This study has been done with the aim of determining self-determination training and gender on the help-seeking behavior of University students. The study was a semi-experimental study with pretest- post-test, follow- up with control group. The statistical population included all students of Farhangian University of Birjand in 2016-2017. The statistical sample includes 80 students of Farhangian University (40 females and 40 males) who have voluntarily registered and randomly been placed in test and control groups. First the training package was developed and its validity was evaluated and confirmed. Then 12 training sessions were given to for the students of test group. The research instruments was the help- seeking questionnaire of Ryan and Pentrich (1995). Data was analyzed through two-way multivariate covariance analysis and the results showed that self-determination training is effective on help-seeking of students in post-test and follow up stages (p<0.001). The effect of gender in post-test and follow-up is significant on acceptance of help-seeking (p<0.05) and in follow-up stage, the interaction of self-determination training and gender has not meaningful effect on any of variables.
