This research examines stress and resilience levels among first-year medical students using standardized scales.
Administered the Medical Student Stress Scale (MSSS) and Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) questionnaires.
Included demographic data collection to analyze stress across various factors.
Multivariable linear regression analysis was conducted to assess relationships between stress and resilience.
Average stress scores were 34.3 in fall and 38.8 in spring, indicating increased stress over the academic year.
Resilience scores were consistent, with averages of 3.6 in fall and 3.5 in spring.
Each 1-point increase on the BRS led to a significant decrease in stress by 10-13 points (p < 0.001).
