Considering the importance of the length of study of PhD students and the lack of information about the reasons for its increase, this study was performed to identify the related factors. Methods: There was a descriptive- correlational study. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire. A total of 118 faculty members participated in completing the questionnaires. 37 employees and 71 students also completed the questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using descriptive and analytical statistics with SPSS 24 software as well as quantitative content analysis. Result: Factors related to the dissertation, especially the time-consuming publication of the defense condition article, had the greatest impact on increasing the length of study for PhD students. In quantitative content analysis, the most effective factors for students were dissertation-related factors and for faculty members and employees were personal issues. Conclusion: According to the results, it is necessary to modify the grant process. Deduct the length of the course while the student is waiting for the article to be published. Allocate research projects that have been paused for an additional semester, excluding the academic year. Also, a plan should be developed to increase financial support for students during their studies. 1232 General The Study on the Prevalence of Stressful Factors among Medical Students of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in 2020 Nader Mahdi h Yousefi Masoud i Khadem-Rezaiyan Majid j h School of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran i School of Medicine, Department of Microbiology and Virology, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran j Department of Community Medicine, School of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran 1 2 2022 16 4 244 256 01 08 2021 02 01 2022 Introduction: To solve any problem, it is necessary to first recognize that problem and examine the factors affecting that issue; therefore, a detailed study of stressors can help us improve the quality of education and mental health of students. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed at Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 2020-2021. The participants were chosen from medical students studying in various grades using convenient sampling method. The instrument used was the standard MSSQ which consists of 20 questions including 6 different dimensions: Stress Related to Academic Issues, Intrapersonal and Interpersonal Stress, Teaching and Learning Stress, Social Stress, Desire Stress, Group Activity Stress. Result: A total of 463 people participated in this study out of whom 51.4% (236 people) were male. Overall, 49% of students were in high/severe condition. The highest level of stress among all dimensions belongs to the stressors related to academic issues (63.5%) and the least stressful factor for students was desire-related stress (8.20%). There was a significant relationship between total stress and gender (higher in women than men). Conclusion: Considering that almost half of the students are in a high/severe state regarding stressful factors, effective training of students to manage stress and improve skills to reduce stress (e.g., by conducting workshops) would be promising.   1248 Medical Education The Necessity of Art Integration in Medical Education from the Viewpoints of Education Experts Bahrami Afsane k Abedi Farshid l Ramazanzade Khaironnesa m Farrokhfall Khadijeh n k Clinical Research Development Unit, Imam Reza Hospital, Faculty of medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran l Infectious Diseases Research Center, Birjand University of Medical Sciences, Birjand, Iran m Department of Education, Faculty of Education and Psychology, University of Birjand, Birjand, Iran n Cardiovascular Diseases Reaserch Center, Birjand University of Medical Sciences, Birjand, Iran 1 2 2022 16 4 257 270 10 09 2021 09 11 2021 Introduction: Medicine is not only a biological science, but also includes the art of dealing with human and spiritual dimensions. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the views of medical education professionals and students regarding the integration of art in the medical science curriculum. Method: In this multi-method research, 22 prominent experts in the field of education and 35 medical education students participated. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire with seven questions about the need to combine art in medical education, which was done simultaneously with quantitative study, qualitative study and data analysis. Quantitative study method was used descriptively-analytically and content analysis was used in the qualitative part .The face validity and content of the instrument were confirmed by professors and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α = 0.832). Result: Basically, 100% of the experts and 80% of the medical students agreed with the integration of art in medical education. They also acknowledged that it does not officially exist in the country's universities and it is necessary to include in the medical curriculum.
