In this study, black, white, and Hispanic medical students are compared in terms of their psychosocial assets and mental health status when they entered medical school and after a year of medical training. The data show that the minority students entered medical school with some distinct advantages over the white students. The minority students reported greater social supports, higher self-esteem, lower anxiety, and more internal locus of control. After one year, however, the blacks manifested slightly lower self-esteem and higher levels of hostility and external locus of control. The Hispanics continued to report higher self-esteem and greater social supports but showed increased external locus of control and higher alcohol consumption. Policy implications for improvements in pre-entrance enrichment programs are discussed.
