Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Stress and rumination are linked with the development of many mental disorders. The ECOSTRESS study has shown that poor OSCE performance has a positive effect on the occurence of state-rumination among 4th year medicine students in the context of mock exams.

The goal of IMSR study is to assess the effectiveness of a post-OSCE meditation intervention to decrease psychological stress and rumination.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This randomized, controlled and monocentric study will be conducted during the OSCE tests contributing towards the final exam grades for 4th year medicine students at the Claude Bernard Lyon 1 university.

Before the test (OSCE), all the students will receive information about the study and formalize their consent.

The students' OSCE performance will be evaluated by an independent examiner as part of the students' exams. Upon finishing the OSCE, the students will be divided into two groups: one subjected to post-OSCE meditation and the other one subjected to a control intervention (neutral content video).

Before both interventions, all the students will be submitted to short questionnaires regarding their feelings.

During the 6-min intervention they will be get equipped with an ear pulse sensor.

Following both interventions, all the students will be submitted to short questionnaires regarding their stress and rumination levels.

The main objective is to assess the effectiveness of meditation intervention to diminish post-OSCE rumination level. The second objective is to have a deeper understanding of the cause of rumination following the OSCE..
