“…In this way, to be a good doctor, it would be necessary to show strength and resistance since the beginning of the course, including in the experience of hazing. Akerman et al 7 identified some of these ideas in hazing narratives of the students: "Going through some ordeals, such as doing numerous pushups led by veterans, is justified as necessary, as the physician must have 'tough skin'(p. 627).…”

“…According to Cimino 6 , the hazing presents four basic characteristics: it is temporary (extinguished at the end of the initiation period), it is unidirectional, coercive and may allow the formation of alliances of cooperation, the latter being one of the arguments presented by its defenders 6 . Akerman et al 7 argue that in some Brazilian medical schools, hazing is never extinguished, persisting throughout the first year, and often throughout the undergraduate course; it is always possible for an older student to submit the younger one to situations that can be considered as hazing. It is also argued that the perpetuation of hazing would be related to the importance of hierarchy and power -in medical institutions 7,8 .…”

Introduction: The practice of hazing is a phenomenon that began in the Middle Ages and persists in many universities around the world. In Brazil, although the problem is widely recognized, it has been insufficiently studied. Objective: To estimate the prevalence and to identify factors associated with the occurrence of hazing in a public Medical School, located in the interior of the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted, including 477 medical students from the first to the sixth year of the course. The self-reporting questionnaire included questions and structured instruments to access: socio-demographic and academic life characteristics, social support, symptoms of depression, harmful alcohol use (using the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test — Audit), common mental disorder (using the Self-Reporting Questionnaire — SRQ) and if the participant had suffered any form of hazing that he/she considered abusive or if the participant had practiced hazing about which he/she felt guilty or regretful afterwards. Bivariate analyses and logistic regression were conducted to identify factors independently associated with each of the outcomes (having suffered abusive hazing or having participated in hazing and feeling regretful afterwards). Results: The response rate was 87.0%. Among the students, 39.8% (95% Cl: 35.4% — 44.2%) reported having suffered abusive hazing, while 7.5% (95% CI: 5.2% — 9.9%) reported having practiced hazing of which they repented. Being subjected to abusive hazing was associated with: male gender, not being adapted to the city, presenting lower scores on the social support scale and psychiatric and/or psychological treatment after admission to university. Having practiced hazing, in turn, was associated with male gender, older age and higher score in the Audit. Conclusion: Hazing was associated with male gender, and with the pursuit of mental health treatment among those who received it and with harmful alcohol use among the perpetrators. It is essential that medical schools discuss and better understand the problem of hazing in order to adopt effective preventive measures.

“…Deste modo, para ser bom médico, seria preciso mostrar força e resistência, desde o ingresso na faculdade, inclusive na vivência do trote. Akerman et al 7 identificaram algumas destas ideias nas narrativas de estudantes acerca do trote: "Passar por algumas provações, como, por exemplo, fazer inúmeras flexões comandadas por veteranos, é justificado como necessário, pois o médico tem que ter 'couro duro'" (p. 627). Além da alegação de que o trote serviria como um marcador de força e da suposta potência para lidar com as vicissitudes da carreira médica, outro argumento frequentemente apresentado por seus defensores é que ele aumentaria a coesão grupal, criando amizades 14,42 .…”

“…São atos que persistem ao longo do ano, fazendo imaginar que o bullying (atitudes agressivas, intencionais e repetidas que ocorrem sem motivação evidente e adotadas por um ou mais estudantes contra outro(s), causando dor e angústia, e executadas dentro de uma relação desigual de poder) descrito e relatado no ensino fundamental e médio está também presente no ensino universitário 1 . Portanto, o trote tem sido um instrumento significativo para justificar e perpetrar o bullying na faculdade, onde há a clara distinção entre "o mais forte" e "o mais fraco".…”
