详细说明
Depressive symptoms are higher among women and its prevalence among university students was reported to be higher than the general population .There are various risk factors of depressive symptoms among university students, lower socioeconomic status, poor academic performance, overweight, life stressors, family history of psychiatric disorders, sleeping problems, and exposure to patients' suffering. Several studies were conducted among medical students in different Egyptian Universities to detect prevalence of depressive symptoms which were 42.9% in Al-Azhar Uni-versity, Cairo, 60.8% in Fayoum University, 59.2% in Mansoura University and 57.9% in Alexandria University.
A sense of control means having a feeling of autonomy, of choosing how you spend your time, of doing your own work in your own way, which is a key component of happiness. Depressive symptoms more common in those who feel there is little they can do to change important things in their lives.
Medical education is considered stressful. Medical students have psychological and academic stressors during their revolution from insecure students to young knowledgeable physicians, which were determined to be associated with depressive symptoms and decrease the quality of life and academic achievements.
