Wstęp. Nieodzownym następstwem długotrwałego stresu jest wystąpienie syndromu wypalenia zawodowego. Wypalenie jest procesem, który rozwija się powoli. Pierwsze sygnały nie są dostrzegalne lub też są błędnie interpretowane. Szczególną grupą ryzyka narażoną na wypalenie są przedstawiciele zawodów pracujących dla ludzi i z ludźmi, a więc m.in. nauczyciele, policjanci, lekarze i pielęgniarki. Personel medyczny jest szczególnie narażony na wystąpienie syndromu wypalenia zawodowego, gdyż niejednokrotnie mimo ogromnego zaangażowania w pracę pacjent przegrywa w walce o zdrowie i życie. Cel pracy. Zbadanie poziomu wypalenia zawodowego wśród pielęgniarek/ pielęgniarzy. Materiał i metody. W badaniu wzięło udział 82 respondentów (80 kobiet i 2 mężczyzn). Badanie dotyczyło pielęgniarek/pielęgniarzy zatrudnionych w NZOZ Szpitala Powiatowego w Wieruszowie i zostało przeprowadzone w roku 2012. Do badania wykorzystano ankietę własnego autorstwa, która składała się z 22 pytań. Pytania ankiety zostały pogrupowane tematycznie: pierwsze cztery miały na celu zbadanie poziomu zmęczenia pracą, kolejnych pięć miało sprawdzić występowanie symptomów wypalenia zawodowego. Następne zagadnienia ankiety zdiagnozowały reakcję na stres chroniczny, empatię wobec pacjentów oraz stopień pozytywnego postrzegania pracy. Wyniki. Jednoznacznie o występowaniu wypalenia zawodowego mówi aż 40% pielęgniarek ze średnim stażem zatrudnienia, nieco mniej, bo 35% najmłodszych respondentów, również przyznaje, że mimo niezbyt długiego okresu pracy symptomy wypalenia są już u nich dostrzegalne. Natomiast najdłużej pracujące w zawodzie (tylko w 33%) mówią o wypaleniu zawodowym. Wnioski. Wypalenie zawodowe dosięga głównie pielęgniarki ze stażem pracy od 10 do 19 lat. Najlepiej zaprezentowały się pielęgniarki z najdłuższym stażem pracy. Zasadniczy wpływ na postawę, zaangażowanie i wystąpienie symptomów wypalenia zawodowego ma poczucie skuteczności i wrażenie, że w pracy nie osiągnęło się znaczących rezultatów.

Background. An essential consequence of prolonged stress is an instance of burnout syndrome. Burn-out is a process that develops slowly. The first signs are not visible or are misinterpreted. Special risk group exposed to burn are professionals working for and with people, and so teachers, police officers, doctors and nurses. Medical staff is particularly exposed to the instance of the burnout syndrome, because more often than not, despite a huge involvement in the work of the patient loss in the fight for health and life. Objectives. To examine the level of burnout among nurses. Material and methods. The study involved 82 respondents (80 women and 2 men). The study included nurses working in Hospital in Wieruszów it was carried out in 2012. We used a questionnaire that was developed by authors of this study, which consisted 22 questions. The survey questions have been grouped thematically, and so the first four questions were designed to examine the fatigue level of work, the following five questions were supposed to check the occurrence of symptoms of burnout. Another poll issues diagnosed the chronic stress, empathy to patients and the degree of positive perception of the work. Results. The occurrence of burnout was confirmed by 40% of nurses with the average length of employment, slightly less because 35% of the youngest respondents also confirm the burnout. Only 33% of nurses who are working for a long time in the profession confirm the professional burnout. Conclusions. Burnout reaches mainly nurses with experience lasting from 10 to 19 years. Impact on the attitude, commitment and an instance of the symptoms of burnout has a sense of efficacy and the impression that the work did not get significant results.

This research (N=943) examines the relationship between burnout, work engagement, and organizational factors that play an important role in the strain process (development of burnout), and in the motivational process (work engagement). The aim of the study is to test the relationships of burnout and work engagement, on the one hand, and organizational factors—job demands (workload) and job resources (control, relations with co-workers and superiors, rewards, fairness, and values)—on the other. The results of the analysis call into doubt whether burnout and work engagement are opposite poles of the same dimension, or whether they are independent, though correlated, constructs. Exhaustion and vigour are not the extremes of the same energy dimension, but in the case of cynicism and dedication, the situation is not so clear. It can be said that we are not dealing with the burnout of engagement, but rather with a change in attitude to work (increasing cynicism) on the part of people not suited to their jobs.

