该研究评估了人格对监狱工作人员职业倦怠的作用。大约120英国监狱官员完成问卷评估三个维度的倦怠，大五人格变量，和控制点。神经质对情绪耗竭和个人成就感有预测作用，心理控制源对倦怠各维度均有预测作用。神经质和外部控制点较高的监狱官员可能有更大的倦怠风险。未来的研究可能会检查是否压力管理干预措施减轻人员倦怠，特别关注的人员的个性特征使他们处于危险之中。
The study assessed the role of personality on burnout in prison officers. About 120 U.K. prison officers completed questionnaires assessing three dimensions of burnout, the big five personality variables, and locus of control. Neuroticism predicted emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment, and locus of control predicted all burnout dimensions. Prison officers higher in neuroticism and with an external locus of control might be at greater risk for burnout. Future studies might examine whether stress-management interventions alleviate officer burnout, with particular attention to officers whose personality profile places them at risk.
