Abstract

Background: Medical students face high pressures to perform academically, which may lead to poor psychological well-being, burnout, and even mental illness.

Aims: This study aims to evaluate the mental health, degree of burnout and substance misuse among medical students in Indonesia in order to to build a system that supports the prosperity of future doctors.

Methods: In February to March 2020, we conducted an online survey of Indonesian medical students to assess burnout (using Oldenburg Burnout Inventory, OLBI), minor psychiatric illness (General Health Questionnaire 12, GHQ12), and alcohol abuse (CAGE questionnaire).

Results/conclusion: A total of 1,729 students from 29 universities participated in the study; 93% felt disengaged, 95% felt exhausted, and 74% were identified to have mild psychiatric illness. We discuss potential factors that need to be explored in further research, including further concerns related to developments since the pandemic, and the need for potential interventions at both local and national levels to enhance the wellbeing of medical students.

印度尼西亚医科学生的幸福和心理健康:一项描述性研究。

背景:医学生在学业上面临着巨大的压力，这可能导致心理健康状况不佳、倦怠甚至精神疾病。目的:本研究旨在评估印尼医学生的心理健康、倦怠程度和药物滥用，以建立一个支持未来医生繁荣的系统。方法:我们于2020年2月至3月对印度尼西亚医学生进行了一项在线调查，以评估倦怠(使用Oldenburg倦怠量表，OLBI)、轻微精神疾病(一般健康问卷12,GHQ12)和酒精滥用(CAGE问卷)。结果/结论:共有来自29所高校的1729名学生参与了研究;93%的人感到不投入，95%的人感到疲惫，74%的人被确定患有轻度精神疾病。我们讨论了需要在进一步研究中探索的潜在因素，包括自大流行以来与事态发展有关的进一步关注，以及在地方和国家层面采取潜在干预措施以提高医学生福祉的必要性。
