Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 11

Abstract

Emotions are inherent component of human life, having their effect on almost all aspects of our life i.e. decision making, behavior, inter personal relations, profession etc. Emotional intelligence is increasingly discussed as having a potential role in Medicine, Nursing and other healthcare professions. Stress is very high for students in healthcare courses. This study is looking at emotional intelligence in medical students in their first year of MBBS and examines the relationship with perceived stress. We have calculated emotional intelligence and perceived stress by using a questionnaire based scale . We did this on two occasions first on admission and second before the final examination of the first year MBBS . After using appropriate statistical analysis, we have found out that there is significant inverse correlation between EI and PS. That means the students with higher EI score have less perceived stress.
