Materials & Methods: This is a descriptive - analytic research. All 294 faculty members and department heads of Tabriz University of Medical Science were involved.

Descriptive statistics such as frequency tables, mean, percentages, etc. and inferential statistics such as Chi-square and variance analysis were used to analyze the data. Result: Results indicated that majority of faculty members reported a low rate of change in their performance caused by students rating during last 2 years.
