Relationship Between Well-Being, Psychological Resilience, and Life Satisfaction of Residents

Öz

Aim: In this study, the objective was to compare the psychological well-being, psychological resilience and life satisfaction of the resident physicians working in our hospital according to their gender and branches. Material and Method: ‘‘Personal Information Form’’, ‘‘Brief Psychological Resilience Scale’’, ‘‘Psychological Well-Being Scale’’ and ‘‘Life Satisfaction Scale’’ were used as data collection tools to evaluate the socio-demographic qualities of the resident physicians. The results and study data obtained in this study were analyzed using the SPSS 22 program. Results: Psychological resilience, psychological well-being and life satisfaction did not differ according to the resident’s gender. While the psychological resilience of resident physicians did not differ statistically according to their branches, the psychological well-being and life satisfaction of the resident physicians working in internal medical science were higher than of other resident physicians. No statistically significant difference was found in the psychological well-being and life satisfaction of the resident physicians working in the Surgical Medical Science and emergency department. Conclusion: It was found that psychological resilience did not differ according to the branches of the resident physicians. However, psychological well-being and life satisfaction of physicians working in internal medical science were higher than of those working in surgical medical science. At the end of the study, Life satisfaction of the emergency medicine, which is regarded as one of the internal medical science, was closer to scores of the surgical medical science.
