医生职业倦怠的测量很重要,因为医生的幸福感可能会影响劳动力的稳定性和护理质量。在本研究中,针对Maslach职业倦怠量表的子量表(情绪衰竭、去人格化和个人成就感),对职业倦怠的单项测量进行了验证。调查项目包括22个项目的Maslach职业倦怠问卷,一个单一的职业倦怠测量项目,以及其他有关人口统计学、实践特征和职业满意度的问题。这些调查问卷邮寄给了德克萨斯理工大学医学院1980-届的校友。有效率为43%(n=307)。采用皮尔逊相关系数和方差分析来确定Maslach职业倦怠问卷得分与单项职业倦怠问题之间的关系。单项目与情绪衰竭的相关系数r=0.64(p<0.0001),方差分析得出R-2为0.5(p<0.0001)。因此,在情绪衰竭是主要关注的子量表的医生调查中,可以使用单项职业倦怠测量作为Maslach职业倦怠问卷的替代,以便缩短调查材料,并潜在地提高医生的应答率。版权所有(C)2004 John Wiley Sons,Ltd.
The measurement of burnout among physicians is important because physician well-being has the potential to affect workforce stability and quality of care. In this study, a single-item measure of burnout was validated against the sub-scales of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment). Survey items included the 22-item Maslach Burnout Inventory, a single-item measure of burnout, and other questions regarding demographics, practice characteristics, and occupational satisfaction. The surveys were mailed to Texas Tech University School of Medicine Alumni classes of 1980-1989. The response rate was 43 per cent (n = 307). Pearson correlation coefficients and ANOVA were used to determine the association between the Maslach Burnout Inventory scores and the single-item burnout question. The single-item was correlated at r = 0.64 (p < 0.0001) with emotional exhaustion and the ANOVA yielded an R-2 of 0.5 (p < 0.0001). Hence, in surveys of physicians where emotional exhaustion is the primary sub-scale of interest, a single-item measure of burnout may be used as an alternative to the Maslach Burnout Inventory in order to abbreviate survey material and potentially increase response rates among physicians.
