Abstract
Background: Social support through the partner can have an impact on work related stress perception of physicians. So far, there is no empirical data on the association of gratification crisis and social support through the partner in physician's profession. Objectives: This study evaluates the effects of social support, in terms of distribution of house work and amount of working time within a partnership, on burnout and gratification crisis of residents. Material and Methods: Data acquisition was carried out within the multi-centric and prospective "KarMed" study in Germany at the end of the postgraduate training in 2016 (N = 433). The ERI and MBI scales were used. Results: Results yielded significant effects of distribution of house work and the amount of working time on gratification crisis and burnout. Conclusions: The satisfaction with the distribution of house work as well as working time in a partnership plays an important role for the wellbeing of residents. In terms of decreasing numbers of outpatient practices, the results of the present study underlie the relevance of work-life balance.
