Leadership, stress and burnout among basketball referees

The study analyses leadership styles and their influence on burnout and stress among basketball referees, applying a non-probabilistic sampling, convenience sampling, to 61 referees, 85.2% men, 14.8% women. Descriptive analysis, correlations and hierarchical multiple regression models were performed. By applying the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire MLQ-5, Inventario de Burnout en deportistas Revisado IBD-R [Revised Athlete Burnout Inventory], and Escala de Estres en el Ambito Deportivo EEAD [Stress Scale for Sports]. Moderate stress level (26-50) as well as burnout (50-60). Transformational leadership is associated with low levels of stress (p=.003) and high levels of personal accomplishment (p= .026). The developer style, inverse and significant effect (p= .013) with stress. Corrective leadership is associated with low levels of stress (p=.005) and high personal accomplishment (p= .019) and emotional exhaustion (p= .006) of burnout. Passive leadership is associated with high levels of stress (p= .013) and low levels of personal accomplishment (p = .023). As a conclusion, referees mainly apply transformational leadership associated with low levels of stress and high levels of personal accomplishment. They have moderate level of stress and burnout, while there are differences between those at the national level and those at the local-regional level, in addition there are differences regarding the role played, in relation to stress.

Burnout, Perceived Stress, Sleep Quality, and Smartphone Use: A Survey of Osteopathic Medical Students.

Burnout is a psychological syndrome that results from prolonged exposure to stressful work activities and includes 3 dimensions: emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and low sense of personal accomplishment (PA). Burnout is a widespread problem in numerous professions but is particularly high among medical students, residents, and early-career physicians compared with college graduates of similar age. However, minimal research has addressed burnout in osteopathic medical students. To assess levels of burnout in osteopathic medical students and to examine the relationship among burnout, perceived stress, sleep quality, and smartphone use. This study used a cross-sectional study design and an anonymous, electronic questionnaire service to administer the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Perceived Stress Scale-4, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality index, and the Smartphone Addiction Scale Short Version. A total of 385 participants (mean [SD] age, 25 [2.4] years; 208 [54.0%] women; 286 [74.3%] white; 138 [35.8%] second-year osteopathic medical students [OMSs]) completed the survey. Of the 385 participants, 9 (2.3%) reported high EE, 67 (17.4) reported high DP, and 310 (80.5) reported a high level of low PA. When comparing dimensions of burnout by gender, only levels of PA differed by gender, with men reporting higher levels of burnout compared with women (χ12=5.2, P=.022). Further, levels of DP differed by year in medical school (χ 2=17.3, P=.008), with post-hoc comparisons showing differences between OMS I and OMS III (F=4.530, df=3, P=.004). Linear regression models showed that higher perceived stress (standardized β=0.5, P<.001), poorer sleep quality (standardized β=0.2, P=.001), and higher smartphone addiction scores (standardized β=0.1, P<.001) were associated with higher EE. Similarly, higher perceived stress (standardized β=0.2, P<.001), poorer sleep quality (standardized β=0.2, P=.001), and higher smartphone addiction scores (standardized β=0.2, P=.001) were associated with higher DP. Only higher perceived stress was associated with higher levels of low PA (standardized β=-0.4, P<.001). These findings suggest independent associations with EE, DP, perceived stress, sleep quality, and smartphone use. Additional research with a larger, more diverse sample is needed to confirm these findings. If confirmed, wellness interventions can be designed to target 2 modifiable factors: sleep quality and smartphone use.

