Abstract:
Objective: To deeply investigate the influential factors of mental health in medical students by structural equation modeling.Methods: 480 medical students were tested with SCL-90,adolescent self-rating life events check list and simplified coping style questionnaire,then theoretical model were established and confirmed for the relationships of life events,satisfaction degree with their profession,coping styles and mental health.Results: Study stress,human relations,satisfaction degree towards their profession and coping styles closely correlated with mental health status,and the structural equation modeling fitted the data very well,GFI and AGFI were both larger than 0.90.Conclusion: Use of structural equation modeling has more advantages than the traditional statistical methods,but it should combine with professional knowledge when it is used.
