| Abstract | Cilj istraživanja: Ispitati utjecaj stresa kod studenata dentalne medicine, nadalje ispitati postoje li razlike u razini stresa obzirom na dob, spol, bračni status, prebivalište ili godinu studija. Nacrt studije: Presječno istraživanje
Ispitanici i metode: Ispitivanje je uključivalo 81 ispitanika koji su studenti 4., 5. i 6. godine Sveučilišnog integriranog prijediplomskog i diplomskog studija Dentalne medicine na Fakultetu za dentalnu medicinu i zdravstvo Osijek. U istraživanju je korišten upitnik koji se sastojao od dva dijela: demografskog upitnika i Upitnika o utjecaju stresa u stomatološkoj okolini (eng. Dental environmental stress questionnaire).
Rezultati: U istraživanju je sudjelovao 81 student dentalne medicine. Od ukupnog broja ispitanika najviše ih je bilo muškog spola 46 (56,8%), nije bilo u braku njih 77 (95,1%), 42 (51,9%) živjelo je u iznajmljenom stanu, a njih 33 (40,7%) bilo je na šestoj godini studija. Srednja vrijednost dobi iznosi M = 24,42 (SD = 2,67). Rezultati su pokazali da s obzirom na demografska obilježja (spol, dob, bračni status, prebivalište i godina studija) postoji značajna statistička razlika s obzirom na godinu studija.
Zaključak: Najvišu razinu stresa, ispitanici su izrazili u domeni „opterećenost radom“ što se odnosi na obveze na fakultetu, opterećenost dana te nedostatak vremena za odmor. Značajne statističke razlike s obzirom na dob, spol, prebivalište ili bračni status nisu uočene. Najmanja razina stresa uočena je u domeni „socijalni stresori“ što se odnosi na financijske odgovornosti, probleme bračne prilagodbe te potrebe za odgađanjem roditeljstva. |
| Abstract (english) | Objectives: To examine the impact of stress on dental students and to investigate whether there are differences in stress levels based on age, gender, marital status, residence, or year of study.
Study design: Cross-sectional study
Respondents and methods: The study involved 81 students in the 4th, 5th, and 6th year of the Integrated undergraduate and graduate university programe of Dental medicine at the Faculty of Dental Medicine and Health in Osijek. The research used a questionnaire in two parts: a demographic questionnaire and the dental environmental stress questionnaire.
Results: 81 dental students participated in the study. The majority of participants were male (46, 56.8%), unmarried (77, 95.1%), lived in rented apartments (42, 51.9%), and were in their sixth year of study (33, 40.7%). The mean age was M = 24.42 (SD = 2.67). The results showed that, based on demographic characteristics (gender, age, marital status, residence, and year of study), there was a statistically significant difference regarding the year of study.
Conclusion: The "workload," section related to academic obligations, daily workload, and lack of time for rest, had the higest stress level. Other demographic characteristics such as age, gender, residence, or marital status showed no statistical difference. The "social stressors" section, related to financial responsibilities, marital adjustment issues, and the need to delay parenthood, had the lowest stress level. |
