Experience Of Burnout Research Articles

Experiencing Passion as an “essentia vitae” of Educational Biographies of Eminent Musicians From Cracow

RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The aim of the paper was to discuss a function of passion in professional personal lives of eminent Cracow musicians.
 THE RESEARCH PROBLEM AND METHODS: The paper raises the problem of the role of passion in the process of shaping musical eminence, answers the question of the scope of experiencing it as well as it manifesting in activities of outstanding individuals. In conducted research and interpretations, the qualitative perspective and biographical method were applied. The leading technique was problem-concentrated qualitative interview, partially structured, carried out with ten eminent instrumentalists.
 THE PROCESS OF ARGUMENTATION: The theoretical basis for this reading of the experience of educational biographies was provided by the Model of Authentic Vocation of J. Weller and the Dualistic Model of Passion of A. Bonneville-Roussy, G. Lavigne and R. Vallerand. The interpretations of the research material described the topography of experiencing passion.
 RESEARCH RESULTS: The article describes autonomous passion associated with musical mastery, instrumental motivation to practice, as well as distinguishes important factors that determine the experience of passion, persistence or burnout (tenacity, ambition, community transfer, conflict of motives, work overload), and concretizes the qualities of musical passion of outstanding musicians: professionalization, love of music, integrity, creativity, strength and determination in pursuit of goals, as well as humility in the face of challenges.
 CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Deciphering the senses and meanings that prominent Cracow musicians attributed to passion suggests that it was autonomous, harmonious and instrumental, motivated by the pursuit of mastery, and that the trajectories of the musicians’ professional biographies were a manifestation of a “professionalization of passion,” which formed the core of their educational experience and constituted and defined their life creed.

An Exploration of Student Nurses' Experiences of Burnout during the COVID-19 Pandemic Using the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI).

Burnout amongst healthcare professionals has been a long-considered condition associated with the workplace environment. Student nurses studying at Sheffield Hallam University continued to engage in their training during the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the stressors of this experience were anecdotally highlighted to their academic staff. Furthermore, burnout can be linked to the ongoing difficulties with recruitment and retention of nursing staff within the NHS workforce. This work aimed to determine the burnout among nursing students experience by obtaining quantitative data to understand their experiences. The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory was used to gauge levels of burnout across the different fields of nursing students. Results identified that: (1) mental health students reported feeling tired significantly less often than child and adult field students (mean rating of 69% versus 91.7% and 84.0%, respectively); (2) students aged 30-39 feel tired significantly less often than both younger student age groups (mean rating 59.4% versus 82.8% and 90.6%); (3) there was a significant difference in how often different age groups felt "tired of working with clients" (F(4) = 2.68, p = 0.04) and that "they couldn't take it anymore" (F(4) = 2.53, p = 0.05); (4) child-field students reported generally higher levels of global burnout (mean CBI total = 57.9%) whilst mental health students reported lower levels (mean CBI total = 54.1%). Considering these results, it is imperative for both higher education institutions and potential employers to consider the impact of COVID-19 and burnout, and the levels of support offered to student nurses during their training and transition to practice as newly qualified nurses.

Burnout is a collection of symptoms that arise due to the use of energy exceeding one's resources resulting in the appearance of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion. Context about burnout appears in public services such as nurses, social workers, service companies, the education sector, and others related to services that involve interpersonal relationships which cause the appearance of the three signs burnout. Experienced nurse burnout will tend to be cynical towards other people and patients, feel tired all day long, feel unable to do work and even start to be reluctant to work. In severe conditions there will be a desire to stop working. If the nurse experiences burnout , of course, will hinder performance and be inconsistent with the vision and mission of the hospital in improving the quality of nursing services. Burnout It has a huge impact on the human immune system. Excessive stress will have an impact on increasing hormones cortisol which can cause prolonged stress, even lead to depression.

