León Rubio AB - Professionals must develop a series of necessary generic competences for the correct performance of their work, where those related to emotional self-regulation and coping with occupational psychosocial risk factors stand out. The present study examines the role of perceived occupational coping self-efficacy as a modulating variable of burnout. We have found a differential modulator effect of self-efficacy on burnout in terms of working conditions; So that under some of that conditions (i.e. overload) self-efficacy protects against emotional exhaustion and under others (i.e. role ambiguity) self-efficacy can increase the probability of burnout occurrence.
