背景虽然护士的职业倦怠已经研究了很多，这项工作还没有包括韩国护士。此外，诸如同理心和授权等个人资源在预测倦怠变量中的作用从未被研究过。本研究旨在了解韩国护士的职业倦怠现象。通过对韩国护士职业倦怠的综合模型进行研究，确定了个体特征、工作压力和个人资源之间的显著预测因子，旨在为降低韩国护士职业倦怠水平的个体和组织干预提供依据。采用横断面相关设计。从1999年5月至2000年3月，在韩国南部的综合医院的178名护士的样本进行了调查。研究资料以纸笔自评问卷收集，并以描述性统计、皮尔逊相关及阶层式多元回归分析。韩国护士的职业倦怠水平高于西方国家的护士，如德国，加拿大，英国和美利坚合众国。工作压力大、认知同理心和授权较低、在三级医院上夜班的护士更容易出现倦怠。确定一个全面的模式，韩国护士的职业倦怠是一个重要的步骤，制定有效的管理策略，以减少问题。降低护士职业倦怠水平的建议包括提高护士的认知同理心和感知权力，提供明确的工作描述和工作期望，并探讨护士的轮班偏好，特别是在三级医院。在未来的研究中，我们建议招募护士从更广泛的地理区域使用随机选择，以增加调查结果的普遍性。
Background. Although burnout among nurses has been studied in a great deal, this work has not included Korean nurses. Furthermore, the role of personal resources such as empathy and empowerment in predicting the variance in burnout has never been examined.Aim. The purpose of this study was to understand the phenomenon of burnout among Korean nurses. A comprehensive model of burnout was examined to identify significant predictors among individual characteristics, job stress and personal resource, with the intention of providing a basis for individual and organizational interventions to reduce levels of burnout experienced by Korean nurses.Methods. A cross-sectional correlational design was used. A sample of 178 nurses from general hospitals in southern Korea was surveyed from May 1999 to March 2000. The data were collected using paper and pencil self-rating questionnaires and analysed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, and hierarchical multiple regression.Results. Korean nurses reported higher levels of burnout than nurses in western countries such as Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. Nurses who experienced higher job stress, showed lower cognitive empathy and empowerment, and worked in night shifts at tertiary hospitals were more likely to experience burnout.Conclusions. Identifying a comprehensive model of burnout among Korean nurses is an essential step to develop effective managerial strategies to reduce the problem. Suggestions to reduce the level of burnout include enhancing nurses' cognitive empathy and perceived power, providing clear job descriptions and work expectations, and exploring nurses' shift preferences, especially at tertiary hospitals. In future research we recommend recruiting nurses from broader geographical areas using random selection in order to increase the generalizability of the findings.
