The self-administered questionnaires were distributed by using Google Forms. The content validity was evaluated by 3 experts;the Index of Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) of each item of all part was 1 and the coefficient of reliability knowledge and attitude were more than 0.70. The links of each Google Form was sent through Facebook and Line contact friends and asked them for distribution to others. The were 416 students who completed the questionnaires. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data, while for the association study, Chi-square and Binary logistic regression were used.
