The aim of this investigation was to identify the attitudes of the students of Psychology of a private university towards research. The study also measured the participants commitment towards research taking into account variables such as age, gender and academic level. A descriptive quantitative research was implemented in order to reach the goal of the investigation. Aquestionnaire entitled "Attitudes towards scientific research" was applied for the purpose of collecting information. This tool was applied to 233 students from first to fifth semester, with ages was 15 to 31 years old. This information was collected, compared and analyzed. The degree of reliability obtained from the questionnaire was 0.90. This investigation focused on three aspects of students attitudes. The first aspect was the cognitive dimension. The results indicate a high level of the students attitude towards this dimension 60%. The second aspect was the affective dimension, giving as a result 67,8% And the third aspect was the behavioral dimension, which shows 69.5. The results obtained do not indicate differences between gender, but suggest that age and academic level have an effect on research. Based on this claim, it can be concluded that academic training on research provides the knowledge and tools vital for the success of research. It can be emphasized that answers indicating "very low" were not found in the questionnaire. Responses specifying "low" were found only up to the middle point of the career. It can be inferred from this that as soon as the students enroll in the "Professional cycle" there is a tendency to undertake research work and the students can put the theory into practice.
