In this paper we study the relationship between the star formation efficiency and luminosity of Hα emission, Lyman continuum radiation, and Hβ emission on 35 giant extragalactic HII regions in seven galaxies. Using the observational results we obtain the relationship, and find that the star formation efficiency is correlation with Halpha luminocity, and Lyman continuum luminosity, and Hβ lumonosity, respectively. Key words: external galaxy—giant HII region—star cluster
