    Background: The prevalence of gastrointestinal symptom in the world (5-11%), Western (10-40%), and Asian countries (5%-30%) is almost half of the entire population. Medical students are a vulnerable group of the general public who have prolonged study hours, reduced hours of sleep and free activities, as well as the many exams that must be passed to be able to graduate. Medical students have higher stress level than other students. This study aims to quantitative validity and reliability test of the Indonesian version-GSRS questionnaire and assess sleep quality, stress level, and diet with gastrointestinal symptom among medical students.
   Methods: The research study design is a cross-sectional study and simple random sampling. Other questionnaires used in this research are PSQI to assess sleep quality, MSSQ to assess stress level, and FFQ to assess diet. The data analysed using Kendall's tau_b bivariate correlation test at SPSS version 24 software.
   Results: The result from 136 respondents, quantitative validation with item validity method and reliability tests is valid (P<0.05) and reliable (α=0.900) for the Indonesian version-GSRS questionnaire. The majority of respondents had mild severity of gastrointestinal symptom (N=111; 81.6%), bad sleep quality (N=116; 85.3%), moderate stress level (N=56; 41.2%), and excessive dietary pattern (N=65; 47.8%).
   Conclusion: The Indonesian version-GSRS questionnaire can be used as an initial measurement tool for symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders in the Indonesian community. There is a relationship between gastrointestinal symptoms and sleep quality, stress level, and diet in medical students.
