Abstract
This study aims to assess the relationship between sociodemographic variable and the burnout syndrome in a multiocupational sample of the Hospital Psychiatric Prison ofSeville. The sample consisted of 136 workers of the Hospital Psychiatric Prison (93% of the total staff) that were gathered in three groups (security, services and treatment) their level of contact with the inmates was also taked into account. Results show that prison employees with high levels of contact with the inmates experience higher levels of depersonalization and were less satisfied with their personal accomplishment at work than the personnel with less contact. Significant differences were also found among the three groups (security, services and treatment). Depersonalization and low personal accomplishment were higher in the security officer’s group. On the other hand, lower levels of depersonalization were found between women and personnel with university studies. This study also shows that to have an only child is positively related to depersonalization and emotional exhaustion.
