Objective: To discuss the methods to improve the time management tendency of medical
students through empirical research. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was used to conduct group
counseling intervention on time management for medical students in the experimental group. Results:
Before the intervention, there were no significant differences between the experimental group and the
control group in time value perception, time monitoring view, time efficacy and time management
tendency. After the intervention, the experimental group had significantly higher time value perception,
time monitoring view, time efficacy and time management tendency than the control group. In the
experimental group, the time value perception, time monitoring view, time efficacy and time management
tendency were significantly higher after the intervention than before. Conclusion: Group tutoring of time
management can significantly improve medical students’ sense of time value, view of time monitoring,
sense of time efficacy and tendency of time management.
