AB - Happiness is one of the most important values or goals in life. Stress is one of the factors that can negatively affect levels of happiness, and medical students can experience high levels of stress during their studies. The purpose of this study was to analyze the perception of happiness among medical students. The study used Q-methodology, which provides a method of analyzing the subjectivity of each item. Thirty-four selected Q-statements from each of 34 subjects were classified into a normal distribution using a 9-point scale. The collected data were analyzed using a PC-QUANL program. Three types of perception of happiness were identified in the subjects: ‘comfort’ (15 persons), ‘self-satisfaction’ (10 persons), and ‘accomplishment’ (13 persons). When there are programsoffering opportunities for leisure activities, such as rest and travel, medical students’levels of satisfaction go up. On the basis of these findings we suggest that the concept of happiness should perhaps be included in the medical curriculum.
