Psychoneurotic profile of paramedical students assessed by CCE1

Two hundred students from the Institute of Medical Technology [I.M.T] were chosen randomly to assess their Psychoneurotic Profile [p.p] using the Arabic version of the Crown Crisp Experiential Index [CCEI] One hundred and eighty eight, 166 females and 22 males, responded correctly to the questionnaire, with an age range of 19-23 years. Their mean scores were higher than 3 other samples, one English and two Iraqi studied by CCEI Significantly higher mean scores were found for students living in lodgings, for those with Psychiatric Symptoms, and for those with inadequate income. The probable factors which account for these findings are discussed
