Methods: This is a descriptive and analytic study. The statistical population includes all graduate students and third and fourth year undergraduate students of nutrition affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences that 170  students were selected randomly through stratified sampling method based on kerchessy and Morgan table as sample size. For collecting data, students' perception questionnaire and the Motivational Strategies Questionnaire for the Study were used. Data were  analyzed by using independent t-test and multiple regression simulations through SPSS software Results: The results of regression analysis showed that the variables of perception of the curriculum components in general could explain 41.4% of the variables of academic engagement. Among the components of the curriculum, two components of teaching method (p <0.01, r = 0.388) and evaluation (p <0.01, Beta = 0.35) can predict the criterion variable (educational conflict) also, the target components and content cannot predict academic engagement alone. Conclusion: Considering that the perception of the curriculum components of the students can predict academic engagement, so, educational systems by adopting clear goals, up-to-date and efficient content, Active teaching methods, diverse and continuous evaluation can promote academic engagement.

Therefore, the aim of this research is to study the relationship between this model and demographic characteristics in applying educational programs that are the goals of third-generation universities. Methods: This is  a descriptive-analytic correlation type study. The statistical population consisted of all undergraduate students studying in the basic sciences of Iran University of Medical Sciences in the academic year of 96-97 so that 401 of them were selected through random hierarchical cluster sampling method. To collect data, Keller Motivation Questionnaire and Demographic Information Form were used. Validity and reliability of Keller motivation questionnaire was confirmed by content validity and Cronbach's alpha ( 0.83) respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive (Frequency distribution tables) and inferential (One Way ANOVA and T- Test) statistics methods by SPSS. Results: The results showed that in each of the demographic characteristics of students with gender Female (58.6%), single (97.3%), fathers with higher education (48.8%) and employed mothers (53.2%) with undergraduate and postgraduate education (38.3%) who were residents of non-Tehran cities (53.5%), were the most studied subjects and the Mean (standard deviation) Score of satisfaction component (20.87± 3.444) of Keller motivation in the whole of the study population was higher than other components .However ,ANOVA showed that there was no significant correlation between any of the components of motivation, especially the satisfaction component with the demographic characteristics of gender (F=2.987, P=0.118), location status (F=2.049, P=0.591), father's education (F=0.762, P=0.467), mother's education (F=1.153, P=0.317), economic status (F=3.050, P=0.144), and mother's job status (F=2.795, P=0.063). Conclusion: The demographic factors studied in this study did not directly affect the motivational and educational processes of medical students. Therefore, officials and educational planners can consider other factors such as personality traits, self-efficacy and students’ positive beliefs in enhancing the effectiveness of educational design in flourishing of the capacities and potential of medical students. educational design academic Motivation Educational Status Demography Students Medical 2018 10 01 67 77 http://rme.gums.ac.ir/article-1-660-en.pdf 10.29252/rme.10.3.67
