    (Behavioral Sciences, 2024-07-25) Hancco-Monrroy, Dante E.; Caballero-Apaza, Luz M; Abarca-Fernández, Denices; Castagnetto, Jesus M.; Condori-Cardoza, Fany A; De-Lama Moran, Raul; Carhuancho-Aguilar, Jose R.; Gutierrez, Sandra; Gonzales, Martha; Berduzco, Nancy; Delgado Bolton, Roberto C.; San-Martín, Montserrat; Vivanco, Luis
    Background: The COVID-19 pandemic introduced unprecedented challenges to medical education systems and medical students worldwide, making it necessary to adapt teaching to a remote methodology during the academic year 2020–2021. The aim of this study was to characterize the association between medical professionalism and dropout intention during the pandemic in Peruvian medical schools. Methods: A cross-sectional online-survey-based study was performed in four Peruvian medical schools (two public) during the academic year 2020–2021. Medical students, attending classes from home, answered three scales measuring clinical empathy, teamwork, and lifelong learning abilities (three elements of medical professionalism) and four scales measuring loneliness, anxiety, depression, and subjective wellbeing. In addition, 15 demographic, epidemiological, and academic variables (including dropout intention) were collected. Variables were assessed using multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: The study sample was composed of 1107 students (390 male). Eight variables were included in an explanatory model (Nagelkerke-R2 = 0.35). Anxiety, depression, intention to work in the private sector, and teamwork abilities showed positive associations with dropout intention while learning abilities, subjective wellbeing, studying in a public medical school, and acquiring a better perception of medicine during the pandemic showed a negative association with dropout intention. No association was observed for empathy. Conclusions: Each element measured showed a different role, providing new clues on the influence that medical professionalism had on dropout intention during the pandemic. This information can be useful for medical educators to have a better understanding of the influence that professionalism plays in dropout intention.

    Professionalism, emotional wellbeing, and dropout intention in health professions students during the pandemic
    (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2025-07-08) Hancco-Monrroy, Dante E; Caballero-Apaza, Luz M; Abarca-Fernández, Denices; Condori-Cardoza, Fany A.; de Lama-Morán, Raul; Carhuancho-Aguilar, Jose R; Gutiérrez, Sandra; Gonzales Sota, Martha H; Berduzco-Torres, Nancy; Delgado Bolton, Roberto C; Vivanco, Luis
    In March 2020, the WHO declared the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Peru was among the most affected countries, and one of the first ones to impose a strict lockdown. As a consequence, Peruvian universities were forced to change their classes from an in-person to a remote methodology during the academic year 2020–21. During this period, a cross-sectional online survey-based study was performed in medical and nursing faculties from four Peruvian universities (two of them public). The study sample, composed by 1707 undergraduate students (441 males) attending classes from home, answered three scales for measuring specific elements of professionalism (clinical empathy, teamwork, and lifelong learning abilities) in medicine and nursing, and four scales for measuring oneliness, anxiety, depression, and subjective wellbeing. In addition, 15 demographic, epidemiological, and academic variables (including dropout intention) were also collected. All this information is presented in a dataset that is available to other researchers and medical and nursing educators. Information concerning the data records, technical validation, and usage notes are also reported.
