This study aimed to assess the relationship between teaching and learning-related stressor (TLRS) and their anxiety levels during the COVID-19 pandemic.Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study.

Sampling was carried out using purposive sampling. The dependent variable was anxiety levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. The independent variable was teaching and learning-related stressor based on Medical Student Stressor Questionnaire (MSSQ) instrument. The data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed by Cox proportional regression.Results: A half of medical students experienced anxiety (50.4%), but the data shows a non-significant difference when controlled with other stressor variables (Adjusted PR= 1.485; 95% CI= 0.71 to 2.97; p= 0.300).Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between teaching and learning-related stressor and anxiety level among Medical Students during COVID-19 pandemic.Keywords: mental health, anxiety, stressor, COVID-19, medical studentsCorrespondence:Helda.
