ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The authors investigated changes in medical students' defenses during clerkship and examined the effects of these changes on students' resilience.METHODS:
Between 2012 and 2014, all year-2 preclinical students (N = 249) at Gyeongsang National University Medical School were asked to participate. Those who agreed to participate (N = 237) completed the Korean version of the Defense Style Questionnaire (K-DSQ) and the Connor-Davidson resilience scale-10 (CD-RISC-10). After clerkship, students who proceeded to year 4 in 2 years (n = 187 (93 females), aged 24-38 years (mean, 28.9 ± 2.8 years)) completed the K-DSQ, CD-RISC-10, and the Korean version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (K-HADS) in September 2014, 2015, and 2016.RESULTS:
The use of adaptive (W = 11,603.5, p < 0.001, r = 0.39) and self-inhibiting (W = 10,901.5, p < 0.001, r = 0.32) styles increased significantly after clerkship. A multiple linear regression analysis showed that changes in adaptive defense styles (B = 1.336, SE = 0.386, ß = 0.218, p = 0.001) during clerkship were significantly related to resilience after adjusting for age, sex, depression, and anxiety.CONCLUSIONS:
Both positive personality development and maladaptive changes in defenses were evident. An increase in the adaptive defense style score was related to resilience.Palavras-chave
