Variables such as age group, level of education, the number of girls and boys (children) and occupation status of wife, were not significant deference. So, these results suggest that even with short educational programs, it is possible that suitable healthy behavior create in people.
