A Qualitative Research on the Occupational Anxieties Final Year Medical Students in Medical Faculty, Aydın

Abstract

Background: Our aim was to deeply assess the occupational anxiety of Adnan Menderes University School of Medicine senior students and the causes of the anxiety. The medical faculties will be able to shed light on the anxiety of senior students, and will guide them on the steps to be taken in this regard.

Methods: The study was a qualitative study, designed in the form of phenomenological research. It started in August 2016 and was completed in December 2017. Focus group interview technique was used as the data collection method in the study. Participants in the groups were selected by an easily accessible and analogous sampling method. A total of 30 participants and three focus group interviews were conducted. The analysis of the work was done manually by content analysis method. Data analysis resulted in 15 sub-themes and6 main themes.

Results: 15 of the participants were female, 24 were median age (minimum: 23, maximum: 30). The main themes after the focus group interview were “medical students' anxieties about the medical occupation of the final year students”, “anxieties about specialization in medicine exams”, “compulsory service anxiety” and “working anxieties as a general practitioner” in four groups. These themes were also associated with “gender” and “health politics”. Thus, a total of six themes were identified as the main theme.

Conclusions: The senior students of the medical faculty were seriously concerned about their occupational training and their occupational life after graduation. Students who will soon become physicians should be able to make their profession in a good environment and in good shape. For this, the medical education system and health policies should be revised.
