Research project Teacher and medical education - self-confidence, emotional challenges and moral stress.

Education and health care are complex organisations that place high psychological, cognitive and emotional demands on professionals. There therefore lies a great responsibility on teacher and medical education programmes to prepare students for future demands in professional life. However, there is currently a lack of knowledge about how students develop professional self-confidence during their education as teachers and physicians in a Swedish context.

The purpose of the project is to investigate teacher and medical students' development of professional self-confidence during their education. Professional self-confidence is also related to emotional challenges and moral stress.

Project title: A longitudinal study on professional self-confidence, emotional challenges and moral stress in teacher and medical education.
