A Study on the Current Status of Inferiority Complex Among Medical Vocational School Students in Guizhou and Its Correlation with Coping Strategies
Objective:To investigate the current status of inferiority complex among medical students and its correlation with coping strategies,providing references for mental health education and psychological inter-vention for college students.Methods:The Coping Style Questionnaire,Inferiority Scale,and a self-designed general information survey were administered to students at a medical vocational school in Guizhou.SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis including t-tests,Pearson correlation analysis,and multiple stepwise regression analysis of the collected data.Results:The total score of inferiority complex among medical students was 114.86±30.68.First-year students(117.49±28.69)scored higher than second-year students(112.93±31.95),females(119.68±30.22)higher than males(109.12±30.25),rural students(119.52±29.56)higher than urban students(110.30±34.45),and non-only children(115.94±29.67)higher than only children(107.90±35.84),with statistically significant differences(P<0.01).No significant eth-nic difference was found in inferiority complex(P>0.05).Correlation analysis revealed negative correlations between inferiority complex and problem-solving and seeking help coping strategies(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and positive correlations with self-blame,fantasy,avoidance,and rationalization coping strategies(P<0.01).Stepwise regression analysis indicated linear regression relationships between inferiority complex and problem-solving,self-blame,seeking help,and avoidance coping strategies(P<0.01),explaining 17.9%of the variation in inferiority complex.Conclusion:The level of inferiority complex among medical students in this Guizhou institution is moderately low,showing significant correlations with various coping strategies.Timely mental health education and interventions targeting inferiority complexes should be implemented to enhance the mental well-being of college students.