Burnout Among Correctional Staff: Effects of Job Satisfaction

The article is devoted to the effects of job satisfaction of penitentiaries on their burnout in a developing country. Postmodern as an age of freedom and expansion of individualism contrasts with the role of penitentiaries, obliged to restrict the freedom of other people, and also exacerbates the dual nature of penitentiaries, responsible for both supervision and correction of convicts. The authors used JSS to measure job satisfaction with workers in correctional facilities of Ukraine (n = 78) and MBI-HSS to identify their level of professional burnout. The authors used descriptive statistics methods, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the Shapiro–Wilk test. the correlation analysis with the Pearson correlation coefficient, Spearman’s rank order correlation coefficient and Fisher's criterion. A high level of correctional staff burnout was revealed in comparison with other developed and developing countries. Vocational burnout (emotional exhaustion and depersonalization) is likely to be affected by dissatisfaction with contingent rewards, communication field, and operating conditions. At least a statistically significant relationship between these phenomena has been identified. At the same time, only a weak relationship between the total job satisfaction and the aggregated global measure of burnout was revealed. Along with a high level of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, officers have maintained a high level of personal accomplishment, which requires additional research and application of another methods.

Predictors of stigma in a sample of mental health professionals: Network and moderator analysis on gender, years of experience, personality traits, and levels of burnout.

Stigma is one of the most important barriers to help-seeking and to personal recovery for people suffering from mental disorders. Stigmatizing attitudes are present among mental health professionals with negative effects on the quality of health care. Network and moderator analysis were used to identify what path determines stigma, considering demographic and professional variables, personality traits, and burnout dimensions in a sample of mental health professionals (n=318) from six Community Mental Health Services. The survey included the Attribution Questionnaire-9, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the Ten-Item Personality Inventory. The personality trait of openness to new experiences resulted to determine lower levels of stigma. Burnout (personal accomplishment) interacted with emotional stability in predicting stigma, and specifically, for subjects with lower emotional stability lower levels of personal accomplishment were associated with higher levels of stigma. Some personality traits may be accompanied by better empathic and communication skills, and may have a protective role against stigma. Moreover, burnout can increase stigma, in particular in subjects with specific personality traits. Assessing personality and burnout levels could help in identifying mental health professionals at higher risk of developing stigma. Future studies should determine whether targeted interventions in mental health professionals at risk of developing stigma may be effective in stigma prevention.

A Study of Burnout Amongst Doctors at the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia

Background: Stress among health care workers is a subject that has received much attention worldwide. However, there have been few studies that address the issue of work-related stress among health care workers in Africa and in Zambia in particular. There was an urgent need to study burnout at the University Teaching Hospital in order to have concrete evidence for planning and policy purposes in order to help address some of the human resource for health problems in Zambia. This study sought to measure the levels of work-related burnout among doctors at the University Teaching Hospital and to investigate associated factors.&#x0D; Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. Data was collected by means of a self-administered survey using Maslach Burnout Inventory provided by mindgarden.com. Data analysis was done using guidelines as set out in the Maslach Burnout Inventory manual using Epi-info software. Cross tabulations and chi-square and statistical analysis tests were done in order to establish whether there were any statistically significant associations between levels of burnout and other variables such as sex, age, seniority, department and marital status, among others.&#x0D; Results: More than half, 54.4.%, of doctors studied at the University Teaching Hospital experienced average or high levels of emotional exhaustion with 44.8% experiencing average or high levels of depersonalisation and 66.4% experiencing average or low levels of personal accomplishment. Personal accomplishment was the subscale with the highest indication of burnout, followed by emotional exhaustion and depersonalisation. There were no significant associations between demographic and individual work factors studied and burnout levels.&#x0D; Conclusions: Burnout levels are significant at the University Teaching Hospital. There were no significant associations between demographic and individual work factors studied and burnout levels. This study has highlighted that burnout is a problem that needs to be addressed at the hospital and further investigation is required to assess what factors maybe contributing to it, particularly those related to the work environment, since personal and demographiccharacteristics did not show any associations to burnout.

The role of teacher-student relationships in predicting teachers’ personal accomplishment and emotional exhaustion

Teaching is a uniquely stressful profession. Though previous work has drawn attention to the high levels of burnout teachers report experiencing and its impact on students, comparatively less work has investigated what influences teachers' burnout itself. Guided by Lazarus' (1991) transactional model of stress and coping, the present study explored the links between the proximal resource of teachers' relationships with students and burnout. Specifically, we investigated the association between classroom aggregated teacher reports of relational closeness and conflict, and two components of burnout: personal accomplishment and emotional exhaustion. Results indicated that teachers who reported close relationships with their students also reported higher levels of personal accomplishment over the academic year, whereas more conflictual relationships were associated with increased emotional exhaustion. Implications for relational quality with students as a central influence on teachers’ wellbeing are discussed.

