title: Stress in medical undergraduates and house officers.
abstract: Junior doctors, and to a lesser extent medical students, suffer higher rates of stress and depression than the general population. While some of the causes of these problems may lie with the individual, others are associated with organizational and career factors and with a training which still does not prepare them for those first postgraduate years.
