Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and dependent t-tests. The results of this study revealed that the efficiency of “Self-learning package: Basic knowledge of Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing” for nursing students was at 80.00/88.44, which was close to the set criteria (80/80). The post-test of the achievement test of the self-learning package was statistically significant higher than the pre-test (t=1.28, p<.001). A high level of satisfaction towards the self-learning package (Mean=4.50, SD=.64) was reported. The findings indicate that the “Self-learning package: Basic knowledge of Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing” for nursing students is effective for self-review.
