The Medical Burnout: Anxiety and coping process as relevant factors
Author | |
Abstract |
To date there are not many studies focused on burnout like a process, where both environment and personality variables are considered. The present study had two central aims: to test what variables significantly effect the burnout process, and to clarify the empirical relationship between anxiety, coping styles and burnout. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach y Jackson, 1986), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Spielberger, Gorsuch y Lushene, 1988), the Ways of Coping Checklist (Lazarus y Folkman, 1984) and the Situational Medical Coping (Moreno-Jiménez y Seminotti, 1998) were administered to a sample of 130 physicians who work in eight public hospitals in Madrid. The independent variables were gender, marital status, medical group, clinical experience, age and speciality. Results showed a strong relationship among the dependent variables in gender, medical group and age through the GLM Multivariate MANOVA. A stepwise regression analysis provided relevant results to determine the theoretical situational model in Burnout process.
