Characteristics of test anxiety among medical students and congruence of strategies to address it

Example of lecture
Introduction: Medical students may experience test anxiety associated with ‘high stakes’ exams, such as Step 1 of the United States Medical Licensing Examination.
Methods: We collected qualitative responses about test anxiety at three points in time from 93 second-year medical students engaged in studying for and taking Step 1.
Results: Causes of test anxiety as reported by students were related to negative self-talk during preparation for the exam. Effects of anxiety had to do with emotional well-being, cognitive functioning, and physical well-being. Strategies included socializing with others and a variety of cognitive and physical approaches. Comparison of individuals’ strategies with causes and effects showed some congruence, but substantial incongruence between the types of strategies chosen and the reported causes and effects of test anxiety.

The hidden pain, frustration of fibromyalgia ; People suffer debilitating physical, mental trauma in search of answers, solutions as best they can: [ALL Edition]
Hessling-Goetz, Dana. Telegram & Gazette [Worcester, Mass] 14 Mar 2007: 8.

The term fibromyalgia is derived from the Greek word mys (muscle) and algos (pain). Yet fibromyalgia is so difficult to explain or decipher, it’s not even classified in medical textbooks.
Ms. Brudkenthal said, “My interest is the effect that this association of mental `illness’ has on the patient with fibromyalgia syndrome and with patient care. There is such a stigma in our society regarding mental illness. Yet people with all types of chronic illness also suffer depression and anxiety.
“Many patients with fibromyalgia syndrome have to go to several practitioners before they find one that will even validate their illness exists. And there is no single test to diagnose fibromyalgia syndrome. The diagnosis is made once other possible causes are ruled out.”
