Summary: Abstract: We experience and encounter stress in our daily lives and affects our performance in school and workplace, Physical Therapy Interns assess and treat different patients every day. Not only do they have clinical responsibilities, but academic responsibilities as well. The purpose of this study is to determine how the perceived stress affects the clinical performance of Physical Therapy interns in the selected tertiary care hospitals in Quezon City. This study may help current and future PT interns to excel by being knowledgeable about how the stresses may affect their clinical performance. Also, by this study, current and future interns may avoid or anticipate what the stressors are and may ready themselves prior to experiencing the stress. An analytic observational, cross-sectional and correlational study was used for this research. Perceived stress of the physical therapy interns was measured using PSS and their clinical performance using the CIET. A non-probability, convenience sampling was used to select the participants and ended up to have 33 participants. Perceived stress has a positive very low correlation with professional behavior as to safety (r=0.120, p=0.505) and communication skills (r=0.177, p=0.324) while it has a negative very low to low correlational to the initiative (r=0.130, p=0.470) and professional ethics (r=-0.264, p=0.138) though it is not statistically significant. Results likewise show that perceived stress has no relationship on the clinical performance in patient management of the physical therapy interns as to examination, evaluation and diagnosis/prognosis while there is a negative very low correlation with intervention (r=-0.105, p=0.560) though it is not statistically significant. In conclusion, there is no correlation between the stress and the clinical performance among Physical Therapy Interns at Selected Tertiary Care Hospitals in Quezon City.
