Abstract: This study aims to investigate (1) whether the problem-based learning (PBL) method is effective to teach a theoretical subject, namely Personality Psychology I,and (2) how effective the PBL is in comparison with the traditional one. This study was a quasi-experimental study in which two Personality Psychology I classes (Classes A and C) employed the PBL method in the learning process, and the other class (Class B) employed the traditional method. The effectiveness was measured by the outcome-oriented assessment through an achievement test and the processorientedassessment through a learning satisfaction scale and the amount of worktime in groups. The hypothesis was tested by the independent sample t-test. Thestudy shows the following results. (1) There is no significant difference in the score of the achievement test between the students in the PBL class and those in the traditional class. (2) In the process-oriented assessment, there are significant differences between the students in the PBL class and those in the traditional class, especially in the learning pleasure, learning difficulties, learning anxiety, perception of the subject matter mastery, and perception of fairness.
