Concept map is a meta-cognition strategy that can enhance the learning process by showing the relationship between concepts. This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of concept mapping and nursing process on self-regulated learning, self-efficacy and cognitive strategies of nursing students of Arak University of Medical Sciences.   Materials & Methods : This was a pre-post quasi-experimental study with control group of 53 nursing students participating. They were divided randomly into two groups, control (nursing process, n=25) and experimental group (concept mapping, n=28). Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) was used to assess self-regulated learning, self-efficacy and cognitive strategies. Data were analyzed by SPSS-16 software using independent t test.   Result : There were not statistical differences of pretest scores and demographic characteristics between two groups. The increase in self-efficacy and cognitive strategies posttest mean scores in comparison to pretest was statistically significant in concept mapping group (P M3 ER -
