目的
心理压力已被证明会影响医学和研究生的学习和表现。很少有研究探讨心理压力在脊椎按摩学生和实习生。本研究旨在探讨实习生在专业训练中期对压力与自信的看法。
方法
本研究采用混合方法，结合量表和改良的质性方法，探讨实习生的生活经验。88名实习生对压力和信心进行了评级，并对广泛的问题作出了叙述性回答。
结果
参与者报告了多种压力来源;压力和信心评级呈负相关。实习生将压力描述为被迫优先考虑，时间不足和对表现不佳的看法。两个主题，“传达尊重”和“指导现实世界的学习”，描述了教师的行动，最大限度地减少压力和促进信心。
结论
脊医实习生经历不同程度的压力，这是管理与不同的策略。信心的发展似乎受到提供反馈的一致性和方式的影响。虽然教师不能控制压力的大小或来源，但了解实习生的看法可以加强我们作为教育工作者的有效性。
OBJECTIVE
Psychological stress has been shown to influence learning and performance among medical and graduate students. Few studies have examined psychological stress in chiropractic students and interns. This preliminary study explored interns' perceptions around stress and confidence at the midpoint of professional training.
METHODS
This pilot study used a mixed-methods approach, combining rating scales and modified qualitative methods, to explore interns' lived experience. Eighty-eight interns provided ratings of stress and confidence and narrative responses to broad questions.
RESULTS
Participants reported multiple sources of stress; stress and confidence ratings were inversely related. Interns described stress as forced priorities, inadequate time, and perceptions of weak performance. Two themes, "convey respect" and "guide real-world learning," describe faculty actions that minimized stress and promoted confidence.
CONCLUSION
Chiropractic interns experience varying degrees of stress, which is managed with diverse strategies. The development of confidence appears to be influenced by the consistency and manner in which feedback is provided. Although faculty cannot control the amount or sources of stress, awareness of interns' perceptions can strengthen our effectiveness as educators.
