目的：倦怠是一种由三个主要维度组成的综合症，即情绪耗竭、人格解体和个人成就感下降。其病因似乎是多因素的，涉及工作相关因素和包括人格特质在内的个人因素。在不同的医生群体中，性格与职业倦怠有关。然而，初级保健医生尚未对此进行充分研究。因此，本研究旨在调查加拿大和牙买加初级保健医生的性格类型与职业倦怠之间的关联。方法：这项横断面研究涉及加拿大和牙买加的初级保健医生。参与者完成了一份调查问卷，其中包括马斯拉克倦怠清单人类服务调查和五巨头清单。对反应进行分析以确定倦怠、性格类型和各种人口统计因素之间的关系。结果：77 名医生参与了这项研究。大约 38% 的参与者表示成就感较低，34% 的参与者表示情绪疲惫程度较高，20% 的参与者表示人格解体程度较高，所有这些都相当于倦怠程度较高。神经质与个人成就呈负相关（P
Purpose: Burnout is a syndrome comprised of three major dimensions, namely, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Its etiology appears to be multifactorial, involving work-related and personal factors including personality traits. Personality has been associated with burnout among various physician groups; however, this has not been studied well amongst primary care physicians. This study therefore aimed to investigate the association between personality type and burnout in primary care physicians in Canada and Jamaica.Methods: This cross-sectional study involved primary care physicians in Canada and Jamaica. Participants completed a questionnaire that included the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey and The Big Five Inventory. Responses were analyzed to determine relationships between burnout, personality type, and various demographic factors.Results: Seventy-seven physicians participated in the study. Approximately 38% of participants reported low levels of accomplishment, 34% reported high levels of emotional exhaustion, and 20% reported high levels of depersonalization, all equating to high levels of burnout. Neuroticism was negatively correlated with personal accomplishment (P
