目的：本研究有两个目标：评估二次创伤和工作倦怠之间的差异，并检查二次创伤在预测心理困扰方面的效用。方法：这些数据来自一项对生活在纽约市的社会工作者（N = 236）的调查，这些调查是在9月11日世界贸易中心（WTC）遭受恐怖袭击后的20个月内进行的。结果：社会工作者参与世贸中心恢复工作与二次创伤有关，但与职业倦怠无关。分析还显示，在控制了其他危险因素后，二次创伤和职业倦怠与心理困扰有关。结论：这项研究支持同情疲劳作为社会工作者咨询创伤客户及其与心理问题的关联的风险因素的重要性。
Objective: The present study has two goals: to assess the difference between secondary trauma and job burnout and to examine the utility of secondary trauma in predicting psychological distress. Method: The data come from a survey of social workers ( N = 236) living in New York City 20 months following the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center ( WTC). Results: Social workers' involvement in WTC recovery efforts is related to secondary trauma but not burnout. Analyses also reveal that both secondary trauma and burnout are related to psychological distress after controlling for other risk factors. Conclusion: This study supports the importance of compassion fatigue as a risk factor for social workers counseling traumatized clients and its association with psychological problems.
