Objective: The objective is to evaluate the application efficacy of two kinds of teaching modes in psychology and related courses by using Meta-analysis. Methods: The related studies in the corresponding database were collected. According to the selection criterion, we selected the forward-looking cases to study by using the statistical software RevMan5.2 to process the data. Results: 5 studies were included in the research, and homogeneity test was χ 2 = 5.71 df = 4, I 2 = 30%, indicating that there was a middle heterogeneity between studies. The combined effect of WMD is 5.16 [4.33 -6.00], P < 0.00001, which indicates that there are differences between the two kinds of teaching methods, having statistical significance. Conclusion: In psychology and related courses, PBL has the superiority compared with the traditional teaching method.
