Abstract
[Purpose] To investigate the anxiety with campus life of department of physical therapy students. [Subjects] Seventy third-year university students, facing long-term practical training outside the campus. [Methods] The students were surveyed using the college life anxiety scale. [Results] In the comparison of students repeating the same year with those who were not, uneasiness with everyday life was higher in the former. In the comparison of males and females, uneasiness with everyday life and the total anxiety assessment were higher among males, and maladjustment to university was higher among females. [Conclusion] Because uneasiness with everyday life is higher among students repeating the same year, support for these students is especially necessary. In this study, long-term practical training outside the campus was considered to have influenced students’ uneasiness with everyday life; therefore, it will be necessary to confirm the chronological changes by comparing students’ conditions between pre- and post-practice.
