Self-esteem is one of the most important psychological determinants. This study aimed to determine the level of self-esteem and its association with academic achievement among students of Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences (KUMS). This cross-sectional study was carried out among 300 students in KUMS in 2016. The sample population was selected using probability proportionalto-size method in all faculties. Participants filled out a self-reporting questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 with t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson correlation statistical tests at 95% significant level. We found that MD students had higher selfesteem (P < 0.017). There was a significant relationship between mother’s education level and self-esteem (P < 0.001). In addition, self-esteem was significantly correlated with academic achievement (r = 0.292). From our results, it appears that planning psychological interventions to increase levels of self-esteem may be useful in promoting academic achievement.
自尊是最重要的心理决定因素之一。本研究旨在探讨克尔曼沙医科大学学生的自尊水平及其与学业成绩的关系。这项横断面研究于2016年在库姆斯大学的300名学生中进行。各院系样本总体采用概率比例大小法进行选择。参与者填写了一份自我报告问卷。数据分析采用SPSS version 20,采用t检验、单因素方差分析和Pearson相关统计检验,在95%显著水平下。我们发现MD学生有较高的自尊(P < 0.017)。母亲受教育程度与自尊有显著相关(P < 0.001)。自尊与学业成绩显著相关(r = 0.292)。从我们的研究结果来看,计划心理干预以提高自尊水平可能有助于提高学业成绩。
