ABSTRACT:
This descriptive study investigates the DISC personality types, spiritual intelligence, and perceived stress among medical students. Utilizing a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 71 pre-clinical medical students using DISC test, the Spiritual Intelligence Self-Report Inventory, and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). The study reveals that Steadiness (S) and Compliance (C) are the predominant personality types among the participants. There are no significant differences in spiritual intelligence across personality types, but notable differences in perceived stress levels, particularly among Dominance (D), Influence (I), and Steadiness-Compliance (SC) types.
