description Introduction: Academic performance is a product of the complex environment that surrounds the student, shaped by aspects such as intensity of study, motivation and context of relationships, which affect the academic achievement of individuals. There may be other psychological or emotional factors, such as anxiety, level of psychological wellbeing, and behavior strategies for effective adaptation to concrete environment demandsand their associated emotional stress.Objectives: This research study aims at determining the level of sychological well-being and coping strategies in students of the Basic Common Cycle of studies leading to an MD degree in the School of Medicine of the National University of Córdoba, Argentina.Methods and materials: This is an observational study based on a “Questionnaire on determiners of academic performance”, that was answered by 374 students. Data was processed using statistical bivariate analysis (p < 0.05) and multiple correspondence factorial analysis.Results: Students with “VG/G (Very Good/Good) performance” show high levels of satisfaction and well-being use direct coping strategies which lead them to “cope with problematic situations” by means of “problem solving”. Students with “R/I (Regular/Insufficient) academic performance” declare “dissatisfaction with most aspects of their personalities”, feel unable to give a satisfactory response to environment demands, and assume “avoidance behaviors” as coping strategies.Conclusions: Student academic performance is associated with psychological well-being, feeling of satisfaction with achievements, and coping with stressful situations.

Otros factores pueden ser psicológicos o emocionales tales como la ansiedad, el grado de bienestar psicológico y las estrategias conductuales tendientes a lograr una adaptación efectiva a las demandas concretas del ambiente y al estrés emocional asociado.Objetivos: En esta investigación se propuso identificar el nivel de bienestar psicológico y las estrategias de afrontamiento en los estudiantes del Ciclo Básico de la Carrera de Medicina y analizar la relación entre bienestar, afrontamiento y rendimiento académico.Material y método: Es un estudio observacional el cual se trabajó a partir del “Cuestionario Determinantes relacionados con el rendimiento académico” implementado a 374 alumnos. El análisis de los datos se efectuó a través del procesamiento estadístico con análisis bivariado (p<0,05) y análisis factorial de correspondencia múltiple.Resultados: Los alumnos con “Rendimiento MB/B” presentan altos niveles de satisfacción y bienestar utilizando un afrontamiento directo que contribuye a “enfrentar las situaciones que preocupan” mediante la “solución de problemas”. En tanto que los alumnos con “Rendimiento R/I” perciben “disgusto con la mayoría de los aspectos de su personalidad” sintiéndose impedidos para responder satisfactoriamente a las demandas del ambiente, asumiendo “comportamientos de evitación” como forma de afrontamiento.Conclusiones: El rendimiento académico de los estudiantes se asocia con la presencia de bienestar psicológico, satisfacción con respecto a los logros alcanzados y el afrontamiento de situaciones estresoras.