Reducing diabetes burnout syndrome using self-instructional training

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) experienced diabetes burnout, which influences the patient’s daily living. Some treatments had been introduced to reduce this burnout, but self-instructional training method remained unknown for its effectiveness. This study was aimed to analyse the influence of self-instructional training toward diabetes burnout syndrome. This research was a quasy-experimental study involving patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. About 72 respondents were chosen using purposive sampling. This study divided the respondents into control and treatment groups. The treatment group gained self-instructional training in 4 meetings. Data was obtained from pre-test and post-test using diabetes burnout scale questionnaire and analysed with Paired T-test and Independent T-test. Study results showed that the treatment group had a significant decrease in diabetes burnout (severe to low level) (p=0.000). Diabetes burnout score among treatment group was lower compared to the control group (24.69±4.73; 19.19±4.24). In the control group, there was no significant statistical reduction about diabetes burnout (p=0.110). Besides, this study presented the difference diabetes burnout syndrome between treatment and control group (p=0.000; p<0.05). This study showed self-instructional training could minimize the occurrence of diabetes burnout syndrome among T2DM patients. This method has been proven to influence patient’s behaviour positively.

Australian dental practitioners experience of burnout.

The aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with burnout in Australian dental practitioners. A cross-sectional survey of 1483 Australian dental practitioners was conducted from Oct to Dec 2021. Participants reported burnout using the Sydney Burnout Measure, and aspects of mental health including psychological distress, depression, and anxiety disorders. Predictors of burnout were explored using a generalized linear model with a stepped approach including demographic, health and risk factor variables. One in four participants were classified as likely to be experiencing burnout. Burnout was associated with working in a regional/rural location (β = 2.82, p < 0.001), an academic/non-clinical role (β = 5.01, p = 0.037), more years of experience as a dental practitioner (β = 0.08, p = 0.022), a current diagnosis of depression (β = 2.38, p = 0.049), moderate/severe psychological distress (β = 7.16, p < 0.001), poor self-rated physical health (β = 5.84, p < 0.001) and increasing alcohol consumption (β = 0.17, p = 0.020). Participants who scored high on resilience (β = -0.23, p = 0.002) or perfectionism (β = -0.24, p < 0.001) had lower burnout scores. Australian dental practitioners appear to be at high risk of burnout which may impact on their health and wellbeing and ability to deliver patient care. There is a need for support services to manage burnout and education to address workplace and environmental factors that may contribute to burnout.

Long-term healthcare professionals' experiences of burnout and correlation between burnout and fatigue: a cross-sectional study.

The aim of the study was to analyze the long-term burnout levels of healthcare professionals (HCPs) working in Slovenian nursing homes during the fifth wave of the pandemic; to compare the results of similar facilities in 2020 and 2013; and to examine the correlation between demographics and burnout and fatigue among HCPs. The study used a descriptive, correlational cross-sectional method. In the fifth wave, HCPs suffered more from emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and lack of personal accomplishment than in the first wave of the pandemic and in the spring of 2013. The HCPs caring for COVID-19 patients and younger women had higher rates of burnout and fatigue than other occupational groups. There is a strong positive correlation between burnout and fatigue. There is an urgent need to address the problem of fatigue and burnout with administrative measures. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2023;36(3):396-405.

Fostering Security Providing Leadership: A Resource to Safeguard Against Employee Burnout

In work settings, different leadership styles significantly impact employee well-being, potentially leading to improved health or heightened stress levels. This research posits that leadership focused on providing security can serve as a crucial asset in mitigating employee job burnout. The study explores the correlation between employees' perceptions of their leaders' security-oriented leadership and their experience of job-related burnout. This research explores how security- providing leaders impact burnout, highlighting the mediating roles of organizational climate (psychological safety) and organizational dehumanization. The study surveyed 655 Spanish employees (53.7% women) through non- discriminative snowball sampling. Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), results confirm a negative link between security-providing leadership and burnout. The study also finds that this relationship is influenced by psychological safety climate and organizational dehumanization. These findings support attachment-based leadership, indicating ways to create better organizational environments. Leaders focusing on security enhance employee well-being by promoting psychological safety and reducing organizational dehumanization, thus mitigating job burnout. Key Words: leadership; attachment theory; security provider; organizational climate; organizational dehumanization, burnout.

Lifestyle Medicine Implementation in 8 Health Systems: Protocol for a Multiple Case Study Investigation.

