Abstract: Background: Self-directed learning is the cornerstone of adult learning. The aim of the study was to investigate the improvement of core competency and increase interest to be a surgeon among medical students after a perioperative training through a structured learning with written record model. The mediating role of adult learning pattern on core competency was also examined. Methods: A 2-week training protocol was based on a structural learning model which included a structured written record by the learner for postoperative immediate feedback. An adult learning questionnaire (ALQ) was developed to assess learners’ adult learning pattern and a clinical core competency questionnaire (CCCQ) was developed to assess learning outcomes. A two-way repeated measured of ANCOVA would be used to analyze the interaction effect of adult learning pattern and learning effect on learning outcomes. Results: From Jan 2017 to Dec 2019, 412 medical students were enrolled in the study. The increase scores of CCCQ and a significant numbers of increase interest to be a surgeon were shown after the perioperative training. Two-way repeated measure ANOVA revealed that there were significant differences in change between pre- and post-CCCQ across four levels of ALQ (interaction effect F = 13.0, p
