Aim: It was aimed to determine the levels of life satisfaction and hopelessness of medical faculty students and to reveal their effects on each other.
Materials and Methods: The data of the cross-sectional and descriptive study were collected by applying the Life Satisfaction Scale (LSS) and Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) questionnaire to medical students studying in the 2021-2022 academic year.
Results: The mean age of 315 students participating in the study was 21.72±2.3 years and 57.8% (n=182) were female. The factors affecting hopelessness and life satisfaction were: the class they were studying in, their income, having daily activities, social relations, the culture they were born into, the effects of their family and religion they believe in, their satisfaction with the city they live in and their career choice, and their career plans after graduation. The SWLS score of the students in the preclinical years (14.98±4.0) was significantly higher than that of the students in the clinical years (13.12±3.8) (p=0.001). There was a strong negative correlation between life satisfaction and hopelessness score (r=-0.618; p<0.001).
Conclusion: In medical education, increasing hopelessness and decreasing life satisfaction as clinical years pass is remarkable. Dissatisfaction with the city of residence and the chosen career are two important factors that decrease students' life satisfaction and increase their hopelessness.
