Three questionnaires were employed: 1) Demographic data 2) The Suanprung stress test 3) The Brief COPE inventory Thai version.

Factors associated with coping strategies were analyzed by means of chi-square or kruskal-wallis test. Results: There were 827 respondents from 1,109 medical students, and 74.6% response rate. The majority of medical students were female (60.7%) with moderate and high stress level scores (44.9% and 38.6%, respectively). The medical students commonly used adaptive coping strategies (self-distraction, acceptance, active coping, and positive reframing) rather than maladaptive coping strategies (denial and substance use). According to the association between general demographic characteristics and coping strategies, we found that; gender, GPA, religion and medical illness had significant correlation with adaptive coping strategies. Whereas, high stress levels were significantly associated with maladaptive coping strategies. Conclusion: Most medical students use adaptive coping strategies. Gender, GPA, religion and medical illness had significant correlation with adaptive coping strategies.
