Burnout syndrome is a problem in healthcare workers in the field of health and education. From the 1970s to the present it has been the focus of growing interest in various research. The professional attrition of teachers, in particular, has been addressed in studies published in journals of scientific relevance, which highlights a phenomenon in the educational field that is of concern in different contexts. Conceptual cartographic diving is proposed in SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) of the most cited articles related to teacher burnout. We work on theoretical categories that allow us to penetrate discussions about burnout in teaching through the use of the software QDA Miner 5 and WordStat 7. The analysis allows us to review psychosocial contributions regarding the syndrome in literature, feedback questions, and anticipate new concerns in relation to recent and impact investigations.

This observational study was ordered by the Medical Practitioners’ Chamber in Warsaw. THE OBJECTIVE of the study was to evaluate the problem of professional burnout of physicians correlation between professional burnout and features of personality. MATERIAL AND METHODS. Professional burnout was considered relative to different features of personality. This study was initially carried out from 2005–2008, but further analysis of burnout and personality was carried out from 2017–2018. The research tools were anonymous, validated questionnaires. The sample size was based on the size of the population— the registry of the Regional Chamber of Medical Practitioners and literature on burnout prevalence. The respondents’ work places were randomly selected from the Mazovian District register. RESULTS. The test on burnout was completed by 378 respondents, while 62 subjects completed a personality test. Results showed that burnout syndrome was an occupational problem for healthcare workers. Professional burnout affected as many as 42% of respondents (n = 158). It affected two age groups in particular: physicians up to 31 years old and individuals aged 41-50. Moreover, neuroticism was found to be significantly related to burnout syndrome. CONCLUSION. burnout syndrome is common among professionally active medical practitioners, and neuroticism may be correlated with burnout syndrome.

The article presents a research review on the problem of teacher burnout syndrome and the human resources of general education institutions in connection with the implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard (FSES). Researchers note an increase in the proportion of teaching staff at risk of emotional burnout at work, as well as professional deformations of the teacher’s personality. The article substantiates the relevance of consideration of management issues related to the development of the human resources of educational institutions through the prism of effective interaction of managers with the teaching staff and the teacher’s personality in the context of preventing their emotional burnout. The abundance of research on the problem of burnout indicates the continued interest of scholars of humanities and natural sciences for quality of life, psychological health, personal and professional development of teachers of general education schools designed to act as carriers of new ideas and innovative technologies, the moral and socio-economic transformation of society. The authors consider the concepts associated with the development of human resources, making the main emphasis on the role of the human factor, and the reserves of the teacher’s personality, propose to create a kind of Internet platforms in each city, namely, virtual pedagogical sites as an alternative to motivating pedagogical creativity, as well as offer systematization of various burnout factors and prevention measures.

Background: Burnout syndrome occurs in people who work in jobs which involve frequent and intense contact with people, especially healthcare workers. High dependency departments such as critical care units are very stressful environments, and this can lead to a greater incidence of burnout, especially of emotional exhaustion and poor personal accomplishment. Nurses are the largest group of healthcare workers, and so it is reasonable to expect they would have a high prevalence of burnout.Subjects and methods: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of burnout in critical care nurses in Croatia and explore its association with demographic features. A cross-sectional study of 620 nurses was conducted in several university hospitals, using convenience sampling. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was administered, together with questions about the sociodemographic and work characteristics of the participants (age, gender, length of work in ICU, education, type of ICU).Results: The majority of the sample were female nursing staff (87.7%), aged 26-35 (38.9%). The results showed that approximately every fifth nurse (22.1%) expressed a high emotional exhaustion (EE), with lesser burden of a high depersonalisation (D) in 7.9%, yet every third nurse (34.5%) scored low on PA. Male nurses reported more depersonalisation (p=0.045), yet neither EE nor the PA dimensions differed by gender.Conclusion: The results of this study concerning burnout are comparable to those of studies of other professions, but the results vary with regard to the sample and the working conditions of the countries.

