Abstract

A medical student is hoped to be a leader for himself and to another health professional in the future. Integrity will boost the quality of honesty and strong moral values among leaders. This study aimed to examine the correlation between personal integrity and leadership among medical students. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Al-Azhar Islamic University, Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. A total of 241 were selected to participate in this study. The dependent variable was leadership and the independent variable was personal integrity. The data were obtained from the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) test. The data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. Among 241 medical students at Al-Azhar Islamic University, Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara, 182 (75.52%) students had good leadership and 195 (80.91%) had good integrity. After the data from MMPI-2 were analyzed using Chi-square, it was found that leadership significantly correlated with integrity (p=0.010). Leadership is correlated with integrity among medical students at Al-Azhar Islamic University. Medical students should improve their leadership so it can contribute positively to the person, faculty, and wider community.