Lifestyle medicine (LM) is the use of therapeutic lifestyle changes (including a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern; regular physical activity; restorative sleep; stress management; avoidance of risky substances; and positive social connection) to prevent and treat chronic illness. Despite growing evidence, LM is still not widely implemented in health care settings. Potential challenges to LM implementation include lack of clinician training, staffing concerns, and misalignment of LM services with fee-for-service reimbursement, but the full range of factors facilitating or obstructing its implementation and long-term success are not yet understood. To learn important lessons for success and failure, it is crucial to understand the experiences of different LM programs. This study aims to describe in depth the protocol used to identify barriers and facilitators impacting the implementation of LM in health systems. The study team comprises team members at the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM), including staff and researchers with expertise in public health, LM, and qualitative research. We recruited health systems that were members of the ACLM Health Systems Council. From among 15 self-nominating health systems, we selected 7 to represent a diversity of geographic location, type, size, expertise, funding, patients, and LM services. Partway through the study, we recruited 1 additional contrasting health system to serve as a negative case. For each case, we conducted in-depth interviews, document reviews, site visits (limited due to the COVID-19 pandemic), and study team debriefs. Interviews lasted 45-90 minutes and followed a semistructured interview guide, loosely based on the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) model. We are constructing detailed case narrative reports for each health system that are subsequently used in cross-case analyses to develop a contextually rich and detailed understanding of various predetermined and emergent topics. Cross-case analyses will draw on a variety of methodologies, including in-depth case familiarization, inductive or deductive coding, and thematic analysis, to identify cross-cutting themes. The study team has completed data collection for all 8 participating health systems, including 68 interviews and 1 site visit. We are currently drafting descriptive case narratives, which will be disseminated to participating health systems for member checking and shared broadly as applied vignettes. We are also conducting cross-case analyses to identify critical facilitators and barriers, explore clinician training strategies to facilitate LM implementation, and develop an explanatory model connecting practitioner adoption of LM and experiences of burnout. This protocol paper offers real-world insights into research methods and practices to identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of LM in health systems. Findings can advise LM implementation across various health system contexts. Methodological limitations and lessons learned can guide the execution of other studies with similar methodologies.

Academic Burnout Experiences of Students in Online Distance Learning: A Phenomenology of Fortitude

This study was conducted to determine the lived experiences of students who experienced academic burnout during online distance learning. Academic burnout is the most critical issue students face as it is linked to detrimental consequences on teenagers' mentality. The evidence was gathered and conducted last January 2022. Students from Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges Marbel, Incorporated who experienced academic burnout during online distance learning the previous academic year 2020-2021 were the participants—using Phenomenology, which aims to grasp participants' experiences via qualitative research. The study uncovered the underlying cause of their burnout during online distance learning. Nervousness and pressure from the heavy tasks to be completed impacted their education by increasing the prevalence of psychological and physical issues such as depression, anxiety, fear, and stress-related ailments. The study revealed the participants' underlying coping mechanisms throughout online distance learning; despite the hurdles, the participants exhibited their creativity via online distance learning. Finally, based on findings of the study, it is recommended for the school to create a plan to sustain the best approaches used by teachers to avoid problems causing burnout about several desirable and necessary skills. This is for the students to address their anxiety as it will become adequate student support for their students to tailor the burnout and possibly reduce it.

Burnout and technostress during the COVID-19 pandemic: the perception of higher education teachers and researchers

The COVID-19 pandemic had significant impacts on working conditions of teachers and researchers, jeopardizing their mental health and increasing the risk of burnout and technostress. The purpose of this study was to assess the experiences of burnout and technostress among higher education teachers and researchers during the pandemic. A total of 333 participants responded to an assessment protocol which included the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) and the Computer-Induced Distress scale (CID). The protocol was disclosed via email during a 2-month period and data was collected using Microsoft Forms. The results verified the prevalence of burnout and technostress, confirmed the existence of significant differences between sociodemographic groups and found correlations between the BAT and the CID. The findings indicate moderate levels of burnout and technostress, suggest several influence factors to their development, and show a relationship between burnout and technostress. Implications of this study are discussed, reenforcing education, training, decent work, and wellbeing as the main challenges for human being to support a sustainable development. As there are few studies in this area, there is a need to pay more attention to mental health issues and needs among teachers and researchers, such the ones related to burnout and technostress, to promote their well-being, as well as to education for sustainable development.

