Abstract

 Background: Learning Motivation is an important factor that generates learning activities, affects learning results and orients the development of each student. Nowadays, several colleges and universities are very interested in this issue because the teaching trend is changing, which focuses on student-centered learning, so it is very necessary to pay attention to students' learning motivation and make it more constructive. Objectives: The study was conducted to determine and to evaluate the factors affecting learning motivation of Traditional Medicine students at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy (CTUMP). Materials and methods: The data was collected by a descriptive cross-sectional study of 300 full-time Traditional Medicine students from the firstyear to the sixth-year at CTUMP. Results: No item of observed variables was rejected when determining the reliability of the scale by Cronbach's Alpha; 28/33 items remained after exploratory factor analysis were used for further regresssion analysis and those items were grouped into five factors: (1) Individuals; (2) Study programmes; (3) Facilities; (4) Family and (5) Learning environment. Conclusion: The study identified affecting factors, thereby serving as a basis for proposing some recommendations to strengthen and foster learning motivation for students in order to improve quality education at CTUMP, especially for Traditional Medicine.
