Demographic factors, Achievement Goal Scale, and Academic Achievement Scale were used in this study, and descriptive statistics, the Pearson correlation analysis, and the multivariate linear hierarchical regression analysis were performed to analyze the impact of achievement goals on the academic achievement of medical students.Results:For these medical students, the mean value of achievement-near to the goal orientation was (3.45±0.77), the mean value of achievement-dodge the goal orientation was (3.43±0.80), and the mean value of mastery goal orientation was (3.85±0.66). Achievement-near to the goal orientation had a significant positive impact on academic achievement ( β=0.336, P<0.01), and mastery goal orientation also had a significant positive impact on academic achievement ( β=0.540, P<0.01).