The Presence of Stress, Burnout Syndrome and the Most Important Causes of Working Stress Among Physicians in Primary Health Care - an Observational Study from Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

To investigate the level and causes of stress and the risk of onset of burnout syndrome among physicians employed at the Primary Health Care Centre, Banja Luka. Between March 1, 2018, and May 31, 2018 all physicians from the Primary Health Care Centre, Banja Luka were offered the following questionnaires to fill in: a socio-demographic questionnaire, a questionnaire for self-assessment of the level of stress and the Maslach Burnout Inventory for assessment of the risk of burnout syndrome. Out of 211 physicians, 85.8% were female. A high level of stress was found in 77.7% of the subjects. Older doctors had higher levels of emotional exhaustion compared to younger doctors with a shorter length of service (r=0.236, P=0.01). Emotional exhaustion was significantly correlated with a high level of depersonalization, a low level of personal accomplishment and a high level of stress (r=0.380, r=-0.174 and r=0.574, P=0.01, P=0.04 and P<0.01, respectively). Depersonalization correlated with a low level of personal accomplishment and stress (r=-0.347 and r=0.283, P<0.01 and P=0.01, respectively), while the level of personal accomplishment was in a negative correlation with stress (r=-0.281, P=0.01). A high stress level was associated with a high degree of emotional exhaustion (OR 56.543; 95% CI 11.35-213.09; P<0.001) as well as lack of personal accomplishment (OR 0.155; 95% CI 0.04-0.50; P=0.003). A high level of stress was associated with older age, female gender, as well as with a high degree of emotional exhaustion and a lack of personal accomplishment. Preventive measures are warranted.

Objetivos: Identificar la prevalencia y los factores asociados con el Síndrome de Burnout (SBO) en médicos asistentes del Hospital Nacional Hipólito Unanue de Lima-Perú, en el año 2018. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional, transversal y analítico. La población inicial estuvo constituída por 252 médicos. Se seleccionó una muestra con la técnica del muestreo aleatorio estratificado. Se registraron diferentes variables sociodemográficas y laborales por medio de una encuesta anónima. Para el diagnóstico de SBO se empleó el Maslach Burnout Inventory. Se determinaron las variables asociadas con el SBO mediante un modelo de regresión logística. Se consideró un valor de p &lt; 0,05 como significativo. Resultados: De 150 médicos encuestados, 23 (15,3%) mostraron resultados compatibles con SBO. Sesenticinco (43,3%) de los encuestados tuvieron un nivel alto de cansancio emocional, 69 (46%) un nivel alto de despersonalización y 61 (41,7%) un nivel bajo de realización personal (p &lt; 0,05). Las variables asociadas con el SBO fueron sexo masculino (OR = 6,12; IC95 %, 1,43 – 26,13, p = 0,01) como factor de riesgo y tener un trabajo adicional (OR = 0,15; IC95 %: 0,04 – 0,49, p = 0,002), mostró ser un posible factor de proteccción. Conclusiones: Se encontró una baja prevalencia de SBO entre médicos asistentes, aunque un subgrupo significativo mostró altos niveles de cansancio emocional y despersonalización con bajos niveles de realización personal. El sexo masculino se asoció al SBO, en tanto que tener un trabajo adicional, a un efecto protector.

