Research samples were 40 schizophrenic patients who met the inclusion criteria from outpatient department, Nakhon Sawan Ratchanakharin Psychiatric Hospital. They were matched by gender and negative symptoms and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups, 20 subjects each.

Data were collected using the personal patients’ record form and the positive and negative syndrome scale. All instruments were tested for content validity by 5 professional experts. The content validity index of the positive and negative syndrome scale was .84. Its inter-rater reliability was .72. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and t-test. Major findings were as follow: 1. The mean score of negative symptoms of schizophrenic patients after receiving in the symptommanagement self-efficacy program was significantly lower than that before receiving the program, at the .05 level. 2.
