Growth mindset, or the belief that ability can be developed, as well as students' perception of their instructors' growth mindset, have been associated with better academic outcomes for a wide range of students. The primary purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of growth mindset on medical student well-being.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>We recruited all graduating osteopathic medical students in the class of 2023. This survey included items about student demographics (including identifiable items), experiences in medical school, practice plans, along with financial and other information. The survey of 667 items required a median time of 33 min to complete. Our sample consisted of 4,180 students. Students self-reported growth mindset, perception of instructor growth mindset, and four measures of well-being: flourishing, resilience, burnout, and maladaptive psychological symptoms.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Growth mindset and perception of instructor growth mindset were significant predictors of medical student well-being.
