We investigate the chaotic inflationary model using the two-loop effective potential of a self-interacting scalar field theory in curved spacetime. We use the potential which contains a non-minimal scalar curvature coupling and a quartic scalar self-interaction and which was found in Ref.[1]. We analyze the Lyapunov stability of de Sitter solution and show the stability bound. Calculating the inflationary parameters, we systematically explore the spectral index n s and the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, with varying the four parameters, the scalar-curvature coupling ξ 0, the scalar quartic coupling λ 0, the renormalization scale μ and the e-folding number N. It is found that the two-loop correction on n s is much larger than the leading-log correction, which has previously been studied in Ref.[2]. We show that the model is consistent with the observation by Planck with WMAP [3],[4] and a recent joint analysis of BICEP2 [5].
