Ambiguity tolerance among medical students and its relationship with personality and participation in the mentoring program: A cross-sectional study

摘要

Low ambiguity tolerance (AT) can lead to burnout and impact medical students’ quality of life. Interventions are effective in increasing tolerance in ambiguous situations. Mentors can be facilitators in ambiguous situations. We aimed to determine the AT among Tehran University of medical sciences (TUMS) medical students and assess its relation with personality traits and mentor-seeking behavior.
