The mediating role of psychological flexibility in the association of autistic-like traits with burnout and depression in medical students during clinical clerkships in Japan: a university-based cross-sectional study
Overview
This cross-sectional study investigates the association between autistic-like traits, psychological flexibility, and burnout or depression among medical students in Japan. The research identifies that lower personal accomplishment and depression are linked to these traits, with psychological flexibility processes such as progress toward values and cognitive fusion acting as mediators. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in understanding how acceptance and commitment therapy concepts relate to mental health outcomes in this specific student population.
