“…With limitations of consensus on the threshold adopted and filtering used, there are also some interesting studies that support EDA as the moderator between depression and suicidal ideation in patients with anxiety and depressive symptoms ( Sarchiapone et al, 2018 ; Pruneti et al, 2023 ). These parameters can be measured with wearable monitoring devices and can provide data for psychological-related issues ( Hickey et al, 2021 ) and the evaluation and monitoring of work-related performance ( Bhoja et al, 2020 ; Claverie et al, 2020 ). Particularly, psychophysiological variables are gaining interest in the assessment of stress and burnout in the field of occupational medicine ( De Looff et al, 2018 ).…”

AimTo the best of our knowledge, dental school students have never been evaluated for stress, anxiety, burnout, physiological indexes during a 24-h working day, and executive function performance post-work and post-work after returning from vacation; therefore, this research has been conducted.MethodsData were acquired at the Dental School of the University of Padua on 16 students in their 4th year, far from the exam session. While performing clinical activity on the dental chair and during a working day, electrodermal activity (EDA), heart rate variability (HRV), and heart rate (HR) were recorded. Participants’ stress was measured with the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10 scale) and anxiety with the General Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire (GAD-7) and State–Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y-2), while burnout with the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS). Executive functions were evaluated using the Tower of London test (TOL-R).ResultsThree students (2F/1M) had a GAD-7 score ≥ 10. Five students (4F/1M) showed trait anxiety. Moderate levels of perceived stress were reported in 85% of participants. MBI-HSS showed that 7 participants scored high on emotional exhaustion and 7 on depersonalization. TOL-R performance (M = 15.85, SD = 4.01) was below the normative value p < 0.00001. A second test, after the holidays, showed normal values. EDA was higher during children’s treatment (p < 0.05), ANOVA showed high HR during working time (p < 0.001), and HRV was higher in males (p < 0.001).ConclusionBased on the sample size evaluated, it is reported that being a dental student has a moderate impact on stress, anxiety, and burnout while a strong impact on executive functions buffered by rest.