Work Related Burnout among Psychiatrists: A Comparative Study

Introduction: Psychiatry has been consistently shown to be a profession characterized by ‘high-burnout’ due toeither workplace stressors or specific patient’s nature and condition, together with personal stresses. The waysof coping strategies to face work-related stressors usually determines the development and even the levels ofburnout which is known to be higher among those who adopt maladaptive coping compared to those who adoptadaptive coping strategies. Aim of work: To compare the burnout among psychiatrists verses non psychiatrists.Materials and methods: This comparative cross sectional study included psychiatrists, working in MansouraUniversity Hospital and Demirah Psychiatry Hospital during the period from September to November, 2017. Agroup of physicians were taken from the department of Rheumatology and Dermatology , Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University as a comparative group ; fulfilling the eligibility criteria. Data was collected usinga specially designed questionnaire covering sociodemographic data, educational and occupational historiesand history of exposure to workplace stresses as physical violence. Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI)questionnaire and The Ways of Coping Scale questionnaire were also performed. Results: The psychiatristsshowed statistically significant higher prevalence of moderate and high level of both emotional exhaustion anddepersonalization than non psychiatrists (83.6% vs 52.1% and 100.0% vs. 81.7%; respectively). Psychiatristsshowed statistically significant high coping scores than non psychiatrists regarding: seeking social support,planful problem-solving and positive reappraisal. Night shift is statistically higher among psychiatrists than thenon psychiatrists (50.7% vs. 25.4%; respectively). Conclusion: The prevalence of moderate and high level ofemotional exhaustion and depolarization is higher among psychiatrists than non psychiatrists and is associatedwith a significantly higher prevalence of high level of personal achievement among non psychiatrists .Thecommonest way of coping among psychiatrists is active coping.

16. STRESS, BURNOUT, AND HELP-SEEKING BEHAVIOR AMONG PEDIATRIC FELLOWS

Burnout is highly prevalent among graduate medical trainees and is often associated with serious personal and professional consequences. While burnout among medical students and residents has been studied, few studies have examined burnout among fellowship trainees. We measured rates of stress and burnout among fellows in our freestanding children's hospital and evaluated fellows’ perceptions of stigma around, and willingness to seek treatment for, mental illness. Objectives 1)To measure burnout among pediatric fellowship trainees using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) 2)To assess fellows’ perceptions of stigma around help-seeking for mental illness 3)To examine the relationship between burnout and willingness to seek help for emotional distress Methods We distributed a 48-item inventory to all 288 fellows in our pediatric center. Survey items included the MBI in addition to questions measuring professional fulfillment and attitudes toward mental health treatment. Stress, burnout, and professional fulfillment were measured with descriptive statistics. Pearson correlations were used to associate burnout variables with willingness to seek mental health treatment. Results 152 fellows (52%) responded to the inventory in its entirety. Fellows reported high levels of stress (7 on a 10-point scale). On the MBI, they reported moderate levels of exhaustion, low levels of cynicism, and high levels of personal accomplishment. They did not perceive stigma around seeking mental health treatment, and most noted that they would “probably go” to a mental health professional if needed. However, high scores in the domains of exhaustion and cynicism were associated with lower likelihood of help-seeking, while high scores in the domain of personal accomplishment were associated with a higher likelihood of help-seeking. Conclusion High levels of stress alone are not directly correlated to high rates of burnout among fellowship trainees in our center. Our findings also indicate that fellows who score highly in the negative domains of the MBI are less likely to seek help for their distress, making them a particularly at-risk population.

Burnout in relation to Gender, Teaching Experience, and Educational Level among Educators

This study aims to investigate the burnout levels of the educators with respect to gender, teaching experience, and educational level. The subjects of the study are 31 educators. A survey design using a questionnaire was utilized to collect data within three burnout dimensions, i.e., emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and reduced personal accomplishment (PA). The study has found that the educators are emotionally exhausted and experience reduced personal accomplishment levels with high levels of depersonalization. Both genders regardless of years of experience with Bachelor, Master, and PhD degrees demonstrated high levels of emotional exhaustion. The educators who are troubled by depersonalization are mainly Bachelor degree holders with less than 5 years of experience. This indicates that these educators have negative attitudes towards the people they are working with including students and parents. This may be attributed to their lack of working experience. Nevertheless, female educators with Master degrees and 6 to 10 years of experience are highly affected by reduced personal accomplishment levels. The lack of fulfillment felt by these educators can lead to weak performance in class. The findings from this study are essential to give an overview on the burnout levels among educators and identify alternative solutions to overcome this situation. In addition, school authorities and administrators can take these factors into account when making recruitment decisions.

