Existing research consistently connects higher relationship satisfaction with improved psychological and physical functioning. Investigations focusing on relational satisfaction within veterinary medicine have been sparse. This study evaluated 240 veterinary medical students at Kansas State University. Results indicate that students within higher-functioning relationships are more likely to report fewer depressive symptoms, lower stress associated with balancing their school and home lives, less relationship conflict, better physical health, and improved ability to cope with academic expectations, while at the same time experiencing more stress from being behind in studies. Based on these findings, Colleges of Veterinary Medicine (CVMs) are encouraged to institute policies and programs which foster relationship-building for students.
现有研究一致表明，较高的关系满意度与心理和身体机能的改善相关。专注于兽医学中关系满意度的调查一直很少。本研究对堪萨斯州立大学的240名兽医学学生进行了评估。结果表明，处于功能良好关系中的学生更有可能报告较少的抑郁症状、在平衡学业和家庭生活方面压力较小、关系冲突较少、身体健康状况较好、应对学业期望的能力有所提高，同时在学业落后方面会承受更多压力。基于这些发现，鼓励兽医学院制定促进学生建立人际关系的政策和项目。
