Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship among self consistency and congruence,the feeling of inadequacy(FIS) and anxiety as well as the mediating effect of FIS between self consistency and congruence and anxiety.MethodsA total of 1164 students recruited from two medical colleges in Hebei province using cluster random sampling were investigated with scale for the feeling of inadequacy,self consistency and congruence scale and rating anxiety scale.ResultsThe relevance ratio of anxiety in Hebei medical colleges students was 42.7%.There were significant differences in the detection rate among genders(male:46.4%,female:40.5%),grade(freshman:38.9%,sophomore:41.0%,junior:47.5%)and family economic status(Preferably:38.5%,commonly:40.1%,badly:50.8%) in medical students(all P<0.05).There were no statistical significance for the incidence rates of students from different origins(P>0.05).Anxiety score was positively correlated with the score of self consistency and congruence(r=0.274,P<0.01),and was negatively correlated with the score of the feeling of inadequacy (r=-0.364,P<0.01).And the score of self consistency and congruence was negatively correlated with the score of feeling inadequacy(r=-0.335,P<0.01).Multiple stepwise regression analysis revealed that factors of the feeling of inadequacy and self consistency and congruence accounted for 35.6% of anxiety variance.The feeling of inadequacy played a mediating role in self consistency and congruence and anxiety.The mediating rate was 60.06%.ConclusionThe anxiety issue of medical students should be paid more attention.It is possible for the high level of feeling of inadequacy and low level of self consistency and congruence to increase the occurrence rate of anxiety.The feeling of inadequacy can strongly predict medical students'anxiety.