An exploratory study of the link between Machiavellianism and burnout

This study investigated the link between Machiavellianism and burnout. A total of 1073 schoolteachers (83% female) completed an online survey. Machiavellianism was assessed with the MACH IV and burnout with the Maslach Burnout Inventory. General health status, job satisfaction, and life satisfaction were additionally evaluated using single-item measures. Machiavellianism correlated positively with burnout and its components (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished personal accomplishment), and negatively with general health status, job satisfaction, and life satisfaction. The burnout-Machiavellianism association appeared to be primarily driven by the depersonalization component of burnout. In women, the relationship between Machiavellianism and depersonalization was better accounted for by a quadratic model, following a U-shaped curve. In men, a quadratic model did not outperform a linear model. Compared to low-Machiavellianism women, high-Machiavellianism women exhibited higher levels of burnout and depersonalization and lower levels of personal accomplishment, job satisfaction, and life satisfaction. High-Machiavellianism men exhibited higher levels of burnout and depersonalization than low-Machiavellianism men. Overall, no substantial association was found between Machiavellianism and emotional exhaustion―the core symptom of burnout. Our findings suggest that Machiavellianism is linked to burnout in a component-specific, sex-dependent, and partly nonlinear fashion. The practical importance of the burnout-Machiavellianism association requires clarification.

Coping, Mindfulness, Stress, and Burnout among Forensic Health Care Professionals

ABSTRACTAlthough working within forensic services can often prove emotionally challenging and stressful, there has been a surprising lack of research into potential interventions aimed at addressing stress and burnout experienced by forensic health care professionals (FHCPs). This study investigated the role of coping and dispositional mindfulness on stress and burnout among FHCPs employed within secure hospitals. One hundred and fifty-one FHCPs were recruited from five different low and medium secure hospitals (secure psychiatric units) in Wales. A postal research pack was used to collect background information and measures of coping, dispositional mindfulness, stress, and burnout. The study found that FHCPs reported elevated levels of stress and moderate levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization but retained a positive sense of personal accomplishment. Higher mindfulness skills were found to be significantly associated with lower levels of maladaptive coping, stress, and burnout. Higher levels of maladaptive coping significantly predicted elevated levels of stress and emotional exhaustion and lower levels of personal accomplishment. In relation to mindfulness, higher levels of acting with awareness significantly predicted lower levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization. The results appeared to support the commonly held assertion that forensic services can be stressful and emotionally challenging working environments, which can cause FHCPs to experience elevated levels of burnout and stress. Higher levels of dispositional mindfulness were significantly associated with lower maladaptive coping, stress, and burnout levels, therefore mindfulness based interventions could prove to be viable strategies to help support FHCPs. The results also suggested that higher levels of acting with awareness may help prevent FHCPs from experiencing emotional exhaustion and depersonalization.

The Evaluation of Burnout Syndrome among health professionals in Casablanca, Rabat and Kenitra

Objective: Today, workplace stress is a real scourge that has serious individual, organizational, social and economic consequences. The study aims to determine the prevalence of the three dimensions of burnout among health professionals in three cities in Morocco. Methods: This is a cross-sectional survey carried out mainly in three cities: Casablanca, Rabat and Kenitra. Among the 100 survey sheets, 83 respondents, including 16 general practitioners (19%), 29 specialist doctors (35%), 18 pharmacists (22%) and 20 nurses (24%). In our study, we used and the French version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory, which includes three scales: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Results: The indices calculated by Cronbach's alpha are very important for emotional exhaustion (a = 0.83), depersonalization (a = 0.67) and personal fulfilment (a =0.74). The results of the Maslach Burn out Inventory show that 33 (40%) of healers with a very high average score of 25.39 of emotional exhaustion. A level of depersonalization was found in 28 (34%) of the respondents, with a high average score of 8.65, while 5 (6%) healers with a low level of personal achievement. According to the variance analysis, there was a strong relationship between gender and the average personal achievement score (p=0.00), with a slightly high score among women at the level of emotional exhaustion. In regard to labour conflict and credit, there was a significant link with the three dimensions of MBI (p=0.00). Conclusion: Burnout is a real problem that affects the health professionals. Our study confirms this pathology by the prevalence of the three dimensions of Maslach. Our results call for the interest of a prevention program at different levels.

