description  The Medical residencies guarantee the academic and human apprenticeship and training of the future medical specialists. Nevertheless, there is evidence of maltreatment, discrimination and abuse against the medical residents. The purpose of this work was to identify experiences of physical, psychological or sexual violence of medical residents in the state of Veracruz, Mexico. A cross-sectional quantitative analysis was carried out focusing on a population of 656 residents from 16 receiving medical centers during 2014. Results indicate that 87 % reported at least one experience of physical violence during their medical internship as specialists. Additionally, and up to 50.46 % it reported psychological violence. The main aggressors were reported to be chiefs of service (33.5 %) and resident partners (33.5 %) and participants were more affected during the morning shift (34.76 %). 51.52 % of the participating population are males and 48.48 % are females. As regards The bivariate analysis revealed the following results: correlation between gender and psychological violence: X2 = 9.740 6, P = 0.004; physical violence: X2 = 4.876 4, P = 0.003; and sexual violence: X2 = 4.868 4, P = 0.001. Males reported higher aggression rates in their medical internships since they were subject to higher levels of psychological, physical and sexual violence. The results of the study emphasize the importance of forging institutional values as an integral part of medical residency programs. Respect and the dignity among medical residents, superiors and health professionals who are involved in training and apprenticeships of specialists should be promoted.

Sin embargo, existe evidencia de maltrato, discriminación y abusos en los residentes médicos. El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar experiencias de violencia física, psicológica o sexual de los residentes médicos del estado de Veracruz, México. Se realizó un estudio transversal descriptivo, mediante una metodología cuantitativa, de una población conformada por 656 médicos residentes de 16 unidades receptoras durante el año 2014. El 87 % reportó por lo menos una experiencia de agresión en su tiempo de formación como especialistas y hasta el 50.46 % refirió violencia psicológica. Sus principales agresores fueron jefes de servicio (33.5 %) y compañeros residentes (33.5 %), viéndose más afectados en el turno matutino (34.76 %). De la población total, 51.52 % son hombres y 48.48 % mujeres. En relación al análisis bivariado se obtuvieron los siguientes resultados: correlación entre sexo y violencia psicológica: X2= 9.740 6, P = 0.004; violencia física: X2= 4.876 4, P = 0.003; y violencia sexual: X2= 4.868 4, P = 0.001. Los varones presentaron tasas de agresión más altas en el grupo de médicos residentes sometidos a mayor nivel de violencia psicológica, física y sexual. Con este estudio se enfatiza la importancia de forjar valores institucionales en la práctica médica, como el respeto y la dignidad, entre los médicos residentes, superiores y/o profesionales que intervienen en la formación y perfeccionamiento de sus especialidades.  Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas 2018-01-31 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/xml https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/852 10.29059/cienciauat.v12i2.852 CienciaUAT; Vol. 12 No. 2: January-June 2018; 54-66 CienciaUAT; Vol. 12 No. 2: Enero-Junio 2018; 54-66 2007-7858 2007-7521 spa https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/852/420 https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/852/475 https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/852/638 Derechos de autor 2018 CienciaUAT
