For the analysis of the data, the statistical methods of frequency, mean and standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis were employed. Physician assistants’ burnout was found to have positive correlations with role conflict and negative correlations with resilience. It was found that factors affecting the burnout of physician assistant were as follows: resilience, role conflict, marital status, motive of choosing PA and on call duty and the explanatory power was 40.1%. In order to decrease the level of burnout of physician assistants, various efforts are needed, including the development of a program designed to reduce role conflict and enhance resilience.
