医学学习通常被学生认为是一个紧张的环境，特别是在考试期间。研究发现，很高比例的医学生在考试期间经历了严重的心理困扰。本研究比较了两批在紧张的考试期间经历了不同选拔录取过程的一年级医学生的心理困扰的百分比和水平。对两批一年级医学生进行了比较横断面研究;一组是根据学术成绩（2008/2009年批次）选择的，另一组是根据学术成绩，心理测试和面试（2009/2010年批次）选择的。采用一般健康问卷（GHQ-12）测量心理困扰。这些数据是在期末考试后收集的。2008/2009学年共有99名（46.05%）医学生参加，2009/2010学年共有196名（100%）医学生参加。2008/2009和2009/2010两届医学生存在心理困扰的比例分别为58.59%和42.3%。两批患者的平均GHQ-12评分和心理困扰百分比差异有统计学意义（p< 0.01）。老年组发生心理困扰的风险是新组的2.01倍（p< 0.01）。新一届医学生的心理健康状况比老一届好，在应激期发生心理困扰的可能性比老一届小。
The study of medicine is often regarded by students as a stressful environment particularly during examination period. Studies found a high percentage of medical students experience significant psychological distress during the examination period. This study compared percentage and level of psychological distress between two batches of first year medical students who underwent different selection admission processes during a stressful examination period. A comparative cross-sectional study was done on two batches of first year medical students; one group selected based on academic merit (2008/2009 batch) and the other selected based on academic merit, psychometric tests and interview (2009/2010 batch). The psychological distress was measured by the 12-item general health questionnaire (GHQ-12). The data were collected right after the final examinations. A total of 99 (46.05%) medical students of the 2008/2009 batch and 196 (100%) medical students of the 2009/2010 batch participated. The percentage of medical students who had psychological distress of the 2008/2009 and the 2009/2010 batches were 58.59% and 42.3%, respectively. The mean GHQ-12 score and percentage of psychological distress were significantly different between the two batches (p< 0.01). The older batch had 2.01 times higher risk for developing psychological distress compared with the newer batch (p< 0.01). The newer batch of medical students had better psychological health status and was less likely to develop psychological distress during the stressful period compared with older batch.
