Lo âu thi cử của sinh viên Y khoa Trường Đại học Y Dược Cần Thơ khi thi kết thúc tiền lâm sàng I: mức độ và các yếu tố liên quan
Tóm tắt
The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of test anxiety and associated factors among second-year medical students at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy in 2025. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted involving 382 students. Data were collected using the 20-item Test Anxiety Inventory (TAI), which assesses three domains: test confidence, emotionality, and worry. Statistical analysis of the association between anxiety and demographic variables was performed using SPSS version 26.0. The findings indicated that 37.4% of students experienced moderate-to-high levels of test anxiety, with 16.2% classified as having high anxiety. Scores for worry and emotionality were highest (37.25±8.85), whereas test confidence was notably low (2.30±0.80). Ethnicity was identified as a statistically significant factor contributing to increased test anxiety (p=0.050). The study recommends the implementation of psychological support programs and the refinement of assessment methods to mitigate student anxiety and enhance medical education quality.