Exhausting and difficult or easy: the association between psychological flexibility and study related burnout and experiences of studying during the pandemic

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic caused a decline in students’ well-being, but on the other hand, students’ experiences of online learning and studying vary widely. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between psychological flexibility and study-related burnout and to explore whether students with different levels of psychological flexibility have experienced burnout and online studying during COVID-19 differently.MethodsThe data was collected from first-year life-science students (N = 296) in spring 2021. The relationship between psychological flexibility and study-related burnout was explored with Pearson’s correlation and linear regression. Students’ open-ended responses about their experiences of online learning were analyzed with inductive content analysis and the categories were quantified. Three different groups (high, middle, and low) were made based on respondents’ psychological flexibility, and the differences in their study-related burnout were analysed with ANOVA and Tukey’s test, and differences in online learning experiences were analysed with a Chi-square test.ResultsThe results showed that there was a negative relationship between psychological flexibility and study-related burnout. In addition, experiences of study-related burnout and online studying differed statistically significantly between the different groups.DiscussionThe results show that psychological flexibility is an important factor in enhancing students’ well-being and learning during the pandemic.

Relationships Between Burnout, Secondary Traumatic Stress, Mindfulness, and Self-Compassion in Victim Advocates.

Victim advocates experience burnout and secondary traumatic stress (STS) in response to their exposure to trauma at work. Mindful awareness may serve as a protective factor against these negative outcomes. The current study examined a sample of 133 victim advocates from across the country to better understand and predict STS and burnout. Higher mindful awareness was found to be associated with lower STS and burnout, even when controlling for other best-known predictors. Self-compassion partially mediated these relationships. These findings support further research exploring the effects of mindful awareness training for victim advocates to reduce STS and burnout.

Veterinarian burnout demographics and organizational impacts: a narrative review.

Burnout is a work-related syndrome of physical and emotional exhaustion secondary to prolonged, unresolvable occupational stress. Individuals of different demographic cohorts may have disparate experiences of workplace stressors and burnout impacts. Healthcare organizations are adversely affected by burnt out workers through decreased productivity, low morale, suboptimal teamwork, and potential impacts on the quality of patient care. In this second of two companion reviews, the demographics of veterinary burnout and the impacts of burnout on affected individuals and work environments are summarized, before discussing mitigation concepts and their extrapolation for targeted strategies within the veterinary workplace and profession.

Interventional Pain Physician Burnout During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Survey from the American Society of Pain and Neuroscience.

The study sought to assess the prevalence of physician burnout among interventional pain physicians in 2022. Physician burnout is major psychosocial and occupational health issue. Prior to the coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, over 60% of physicians reported emotional exhaustion and burnout. Physician burnout was reported to become more prevalent in multiple medical specialties during the COVID-19 pandemic. An 18-question survey was distributed electronically to all ASPN members (n = 7809) in the summer of 2022 to assess demographics, burnout characteristics (e.g., Have you felt burned out due to COVID?), and strategies to cope with burnout and stress (e.g., reached out for mental health assistance). Members were able to complete the survey once and were unable to make changes to their responses once submitted. Descriptive statistics were used to assess the prevalence and severity of physician burnout within the ASPN community. Chi-square tests were used to examine differences in burnout by provider characteristics (age, gender, years practicing, and practice type) with p-values less than 0.05 indicating statistical significance. There were 7809 ASPN members that received the survey email, 164 of those members completed the survey, a response rate of 2.1%. The majority of respondents were male (74.1%, n = 120), 94% were attending physicians (n = 152), and 26% (n = 43) have been in practice for twenty years or longer. Most respondents expressed having experienced burnout during the COVID pandemic (73.5%, n = 119), 21.6% of the sample reported reduced hours and responsibilities during the pandemic, and 6.2% of surveyed physicians quit or retired due to burnout. Nearly half of responders reported negative impacts to their family and social lives as well as personal physical and mental health. A variety of negative (e.g., changes in diet, smoking/vaping) and positive coping strategies (e.g., exercise and training, spiritual enrichment) were employed in response to stress and burnout; 33.5% felt they should or had reached out for mental health assistance and suicidal ideations were expressed in 6.2% due to burnout. A high percentage of interventional pain physicians continue to experience mental symptoms that may lead to risk for significant issues going forward. Our findings should be interpreted with caution based on the low response rate. Evaluation of burnout should be incorporated into annual assessments given issues of survey fatigue and low survey response rates. Interventions and strategies to address burnout are warranted.

