Data were analyzed by T, Chi square, Pearson and ANOVA tests by SPSS-۲۲. Results: The highest and lowest risk of suicide was between interns (M=۷.۳۷) and fellowships (M=۳.۷۱), respectively. The highest and the lowest score of psychological distress was between interns (M=۱۰.۸۲)  and paramedical PhD students (M=۶.۹), respectively. Men had suicidal thought or attempt more than twice as likely as women (۷.۶۹% vs. ۲.۳۵%). The probability of suicide in future was more in men than women (۱.۵۳% vs. ۰). There was a strong and significant (P ≤۰.۰۰) correlation between questions of suicidal behavior questionnaire and psychological distress.
