Prevalence of depression and distress in a large sample of Canadian residents, interns, and fellows
K Hsu and V Marshall
Department of Behavioural Science, University of Toronto, Ont., Canada.
Using data from 1,805 interns, residents, and fellows in Ontario, Canada,
the authors report the prevalence of symptoms measured by the Center for
Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). They found that the
proportion of subjects scoring as depressed was somewhat higher than that
found in community studies. Women had higher depression scores than men.
The proportion of unmarried house staff with moderate or severe depression
scores was higher than that of married house staff. Considerable
differences were found by specialty, and depression was most prevalent in
the first year of postgraduate training. These findings have implications
for those who direct postgraduate medical training or who seek to alleviate
unnecessary stress in the postgraduate education experience.
