Abstract
The study investigated the effects of a psycho-educational program on self-efficacy in undergraduates. The experimental group participated in a 4-week program based on cognitive behavior therapy as part of a psychology class, while the control group did not. The program consisted of lectures on effective distraction and relaxation technique, group work and homework. The experimental group rated their understanding about contents each session, and evaluated the program comprehensively. All participants completed a questionnaire measuring self-efficacy and mental health before and after the program. The results suggested that the experimental group had enhanced self-efficacy for distraction and relaxation technique, compared to the control group. It was also suggested that participating the program was useful to reduce depression among the high depression group.
