Amaç: Sinizm, karşılanmamış beklentilerden kaynaklanan olumsuz bir duygu ve tutumdur. Çalışmamızın amacı, beş yıl boyunca bir üniversiteye kayıtlı tıp öğrencileri arasında sinizm derecelerini ve ilgili faktörleri belirlemektir.
Yöntemler: Bu kesitsel tanımlayıcı çalışmanın evrenini Tıp Fakültesi'nin ilk beş yılında kayıtlı öğrenciler oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada kullanılan çevrimiçi anket 37 sorudan oluşmaktadır. Verilerimizi katılımcılara sosyo-demografik özellikleriyle ilgili on bir soru, sağlık durumlarıyla ilgili üç soru, fakülteyle ilgili beş soru ve eğitim kurumuyla ilgili on sekiz sorudan oluşan beş puanlı Likert tipi bir anket olan "Üniversiteye Yönelik Sinik Tutumlar Ölçeği" uygulayarak topladık. Analizler SPSS 17.0 paket yazılımı kullanılarak gerçekleştirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya 342 öğrenci dahil edildi. Ortalama puan 54,6 ± 10,4 idi. Çoklu analiz, erkek öğrenciler, tıp fakültesini başkalarının etkisi altında seçen öğrenciler, alkol tüketen öğrenciler, öğretim üyeleriyle zayıf ilişkileri olan öğrenciler ve idari personelle orta veya zayıf ilişkileri olan öğrenciler arasında daha yüksek ortalama puanlar ortaya koydu (p<0,05).
Sonuç: Tıp öğrencileri arasındaki alaycılık derecesi orta düzeydeydi. Tıp okumak isteyen öğrencilerin önceden rehberlik almalarını ve müfredata göre iletişim becerilerini geliştirmelerini şiddetle öneriyoruz.

Objective: Cynicism is a negative emotion and attitude stemming from unfulfilled expectations. Our study aimed to determine the degrees of cynicism and relevant factors among medical students enrolled in a university for five years.
Methods: The population of this cross-sectional descriptive study comprised students enrolled in the first five years of the Faculty of Medicine. The online questionnaire used in the study consisted of 37 questions. We collected our data by administering the participants the “Cynical Attitudes Toward College Scale,” a 5-point Likert-type questionnaire with five groups composed of eleven questions related to their socio-demographic characteristics, three on their health status, five on the faculty, and eighteen on the educational institution. The analyses were performed using the SPSS 17.0 package software.
Results: The study included 342 students. The mean score was 54.6 ± 10.4. The multiple analysis revealed higher mean scores among male students, students who selected medical school under the influence of others, students who consumed alcohol, students with poor relationships with faculty members, and students with moderate or poor relationships with administrative staff (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The degree of cynicism among medical students was moderate. We strongly recommend that students who desire to study medicine should seek prior guidance and improve their communication skills based on the curriculum.
