Abstract: Objective To study the effect of self-efficacy on learning effect of medical students.Methods Self-efficacy scores of the questionnaire to clinical medical students who practice in our hospital from September 2012 to April 2013 were measured.Students with score lower than the average were recruited into group A,and the others were recruited into group B.Then the scores of both-group students in the process of clinical practice,the theoretical knowledge,and triguaiacyl tests were gotten for statistical analysis.Results Group B (88.02 ± 3.902; 89.02 ± 3.902; 89.94 ± 3.794) were significantly better than group A (67.07 ± 5.131,66.02± 5.866,65.23 ±6.741) in the scores of the theory of knowledge,operation skills and triguaiacyl test.The correlation analysis showed that self-efficacy was positively related to these three aspects (P=0.032,0.024,0.001).Conclusion Clinical teachers should consciously improve students' self-efficacy in the process of their clinical practice,in order to improve the learning effect of the clinical medical students preferably.
