Psychische Belastungen in der Vorbereitung auf das erste juristische Staatsexamen

Changes to legal training have been intensively discussed for decades, but this has not led to far-reaching reforms. This interdisciplinary study provides new, evidence-based impetus for reform by focusing on psychological aspects of training. Using a quantitative cross-sectional study, Jessica Hamed tests hypotheses on the question of psychological stress in the context of exam preparation. The results of the study suggest that exam preparation places a great deal of stress on students. Based on the possible influencing factors identified, the author therefore makes specific recommendations for reform that can reduce mental stress.
