Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic declaration in 2019 required schools and universities to close, challenging students and their education. The mandatory stay-at-home quarantine rules and change to online education accentuate how mental health plays a crucial role in maintaining performance during challenging times. Coping self-efficacy (CSE) is associated with higher mental health levels and resilience to distress. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate students’ CSE and related factors. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, CSE scores and demographic characteristics of the participants were evaluated through online questionnaires. A total of 364 medical students from Tabriz University Medical Sciences completed the questionnaires and were included in the study. CSE scores of students and their demographic characteristics were obtained, and the analysis was performed using a t-test and one-way ANOVA. Results: Of those included, 37.1% were males and the mean CSE score of the students was 83.75±24.8. Students’ type of residence was found to be significantly related to their CSE scores (P=0.003). Students living with their spouses had the highest CSE scores, while those living with their parents had the lowest CSE scores. The association of CSE scores with gender, marital status, academic year of study, and source of income was not significant. Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, students living with their parents had the lowest CSE scores. CSE plays a crucial role in managing distressful events, and our findings may be useful in identifying groups prone to stressful factors and help enhance future educational policies and planning.
大不里士医科大学医学生应对自我效能感及其影响因素
背景:2019年宣布COVID-19大流行要求学校和大学关闭,这对学生和他们的教育构成了挑战。强制性居家隔离规定和在线教育的变化凸显了心理健康在挑战时期保持表现方面的关键作用。应对自我效能(CSE)与较高的心理健康水平和对痛苦的适应能力有关。因此,本研究旨在评估学生的CSE及其相关因素。方法:在横断面研究中,通过在线问卷评估参与者的CSE得分和人口学特征。来自大不里士大学医学院的364名医学生完成了问卷调查,并被纳入研究。获得学生CSE成绩及其人口学特征,采用t检验和单因素方差分析进行分析。结果:男性占37.1%,学生CSE平均分(83.75±24.8)。学生的居住类型与CSE成绩显著相关(P=0.003)。与配偶同住的学生的CSE分数最高,而与父母同住的学生的CSE分数最低。CSE分数与性别、婚姻状况、学年、收入来源的相关性不显著。结论:根据本研究结果,与父母同住的学生的CSE分数最低。CSE在管理痛苦事件中起着至关重要的作用,我们的研究结果可能有助于识别易受压力因素影响的群体,并有助于加强未来的教育政策和规划。
