The Medical Student Well-Being Index is a validated screening tool to evaluate fatigue, depression, burnout, anxiety/stress, and mental/physical quality of life in medical students. The index was developed through a rigorous process with multi-step validation with more than 19,600 individuals including separate studies of physicians, residents, medical students, nurses, advanced practice providers, pharmacy professionals, and general employees. Over 14,000 medical students have now used the index.

An individual’s scores is compared to normative data from a large national sample of US medical students. Evidence indicates that the index is useful not only for identifying medical students in distress, but also for identifying those whose degree of distress places them at risk for adverse consequences (e.g. suicidal ideation and/or serious thoughts of dropping out of medical school).
