Megjegyzések:	Background Mental disorders constitute a public health problem in the general population and in the medical profession as well. Medical doctors as professionals are not only helpers in matters of health and disease but also role-models for patients. Therefore the mental health and health behaviour of future doctors is an important research issue. This was the focus of a health survey conducted among medical students at one university in Hungary. Methods A representative sample of all 1?5-year students filled a standardized self-administered questionnaire. The question naire included items on demographic data, self-perceived health, the 12-item version of the general health questionnaire (GHQ-12), a domain on social support, the abbreviated (13-item long) version of the sense of coherence scale, ques tions on body weight & height, physical activity, diet, smoking, alcohol & drug use and sexual behaviour. Results Eighty-one percent of invited students filled the questionnaire. Self-perceived health was good or very good according to more than three-quarters of the students. Mental health was mea sured by the 12-item general health questionnaire (GHQ) on which 19% of the students scored above the strict threshold indicating mental health problems. The prevalence of mental health problems was higher among medical students than in the same age group of the general population. The mean score of sense of coherence (SOC) measured by the abbreviated Antonovsky questionnaire was 62.5 (95% CI 60.3?64.7). SOC showed strong correlation with self-perceived health and mental health but not with health behaviour, specifically physical activity, diet and substance use. Conclusion The relatively high prevalence of mental health problems draws attention to the needs of future medical doctors to learn more about determinants of their mental health and to improve their stress-coping skills.
