Abstract

Are there emotional correlates of hubristic symptomatology in physicians working in state hospitals at intrapersonal and interpersonal levels? 188 physicians completed a series of questionnaires related to emotional aspects and a 5-point Likert scale examining hubris. Their patients responded to a satisfaction question. Results revealed that years of working experience and negative affect correlate negatively with hubris, while Others' Emotion Appraisal and Regulation of Emotion correlate positively. Patients seem not to report different levels of personal satisfaction from the provided healthcare services, based on the emotional characteristics and the hubris levels of their physician. Only work experience predicted hubris self-reported symptoms.
