چکیده
مقدمه: خودبیمارانگاری نوعی اختلال روانشناختی است که در آن فرد بر خلاف یافتههای بالینی بر این باور است که بیمار بوده و سلامتی وی در خطر است. مطالعه حاضر به بررسی فراوانی اختلال خودبیمارانگاری در دانشجویان رشتههای اتاق عمل و هوشبری دانشگاه علوم پزشکی شهید صدوقی یزد در سال 1403 پرداخته و ارتباط آن را با جنسیت، محل سکونت، وضعیت تاهل، رشته و ترم تحصیلی این دانشجویان جست‌وجو کرده است.

روش: این مطالعه از نوع توصیفی_تحلیلی به‌صورت مقطعی برروی 93 نفر از دانشجویان رشتههای اتاق عمل و هوشبری دانشگاه علوم پزشکی شهید صدوقی یزد در سال 1403 به روش سرشماری انجام‌گرفت. دادهها از طریق پرسشنامههای چاپی جمعیت شناختی و خودبیمارانگاری ایوانز جمعآوری شدند؛ سپس دادهها با استفاده از آزمونهای آماری توصیفی و استنباطی با بهره‌گیری از نرم‌افزار SPSS-27 تحلیل‌شدند.

یافتهها: در این پژوهش شیوع اختلال خودبیمارانگاری در دانشجویان مورد مطالعه، 24/8 درصد بود. این اختلال به‌طور معناداری در دختران شایعتر و با وضعیت بومی بودن نیز همبستگی ضعیفی داشت که به‌طور مرزی معنادار بود. یافتههایی مبنی‌بر ارتباط معنادار بین وضعیت تاهل، رشته یا ترم تحصیلی با خودبیمارانگاری پیدا نشد.

نتیجهگیری: با توجه به شیوع نسبتا بالای علائم خودبیمارانگاری در دانشجویان مورد بررسی نسبت به مطالعات مشابه در ایران، ضروریست با انجام اقدامات مداخلهای، صحت و علت این مسئله مشخص شده تا از کاهش سلامت روان و افت عملکرد دانشجویان جلوگیری به عمل آید.

چکیده English

Introduction: Hypochondria is a type of psychological disorder in which an individual believes they are ill and that their health is at risk, contrary to clinical findings. This study investigates the prevalence of hypochondria among surgical technology and anesthesia students at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd in the year 2024 and explores its relationship with gender, residence status, marital status, field of study and educational level of these students.

Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 93 students from the surgical technology and anesthesia department at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd in the year 2024 using a census method. Data were collected through printed demographic questionnaires and a 36-item hypochondria questionnaire by Evans. The data were then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests, including frequency percentages, t-tests, and Pearson correlation coefficient, utilizing SPSS-27 software.

Results: In this study, the prevalence of hypochondria among the surveyed students was 24.8%. This disorder was significantly more common in females and showed a weak correlation with being a local resident, which was borderline significant. No significant findings were observed regarding the relationship between marital status, field of study, or academic term and hypochondria.

Conclusion: Considering the relatively high prevalence of hypochondriasis symptoms among the students studied compared to similar studies in Iran, it is essential to implement intervention measures to clarify the validity and causes of this issue in order to prevent a decline in mental health and academic performance among students.
