Abstract

The author describes activist medical students in terms of their core values—humanitarianism, moral integrity, and the desire for meaningful communication—and their primary psychological tasks—achieving cultural continuity and integration of their personalities. He discusses the conflicts they experience with their school administrations and the methods used to resolve them, and concludes that the roles of activist and student-physician are compatible.
