Data collection instrument was a questionnaire including students' characteristics; students' beliefs toward SSBs based on the SCT and perceived barriers; Preventive behaviors and the amount of daily consumption of SSBs. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and analytical tests, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and linear regression in the SPSS (version 25.0). Results: The results showed that the average age of the participants was 13.92 ± 0.78 years. The amount of SSB use among students was unsatisfactory (3.49 glasses per day). In addition, the findings indicated that students' self-regulatory, perceived social support, perceived barriers and self-efficacy (p <0.001) had a statistically significant association with Adopting preventive behaviors to reduce consumption of SSBs, and those constructs explained 40% of variance of students' Adopting preventive behaviors. Conclusion:Among the variables related to the SCT and perceived barriers, self-regulatory, perceived social support, perceived barriers and self-efficacy were effective factors on students' Nutritional Performance toward consumption of SSBs.
