Burnout and quality of life among medical students in a conflict affected-region: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Medical education is inherently demanding, often compromising students' well-being, especially in conflict-affected regions. This study aims to 1) evaluate the burnout levels among medical students using the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey for Students (MBI-GSS), 2) assess quality of life (QoL) using the World Health Organization QoL scale (WHOQOL-BREF), and 3) identify predictors of burnout and QoL.

Methods

A cross-sectional online survey was conducted in English between May and June 2024. The questionnaire included sociodemographic data, MBI-GSS subscales (emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and professional efficacy respectively), and WHOQOL-BREF domains (physical, psychological, social, and environmental respectively). Bivariate and multivariable analyses
