Introduction: The medical profession is acknowledged as one of the most stressful. The time devoted to acquire knowledge and practical skills is a source of stress for students, but also an opportunity to learn how to deal with it. Aim of the research: To assess how medical students deal with stress during their first clinical practice. Material and methods: The study was conducted in a group of 526 students of: nursing, physiotherapy, medical rescue, and obstetrics at a university. The research tools included: an original questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale, and the Stress Management Inventory. The dependence between variables was established using the Spearman's rank correlation. A significance level of α = 0.05 was assumed in the tests. Results: Almost half of the students experienced high levels of stress, and more than half of them manifested high levels of self-efficacy. The participants dealt with difficult situations mainly by active coping, planning, and seeking instrumental support. The paramedics and the midwives more often turned to active coping than did the physiotherapists. Younger people were more inclined to choose strategies associated with seeking support (rho =-0.134, p = 0.001). It was shown that strategies of managing difficult situations based on helplessness were more often followed by older people (rho = 0.126, p = 0.002). The greater sense of self-efficacy in the participants, the more often they chose active stress coping strategies. Conclusions: Active stress management strategies should be developed in students also to strengthen their sense of selfefficacy. Streszczenie Wprowadzenie: Wykonywanie zawodów medycznych uznawane jest za jedno z najbardziej stresujących zajęć. Czas poświęcony na zdobywanie wiedzy i umiejętności praktycznych jest również źródłem stresu dla studentów kierunków medycznych, a także okazją do nauczenia się, jak sobie z nim radzić. Cel pracy: Ocena, w jaki sposób studenci kierunków medycznych radzą sobie ze stresem podczas pierwszej praktyki klinicznej. Materiał i metody: Badanie przeprowadzono w grupie 526 studentów: pielęgniarstwa, fizjoterapii, ratownictwa medycznego i położnictwa. Narzędzia badawcze obejmowały: autorski kwestionariusz ankiety, Skalę odczuwanego stresu i Inwentarz radzenia sobie ze stresem. Zależność między zmiennymi ustalono za pomocą korelacji rang Spearmana. W testach przyjęto poziom istotności α = 0,05. Wyniki: Prawie połowa studentów doświadczyła wysokiego poziomu stresu, ponad połowa z nich miała wysoki poziom poczucia własnej skuteczności. Studenci radzili sobie ze stresem poprzez aktywne zarządzanie, planowanie i poszukiwanie instrumentalnego wsparcia. Ratownicy medyczni i położne częściej podejmowali aktywne formy radzenia sobie niż fizjoterapeuci. Osoby młodsze były bardziej skłonne wybierać strategie związane z poszukiwaniem wsparcia (rho =-0,134, p = 0,001). Wykazano, że osoby starsze częściej stosowały strategie radzenia sobie z trudnymi sytuacjami oparte na bezradności (rho = 0,126, p = 0,002). Im większe było poczucie włas...

“…Several studies have demonstrated a positive relationship between teachers' well-being and their efficacy in teaching [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. However, practical and applied research on training programs to improve teacher well-being and efficacy is still needed, particularly in light of the extreme challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis.…”

Overcoming the impact of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) on primary schools is an emerging need and priority in the current social welfare system. Accordingly, this study presents an empirical learning package to support teachers, who perform frontline work in schools, in coping with stress, preventing burnout, improving their information and communications technology (ICT) competency, and introducing the principles of emotional intelligence (EI) in the classroom. The participants included 141 primary school teachers (M = 38.4 years, SD = 6.84; 54.6% women). They were randomly assigned to an experimental or control group. The experimental group participated in the 14-week teacher training program, whereas the control group did not participate in the program or receive any other training during the intervention. Repeated-measures analysis of variance (time x group) was performed to identify the effects of the teacher training program. Teachers who participated in the training program evaluated it positively and showed significant differences compared to the control group in their abilities to cope with stress and avoid burnout, their ICT competency, and their introduction of EI in the classroom. Implications for supporting teachers are discussed.

The Coparenting Relationship Scale (CRS) is a 35-item self-report measure used to assess subjective evaluation of the relationship between parents. Developed and applied in the United States, it was translated and adapted in other countries. The article presents a Polish adaptation of the CRS. The study included 802 respondents (514 mothers, 288 fathers). In comparison to the original 7-factor structure of the original CRS, in our case, we excluded the division of labor factor and achieved satisfactory goodness-of-fit criteria upon the inclusion of the method factor with reverse-worded (RW) items. We also attempted to test measurement invariance by gender and across two cultural contexts: comparing with the USA and Switzerland. In all cases, at least scalar invariance was achieved, allowing for comparisons between the mentioned groups. We also verified construct validity, which allowed us to demonstrate convergent validity when the CRS was correlated with the Enrich Marital Satisfaction Scale and Parental Distress Scale, as well as discriminant validity when the CRS was correlated with the Lie Scale from the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised. The results of statistical analyses show that the Polish CRS is a valid and reliable measure of the coparenting relationship.
