Mental health problems can then occur. IP is most frequent in individuals with high academic and professional success, such as medical students and health professionals.  Aim:  To determine the prevalence of IP among general practice residents in Central Portugal, from the 1st to the 4th year of residency, in 2022, and its association with gender, year of residency, distress, anxiety, depression, and satisfaction with the average mark of the residency.  Methods:  A cross-sectional observational study was performed in a convenience sample. The Centre of Portugal Board of Residency in Family Medicine sent an invitation to respond to a Google questionnaire with the CIPS and PHQ-4 scales and questions about gender, year of residency, and satisfaction with the average mark of the residency. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed.  Results:  A sample of 62 (69.7%) of 89 participants was studied. 12.9% of respondents were experiencing few, 22.6% moderate, 43.5% frequent, and 21% intense impostor feelings, with females suffering significantly more from IP (p=0.036). The Spearman&#8217;s correlation between PHQ-4 and CIPS was very weak and not significant (&#961;=0.085, p=0.511).  Discussion:  With no other Portuguese data to compare with the present ones, possible explanations for a low response rate can have to do with fear of suffering IP, fear of showing the sufferance of IP, and answering the questionnaire and not sending it for fear.  Conclusion:  IP with a score at or above moderate has been detected in 87.1% of the residents. Women are more affected. No correlations were discovered between IP, distress, year of residency, and satisfaction with the average of the residentship. There is a need to recognize and manage IP, at both individual and institutional levels.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="pt"><p><![CDATA[Resumo  Introdução:  O fenómeno do impostor (FI) caracteriza indivíduos incapazes de reconhecer o seu sucesso, atribuindo-o à sorte ou a ter sido um erro. Estes indivíduos são propensos a desenvolver problemas de saúde mental, como stress, ansiedade e depressão. O FI é mais frequentemente associado a indivíduos com elevado sucesso académico e profissional, como estudantes de medicina e profissionais de saúde.  Objetivos:  Determinar a prevalência do FI nos internos de medicina geral e familiar (MGF), no Centro de Portugal, em 2022, segundo o sexo, o ano de internato, a média do internato e verificar a sua relação com o stress, ansiedade, depressão e satisfação.  Métodos:  Realizou-se estudo observacional transversal em amostra de conveniência. O convite para a resposta a questionário em formulário Google com as escalas CIPS e PHQ-4 e perguntas sobre sexo, ano de internato e satisfação com a nota média do internato foi enviado pela Coordenação de Internato de MGF da Zona Centro de Portugal. Foram realizadas estatísticas descritivas e inferenciais.  Resultados:  Numa amostra de conveniência, 62 (69,7%) de 89 participantes, pelo não cumprimento de critérios de inclusão, 12,9% experimentavam poucos, 22,6% moderados, 43,5% frequentes e 21% intensos sentimentos de impostor, com os níveis significativamente mais elevados na mulher (p=0,036). A correlação de Spearman entre PHQ-4 and CIPS foi muito fraca e não significativa (&#961;=0,085, p=0,511).  Discussão:  É necessário reconhecer e gerir o FI a nível individual e institucional. Mais estudos devem ser realizados sobre a prevalência de FI em médicos e sobre a sua gestão.  Conclusão:  FI com uma pontuação igual ou superior a moderada foi detetada em 87,1% dos internos. As mulheres são mais afetadas. Não se verificaram correlações entre o FI, distress, ano de internato e média.]]></p></abstract>