Impact of Nurses’ Burnout Upon Quality of Oncology Nursing Care in Pediatric Teaching Hospital in Baghdad City

This study aims to (1) Assess the level of nurses’ burnout in oncology wards. (2) Identify the relationship between nurses’ age, years of experience in nursing, years of experience in the oncology ward, the nurse's burnout and quality of oncology nursing care. (3) Find out the differences in nurses’ exposure to burnout and quality of oncology care between the groups of age, gender, and educational qualification. For the assess of burnout Syndrome and quality of oncology nursing care we used the questionnaire: (1) Maslach burnout Inventory (MbI) and (2) quality of oncology nursing care scale (QONCS). Respondents consisted of Nurses n=46, who working in oncology ward in pediatric teaching hospital in baghdad City. In our study, out of n=46 Nurses working at the wards of Oncology, most of study participants experience high level of emotional exhaustion (n = 32; 71.1%), Most of study participants experience low level of depersonalization (n = 29; 64.4%) and more than a half of study participants experience low level of personal accomplishment (n = 23; 51.1%). There are statistically significant associations between nurses’ age, nurse-to-bed ratio, socioeconomic status and the quality of oncology care.

Potential correlates of burnout among general practitioners and residents in Hungary: the significant role of gender, age, dependant care and experience

BackgroundBurnout is increasingly prevalent among general practitioners (GPs) in Hungary, which may lead to functional impairment and, subsequently, to poor quality of patient care. However, little is known about potential predictors of burnout among GPs. The aim of this study was to explore psychosocial correlates of burnout among GPs and residents in Hungary.MethodsWe collected socio-demographic and work-related data with self-administered questionnaires in a cross-sectional study among GPs (N = 196) and residents (N = 154). We assessed burnout with the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) and calculated the mean level of burnout and the proportion of physicians suffering from low, intermediate and high degree of burnout. To identify potential socio-demographic and work-related correlates of burnout among physicians, we determined Spearman’s and Mann-Whitney U correlation coefficients and conducted stepwise linear regression analyses. We deployed Mann-Whitney U test to explore gender disparity in the level of burnout between female and male physicians and between general practitioners and residents.ResultsThe prevalence of moderate to high level emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation, and impaired personal accomplishment was 34.7, 33.5 and 67.8% as well as 41.0, 43.1, and 71.1% among GPs and residents, respectively. Residents reported significantly lower level of personal accomplishment vs GPs. We identified a significantly higher level of depersonalization among male physicians compared to female physicians. Age correlated negatively with emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and positively with personal accomplishment among GPs. Dependant care was positively associated with burnout among female GPs. Female residents were more likely to report depersonalization. High workload was positively correlated with depersonalization among female GPs. Younger age emerged as the strongest predictor of emotional exhaustion. Male gender and fewer years of experience predicted depersonalization best, and male gender showed a significant predictive relationship with low personal accomplishment.ConclusionWe identified specific socio-demographic and work-related correlates of burnout, which may guide the development of specific and effective organizational decisions to attenuate occupational stress and subsequent burnout as well as functional impairment among GPs, and thus, may improve the quality of patient care.

Burnout syndrome in secondary school teachers: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Secondary school teachers are one of the occupational groups presenting the highest levels of sick leave due to stress in the workplace. This form of stress can cause burnout syndrome, which is characterised by emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation and low levels of personal accomplishment. Secondary education teachers have received relatively little research attention in this respect. This study addresses the prevalence among secondary school teachers of burnout syndrome, in its three dimensions, and investigates possible differences in the prevalence determined by different measuring instruments. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted of the scientific literature in this field. Using the Proquest and Eric electronic databases, 45 articles and 49 independent samples (N = 14,410) were obtained. Results show that secondary school teachers are at high risk of burnout syndrome. Moreover, there are statistically significant differences between the different measuring instruments used. Pedagogical programmes should be developed to reduce/prevent its impact.