What makes you proactive can burn you out: The downside of proactive skill building motivated by financial precarity and fear.

Proactivity at work is generally assumed to be preceded by positive motivational states with positive outcomes for employees. However, recent perspectives suggest downsides to proactive behavior, including that it can be driven by negative emotions or experienced as depleting for employees. Bringing these previously disconnected ideas together, we utilize cognitive-motivational-relational and self-determination theories to holistically examine the negative antecedents of proactivity and its outcomes. We argue that employees, particularly those with high impression management motives, experience burnout when financial precarity and fear drive them to proactively learn new skills. We test and show support for these hypotheses in a four-wave study of 1,315 university employees during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, an external event that threatened employees' financial security. Theoretically, our findings broaden our understanding of the antecedents and consequences of proactivity, while expanding the role of fear at work beyond "flight" responses to include motivating protective effort. Practically, our findings help to understand both how employees proactively develop their skills in light of financial precarity and how these proactive efforts are experienced as depleting.

Socioeconomic factors, perceived stress, and social support effect on neonatal nurse burnout in China: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundNeonatal nurses’ working environments are highly stressful, and burnout is common. This study examines the effect of socioeconomic factors, perceived stress, and social support on neonatal nurse burnout.MethodsA total of 311 neonatal nurses participated in this study. They were administered a validated Maslach Burnout Inventory. The study employed a 14-item perceived stress scale (PSS-14) and a social support rate scale (SSRS) to examine stress, socioeconomic factors, and lifestyles.ResultsOf the neonatal nurses, 40.19% had burnout, 89.60% had mild burnout, and 10.40% had moderate burnout; no neonatal nurse experienced severe burnout. Young nurses and those with low technical skills, poor interpersonal relationships, irregular diet, and insufficient rest were exposed to burnout (all p < 0.05).Most burnout nurses experienced moderate-severe perceived stress, and their PSS-14 scores were higher (all p < 0.05).The scores for objective social support, subjective social support, utilization of social support, total SSRS scores, and the level of social support were all lower in burnout nurses (all p < 0.05). Perceived stress was correlated positively and significantly with emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment (all p < 0.05). Social support correlated significantly with and reduced personal accomplishments (p < 0.05). Age, poor interpersonal relationships, perceived stress, and social support were all independent factors associated with neonatal nurse burnout (all p < 0.05).ConclusionThe prevalence of burnout in neonatal nurses was higher than average. Socioeconomic factors, higher perceived stress, and lower social support contribute to neonatal nurse burnout. Nursing managers should pay attention to socioeconomic factors, perceived stress, and social support among neonatal nurses and employ strategies to reduce neonatal nurse burnout.

Keepers of Trauma: Rape Victim Advocates' Secondary Traumatic Stress, Burnout, and Coping Techniques.

This qualitative research explores rape victim advocates' secondary traumatic stress (STS), burnout, and coping strategies. Data reveal that the hardest parts of advocates' work include feeling like they cannot help survivors, hearing survivors' stories, and seeing the failings of the CJ and legal systems. Most advocates (81%) experience STS, evident in emotional and behavioral responses. Most advocates (71%) confirm that #MeToo and coverage of sexual violence in the news, social media, or television contribute to their STS. Fewer advocates (34%) experience burnout, which is attributed to workload. Advocates cope by reaching out to others (colleagues, friends, and family) and exercising.
