摘要
We undertook this study to determine the presence of depression, anxiety and stress among medical undergraduates studying in a premier medical institution in Hyderabad (south India). 55 apparently healthy, willing male and female second year MBBS students, studying at Malla Reddy Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, were recruited for the present study after obtaining free, written, voluntary consent. The DASS is a 42-item questionnaire which includes three self-report scales designed to measure the negative emotional states of depression, anxiety and stress. Data was analyzed by SPSS 20.0. Data was expressed in mean +/- SD. Student t test and paired t test was applied to observe significance of difference. P value < 0.05 was taken as significant. In our study we have observed moderate level of stress in both male and female students during regular classes also. We recommend adopting simple stress management programmes for medical students.
