This study analyzed by Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann-Whitney Test with significance level of p < 0.05.

Result: The results showed the influence of participants modeling on self-care ability in schizophrenic clients with self-care deficit. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test in treatment group showed p = 0.005 and control group showed p = 0,206. Mann-Whitney Test showed p = 0.030. Modeling participant improved self-care ability in schizophrenic clients with self-care deficit.
