Significant Difference

Background:At the university, students begin to be responsible for their own life decisions and lifestyles. First year students are required to adapt especially to a new learning environment and to cope with the academic and social demands of vocational education. High academic expectations are stressful and can pose a risk to students mental and physical health. Anxiety and depression are among the most common psychiatric problems among students.Objectives:The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) in medical students and to compare students from engineering faculty.Methods:392 (284 faculty of medicine, 108 faculty of engineering) students selected from Firat University Faculty of Medicine and Engineering were included in the study. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) forms were filled in for all participants. Anxiety and depression among students of medical and engineering were examined. Moreover, 2016 ACR FMS classification criteria was used to select the student who have FMS.Results:In our sample, 185 (47.1%) and 207 (52.9%) of participants were male and female, respectively. HADS anxiety and HADS depression scores were significantly higher in engineering students than in medical students (mean HADS anxiety and depression scores were 9.07; 10.29, p= 0.007 and 7.61; 8.52, p= 0.039, respectively). While a significant difference was found among medical and engineering students in terms of HADS anxiety and depression scores in men (p<0.001 and p= 0.006), no significant difference was found in women (p= 0.676 and p= 0.278). On the other hand, 46 (16.1%) of medical students and 13 (11.7%) of students from engineering faculty have FMS (p=0.170).Conclusion:FMS prevalences are similar in the medical students and students from engineering faculty. However, anxiety and depression are more common among male engineering students than medical students. This may be related to future employment anxiety among students from engineering faculty.References:[1]Cheung T, et al.

Style Preferences

This study sought to synthesise evidence from published literature on the various learning style preferences of undergraduate nursing students and to determine the extent they can play in promoting academic success in nursing education of Namibia. A comprehensive literature search was conducted on electronic databases as a part of the systematic review. Although, kinaesthetic, visual and auditory learning styles were found to be the most dominant learning style preferences, most studies (nine) indicated that undergraduate nursing students have varied learning styles. Studies investigating associations of certain demographic variables with the learning preferences indicated no significant association. On the other hand, three studies investigating association between learning styles and academic performance found a significant association. Three studies concluded that indeed learning styles change over time and with academic levels. The more nurse educators in Namibia are aware of their learning styles and those of their students, the greater the potential for increased academic performance.

Stress negatively affects the mental health of students, causes anxiety and depression, leads to poor academic performance, lowers level of professional training and success in the future. The purpose of the research is to study the state of mental health of medical students to develop recommendations for the prevention of maladaptation. Materials and methods. 252 5-year students aged 20–29 (22 ± 1,1) years, 168 (66,7 %) females and 84 (33,3 %) males (137 students of Belgorod State University and 115 of Altay State Medical University (ASMU)) were examined by medico-sociological and psychometric methods. Results. It was established that every fifth student of the Belgorod State University and every third of the ASMU did not enter the medical university on their own initiative. Less than half (43 %) of Belgorod State University students and 30.4 % of the ASMU ones are convinced that the choice of profession was correct, 35 and 37.4 % are, consequently, completely disappointed with it. Students of Belgorod State University dealt with training stress factors poorer and, as a result, have more pronounced mental symptoms of training stress, difficulties in organizing the daily regimen, irregular nutrition, and fear of the future. Regardless of the region of studying, the number of students not committed to the medical profession, after 5 years of study, is more than 3 times higher among those who enter the university not on their own initiative. Students of the ASMU hit substances, skipped classes, played computer games and took sedative drugs more often to overcome academic stress. The degree of anxiety before the exams in students of Belgorod State University was higher (9 points) than in their peers from the State Medical University (7 points). An extremely high (8–10 points) level of anxiety before exams was characteristic of 75,9 and 44,3 % of students, respectively. The former were more likely to experience clinically significant panic attacks: 27,7 and 6,1 %. Conclusion. Given the high incidence of social phobia (19,1–24,1 %), depression (22,6–32,2 %) and anxiety (21,9– 27,8 %) among medical students, the development and implementation of psycho-correctional programs aimed at the formation of adaptive ways to overcome stress, reduce anxiety and depression is required. This will prevent the development of psychosomatic disorders and addictions.
