The study of this area shows that PAL-scheme program has benefits both in student tutors and tutees in mastering their clinical skills. However, student’s motivations in this PAL-scheme program haven’t much been explored. The aim of this study is to explore student’s motivations in a peer-assisted clinical skills training program.Method: This study used exploratory focus group discussion (FGD) of 4 groups of 3rd year students (2 tutors and 2 tutees) Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada and in-depth interview to 6 faculty staffs which were chosen purposively. The data were then transcribed and analyzed for themes.Result: The results of this study showed that when joining a PAL-scheme program, tutees were motivated extrinsically as a preparation for the end of year Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), whereas tutors were motivated more intrinsically. Various spectrums of motivations were founds, student’s motivations in a peer-assisted clinical skills training program were different between tutors and tutees. Tutors were motivated intrinsically whereas tutees extrinsically.Conclusion: Improvements in organizing PAL program need to be done to enhance the tutees motivation more intrinsically and also to improve the quality and quantity of clinical skills training.
