与其他社会服务工作者不同，家庭暴力和性侵犯的倡导者只经历了中度的倦怠。本研究扩展了职业倦怠研究，探索工作需求和适应因素在倡导人群中与职业倦怠相关的同时影响。作者指出了良好的当兵现象，即倡导者适应有价值、但有风险、要求高和资源贫乏的工作。优秀的士兵与“召唤”相关，但又有别于“召唤”，因为它与职位有关，而不仅仅是内在的动机。作者发现，尽管工作需求会显著增加职业倦怠，但认同良好参军经验的倡导者的职业倦怠水平会显著降低。
Domestic violence and sexual assault advocates, unlike other social service workers, experience only moderate burnout. The present study extends burnout research, exploring simultaneous effects of job demands and adaptation factors as they relate to burnout in the advocacy population. The authors identify the good soldiering phenomenon in which advocates adapt to work that is worthwhile, but risky, demanding, and resource poor. Good soldiering is related to, but distinct from, a "calling" because it links to the position, not simply intrinsic motivation. The authors find that though job demands significantly increase burnout, advocates who identify with good soldiering experience significantly lower levels of burnout.
