Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected medical education. However, little data are available about medical students’ distress during the pandemic. Objective: This study aimed to provide details on how medical students have been affected by the pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 717 medical students participated in the web-based survey. The survey included questions about how the participants’ mental status had changed from before to after the Japanese nationwide state of emergency (SOE). Results: Out of 717 medical students, 473 (66.0%) participated in the study. In total, 29.8% (141/473) of the students reported concerns about the shift toward online education, mostly because they thought online education would be ineffective compared with in-person learning. The participants’ subjective mental health status significantly worsened after the SOE was lifted (P<.001). Those who had concerns about a shift toward online education had higher odds of having generalized anxiety and being depressed (odds ratio [OR] 1.97, 95% CI 1.19-3.28) as did those who said they would request food aid (OR 1.99, 95% CI 1.16-3.44) and mental health care resources (OR 3.56, 95% CI 2.07-6.15). Conclusions: Given our findings, the sudden shift to online education might have overwhelmed medical students. Thus, we recommend that educators inform learners that online learning is not inferior to in-person learning, which could attenuate potential depression and anxiety.

COVID-19大流行对日本医学生心理困扰的影响:横断面调查研究

背景:COVID-19大流行对医学教育产生了负面影响。但是,关于大流行期间医学生的困扰的数据很少。目的:本研究旨在提供有关医学生如何受到大流行影响的详细信息。方法:进行横断面研究。共有717名医学生参加了基于网络的调查。该调查包括有关参与者的心理状态从日本全国紧急状态(SOE)之前到之后如何变化的问题。结果:在717名医学生中,有473名(66.0%)参加了研究。总的来说,有29.8%(141/473)的学生表示对转向在线教育的担忧,主要是因为他们认为与面对面学习相比,在线教育的效果不佳。取消SOE后,参与者的主观心理健康状况显着恶化(P <.001)。那些担心转向在线教育的人与普遍焦虑和沮丧的几率更高(优势比[OR] 1.97,95%CI 1.19-3.28),那些表示将要求获得粮食援助的人(OR 1.99,95) %CI 1.16-3.44)和精神卫生保健资源(OR 3.56,95%CI 2.07-6.15)。结论:根据我们的发现,突然转向在线教育可能使医学生不知所措。因此,我们建议教育工作者告知学习者,在线学习不逊于面对面学习,后者可以减轻潜在的抑郁和焦虑。那些担心转向在线教育的人与普遍焦虑和沮丧的几率更高(优势比[OR] 1.97,95%CI 1.19-3.28),那些表示将要求获得食品援助的人(OR 1.99,95) %CI 1.16-3.44)和精神卫生保健资源(OR 3.56,95%CI 2.07-6.15)。结论:根据我们的发现,突然转向在线教育可能使医学生不知所措。因此,我们建议教育工作者告知学习者,在线学习不逊于面对面学习,后者可以减轻潜在的抑郁和焦虑。那些担心转向在线教育的人与普遍焦虑和沮丧的几率更高(优势比[OR] 1.97,95%CI 1.19-3.28),那些表示将要求获得食品援助的人(OR 1.99,95) %CI 1.16-3.44)和精神卫生保健资源(OR 3.56,95%CI 2.07-6.15)。结论:根据我们的发现,突然转向在线教育可能使医学生不知所措。因此,我们建议教育工作者告知学习者,在线学习不逊于面对面学习,后者可以减轻潜在的抑郁和焦虑。突然转向在线教育可能使医学生不堪重负。因此,我们建议教育工作者告知学习者,在线学习不逊于面对面学习,后者可以减轻潜在的抑郁和焦虑。突然转向在线教育可能使医学生不堪重负。因此,我们建议教育工作者告知学习者,在线学习不逊于面对面学习,后者可以减轻潜在的抑郁和焦虑。
