摘要：Purpose:To establish a model of Japanese pharmacy students’ learning motivation profile and investigate the effects of pharmaceuti_x0002_cal practical training programs on their learning motivation.Methods:The Science Motivation Questionnaire II was administered to pharmacy students in their 4th (before practical training),5th (before practical training at clinical sites),and 6th (after all practical training) years of study at Josai International University in April,2016.Factor analysis and multiple-group structural equation modeling were conducted for data analysis.Results:A total of 165 students participated.The learning motivation profile was modeled with 4 factors (intrinsic,career,self-determination,and grade motivation),and the most effective learning motivation was grade motivation.In the multiple-group analysis,the fit of the model with the data was acceptable,and the estimated mean value of the factor of 'self-deter?mination’ in the learning motivation profile increased after the practical training programs (P=0.048,Cohen’s d=0.43).Conclusion:Practical training programs in a 6-year course were effective for increasing learning motivation,based on 'self-determination’ among Japanese pharmacy students.The results suggest that practical training programs are meaningful not only for providing clinical experi?ence but also for raising learning motivation.