Purpose: This study identified the effect of occupational dysfunction on psychological factors of stress response, burnout syndrome, and depression in healthcare workers. Method: Three cross sectional studies were conducted to assess the following relations: 1) occupational dysfunction on stress response (n = 468), 2) occupational dysfunction on burnout syndrome (n = 1142), and 3) occupational dysfunction on depression (n = 687). Personal characteristics were collected through a questionnaire (such as age, gender, and job category, opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships) as well as the Classification and Assessment of Occupational Dysfunction (CAOD). Furthermore, study 1 included the Stress Response Scale-18 (SRS-18), study 2 used the Japanese Burnout Scale (JBS), and study 3 employed the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and path analysis of structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis were used in all of the studies. EFA and CFA were used to measure structural validity of four assessments; CAOD, SRS-18, JBS, and CES-D. For examination of a potential covariate, we assessed the correlation of the total score of CAOD and personal factors in all studies. Moreover, direct and indirect effects of occupational dysfunction on stress response (Study 1), burnout syndrome (Study 2), and depression (Study 3) were also analyzed. Results: CAOD had 16 items and 5 factors. SRS-18 had 18 items and 3 factors, JBS had 17 items and 3 factors, CES-D had 20 items and 4 factors. All studies found that there were significant correlations between the CAOD total score and the personal factor that included opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships (p<0.01). The causal sequence model results suggest that the classification of occupational dysfunction had positive causal effects on the stress response (RMSEA = 0.058, CFI = 0.951, and TLI = 0.947), burnout syndrome (RMSEA = 0.074, CFI = 0.922, and TLI = 0.915), and depression (RMSEA=0.059, CFI=0.926, TLI=0.920). Moreover, the positive effect of external covariates include opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships on occupational dysfunction. Conclusion: The classification of occupational dysfunction indicated a possibility of increase in the stress response, burnout syndrome, and depression in healthcare workers. Furthermore, occupational dysfunction affected personal factors including opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt occupational therapy strategies to prevent this problem.

Purpose.The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the hypothetical model based on structural relationship with the occupational dysfunction on psychological problems (stress response, burnout syndrome, and depression) in healthcare workers.Method.Three cross sectional studies were conducted to assess the following relations: (1) occupational dysfunction on stress response (n= 468), (2) occupational dysfunction on burnout syndrome (n= 1,142), and (3) occupational dysfunction on depression (n= 687). Personal characteristics were collected through a questionnaire (such as age, gender, and job category, opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships) as well as the Classification and Assessment of Occupational Dysfunction (CAOD). Furthermore, study 1 included the Stress Response Scale-18 (SRS-18), study 2 used the Japanese Burnout Scale (JBS), and study 3 employed the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and path analysis of structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis were used in all of the studies. EFA and CFA were used to measure structural validity of four assessments; CAOD, SRS-18, JBS, and CES-D. For examination of a potential covariate, we assessed the correlation of the total and factor score of CAOD and personal factors in all studies. Moreover, direct and indirect effects of occupational dysfunction on stress response (Study 1), burnout syndrome (Study 2), and depression (Study 3) were also analyzed.Results.In study 1, CAOD had 16 items and 4 factors. In Study 2 and 3, CAOD had 16 items and 5 factors. SRS-18 had 18 items and 3 factors, JBS had 17 items and 3 factors, and CES-D had 20 items and 4 factors. All studies found that there were significant correlations between the CAOD total score and the personal factor that included opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships (p< 0.01). The hypothesis model results suggest that the classification of occupational dysfunction had good fit on the stress response (RMSEA = 0.061, CFI = 0.947, and TLI = 0.943), burnout syndrome (RMSEA = 0.076, CFI = 0.919, and TLI = 0.913), and depression (RMSEA = 0.060, CFI = 0.922, TLI = 0.917). Moreover, the detected covariates include opportunities for refreshment, time spent on leisure activities, and work relationships on occupational dysfunction.Conclusion.Our findings indicate that psychological problems are associated with occupational dysfunction in healthcare workers. Reduction of occupational dysfunction might be a strategy of better preventive occupational therapies for healthcare workers with psychological problems. However, longitudinal studies will be needed to determine a causal relationship.

Purpose: Belief conflict has been hypothesized to contribute to increased stress and burnout syndrome among healthcare workers. However, tests on this hypothesis have been limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of belief conflict on stress and burnout syndrome in healthcare workers using structural equation modeling (SEM). Method: A sample of 488 participants (4.3% physicians, 32.4% nurses, 16.2% occupational therapists, 10.7% physical therapists, 36.4% other) responded to a questionnaire based on the Assessment of Belief Conflict in Relationship-14 (ABCR-14), Stress Response Scale-18 (SRS-18), and Japanese Burnout Scale (JBS). These data were examined using descriptive statistics and a causal sequence model. Results : The hypothesized model exhibited an excellent model fit (RMSEA = 0.041, CFI = 0.937, TLI = 0.933). The results suggested that belief conflict has positive causal effects on stress and burnout syndrome: standardized total effect = 0.676 (S.E. = 0.041, Est . /S.E. = 16.334, p-value = 0.000, 95% CI = 0.411; 0.646), standardized total indirect effect = 0.221 (S.E. = 0.031, Est . /S.E. = 7.066, p-value = 0.000, 95% CI = 0.115; 0.231), standardized direct effect = 0.455 (S.E. = 0.048, Est . /S.E. = 9.497, p-value = 0.000, 95% CI = 0.257; 0.455). Conclusion: This study indicated that healthcare workers suffer stress and burnout related to belief conflict. Therefore, assessment of belief conflict in healthcare workers, followed by appropriate intervention where indicated, would be beneficial in preventing stress and burnout.
