Journal Title: Psychiatry, Neurology and Medical Psychology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
To identify the psychological characteristics of the stress response among medical students 77 first-year students of School of Medicine of V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University (24 boys and 53 girls) aged from 16 to 23 years were examined. The data analysis revealed that students of the first year feel the education process as the strong intellectual and emotional overload. The most pronounced causes of stress were allocated: among young men – lack of textbooks, and among girls – inability to organize their daily routine, shyness and timidity. The most powerful factors in the formation of stress disorders among all students, regardless of gender are presented by irregular meals and a large workload. Indicators of meaningful and mechanical memory among girls were mostly higher than those among boys. This may indicate that women are more attentive and are better able to focus on the learning activity process. An algorithm of recommendations for providing comprehensive assistance to students in stress reducing and memory improving has been developed.