Quality of work life and Job Burnout among Social Workers in Educational Institutions Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between quality of school work life (QSWL) and job burnout of social workers in educational institutions. To achieve these goals, the researcher followed the descriptive study, using the social survey. By applying the questionnaire tool to a sample of (75) social workers in the Education institutions, in Beni Suef City. The results of the study confirmed that the quality of work life of social workers in educational institutions Medium, and the level of job burnout among social workers in educational institutions was weak. The study also confirmed the existence of an inverse relationship with statistical significance between the dimensions of quality of work life (the physical and moral work environment, organizational and functional work environment), and the level of job burnout (Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, Personal Accomplishment). The results of the study showed that there were no statistically significant differences about the quality of the work life among social workers, due to the variables (gender, age, marital status, and years of service). As well as, there were no differences about the job burnout among social workers, due to the variables (gender, age and years of service). While there were statistically significant differences according to the social status of social workers. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that there was a correlation between the quality of work life and job burnout among social workers. Accordingly, interventions to improve the quality of work life, reduce burnout, increase the level of personal accomplishment, and ultimately provide clients with better services. Key words: quality of work life, job burnout, social workers.

Burnout syndrome in primary healthcare professionals

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the level of burnout syndrome among primary healthcare professionals in Canton Sarajevo and whether there is a link between the levels of burnout syndrome and sociodemographic parameters.&#x0D; Methods: We included a total of 300 primary healthcare professionals. The burnout syndrome level was measured by Maslach Burnout Inventory, consisting of 22 particles (3 subscales) measuring the level of emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and personal accomplishment (PA). We analyzed the correlation and difference between the level of burnout and sociodemographic parameters.&#x0D; Results: The study revealed that in Canton Sarajevo 25.3% of healthcare professionals experience a high level of EE, 17.7% experience DP, and 19.0% experience a low level of PA. The subjects under 40 years experienced a higher level of EE than older subjects (p=0.000). There were significant differences in PA subscale between men and women (p=0.033), women having lower level of PA than males. Respondents who worked in shifts and respondents with indefinite period employment experience significantly a high level of EE. Subjects who drink alcohol had a higher level of DP.&#x0D; Conclusion: Healthcare professionals are at increased risk of burnout. Factors which increase the burnout syndrome risk in health professionals in Sarajevo Canton were: age under 40 years old, female, working in shifts and drinking alcohol.

Willingness to migrate\u2014a potential effect of burnout? A survey of Hungarian physicians

BackgroundBurnout worldwide and migration of caregivers are among the most important challenges of the twenty-first century health care.MethodsQuantitative, online survey of Hungarian physicians (n = 4 784) was performed in 2013. A link to an anonymous, self-administered questionnaire was sent to all potential participants, namely to the registered members of the Hungarian Medical Chamber with a valid e-mail address. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors of burnout. The association between physicians’ burnout and their willingness to migrate was determined by binary logistic regression analysis.ResultsModerate/mild level of personal accomplishment was detected in 65% of respondents, whereas moderate/severe level of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization was detected in 49% and 46%, respectively. Single male physicians younger than 35 composed the cohort with the highest risk for developing burnout. Higher daily working hours and multiple workplaces contribute to the risk of developing burnout.According to logistic regression analysis, the intention to work abroad was affected by the emotional exhaustion dimension of burnout (OR = 1.432) and depersonalization had a tendency to have an impact on the willingness to migrate.ConclusionsWe assume that there is a circular causality between burnout and the willingness to migrate. Burnout increases the willingness to work abroad, whereas contemplating migration might evoke a certain degree of depersonalization in caregivers who are in a dilemma.