Purpose: Main goal of study was to present the opinion of medical volunteers on volunteers training consideration about burnout statements. Material and method: Research carried out a diagnostic survey method. Author's survey questionnaire consisted of two parts - general and basic were used. The study group included 210 active volunteers Results:There was seen an apparent over-representation of women - as much as 82% of the sample were women and only less than one of five respondents were male. The vast majority of respondents did not participate in training on the burnout. Conclusion: We demonstrated that the volunteers see the need for training for those interested in volunteering in the field of burnout.

Objectives. The aim of the study was to verify the factor structure of the Slovak version of MBI-HSS, one of the best-known tools for measuring burnout syndrome (Maslach, Leiter, 2017), on a sample of helping professionals. In line with the theoretical background and research results, five models were tested: a 3-factor model (emotional exhaustion - EE, depersonalization - DEP and reduced personal accomplishment - PA-r), a 2-factor model (EE and DEP) and three 1-factor models (EE, DEP and PA-r as separate, uncorrelated constructs). Method. The research was conducted on two samples of helping professionals (N1 = 454 and N2 = 387) who completed MBI-HSS. A confirmatory factor analysis (method of maximum likelihood) was implemented in IBM SPSS Statistics 25, Amos 25 and Jamovi 0.8.1.13 to test the data. Results. The analyses provided the best empirical support for three 1-factor models of EE, DEP and PA-r as independent constructs in both research samples. The internal consistency estimates (McDonald’s ω) of those three factors were satisfactory. The results showed that the MBIHSS questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool for measuring EE, DEP and PA-r as separate aspects of the burnout syndrome in the population of helping professionals in the Slovak settings. Study limitation. The tool was self-assessing. Test-retest reliability was not examined, neither were the relationships between EE, DEP and PA-r to related constructs. These limits provide some recommendations for further research.

Ciele. Zámerom výskumu bolo overiť faktorovú štruktúru slovenského prekladu jedného z najznámejších nástrojov na zisťovanie aspektov syndrómu vyhorenia (Maslach, Leiter, 2017) – dotazníka MBI-HSS – na súbore pomáhajúcich profesionálov. V súlade s teoretickými východiskami a výsledkami výskumov bolo overovaných päť modelov: 3-faktorový (emocionálne vyčerpanie – EE, depersonalizácia – DEP a znížená spokojnosť s pracovným výkonom – PA-r), 2-faktorový (EE a DEP) a tri 1-faktorové modely (EE, DEP a PA-r ako samostatné, nezávislé konštrukty). Metóda. Výskum prebiehal na dvoch súboroch pomáhajúcich profesionálov (N1= 454 a N2= 387), ktorí vypĺňali MBI-HSS. Bola realizovaná konfirmačná faktorová analýza (CFA; metóda maximum likelihood) v programe IBM SPSS Statistics 25, Amos 25 a Jamovi 0.8.1.13. Výsledky. Výsledky CFA na oboch súboroch podporili 1-faktorové modely, ktoré testovali EE, DEP a PA-r ako nezávislé, samostatné konštrukty. Všetky tri faktory vykazovali zároveň uspokojivé odhady vnútornej konzistencie (McDonaldova ω). Na základe analýz možno konštatovať, že dotazník MBI-HSS je reliabilný a validný nástroj na meranie jednotlivých aspektov syndrómu vyhorenia v populácii pomáhajúcich profesionálov v slovenskom prostredí. Limity. Nástroj mal sebaposudzovací charakter. V rámci výskumu nebola overovaná test-retestová reliabilita a konštruktová validita ani vzťahy faktorov vyhorenia s príbuznými konštruktmi, čo je zároveň perspektívou pre ďalší výskum.

This paper concerns the psychometric evaluation of the Polish version of a self-report questionnaire to measure burnout. Although the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) is the most commonly employed measure of burnout, researchers have been troubled by some of its psychometric limitations. The aim of this study is to examine the MBI-GS factor structure in three occupational groups (both within the human services sector and elsewhere), and to evaluate its reliability (internal consistency). In evaluating factorial validity, we carried out an explanatory analysis and a number of confirmatory analyses (using the total database and the three occupational groups). An additional aim was to explore the relationships between biographic characteristics (gender, age, work experience, employment level, and occupation) and burnout. The results of the confirmatory analyses show us that all three models fit the data almost acceptably, both in the total sample (N=998) and in the separate occupational groups, and that the fit of the three-factor solution appears to be somewhat better than that of the one- and two-factor solutions. When the initial model failed to fit the data well, we had to eliminate two items with weak reliability. The results then confirmed the factorial validity of the MBI-GS—as expected, the MBI-GS consists of three scales that are moderately correlate.

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia. The aim of this study was to determine the dependence between the quality of the caregiver-patient relationship and the psychological costs the caregiver bears during the caregiving period. This study encompassed 292 caregivers (104 partners, 117 children and 71 friends or others persons). The study indicated the greatest level of depression and caregiving-related burdens in the spouses group, and the least in the friends/others group. The most important predictor of the level of burden in the caregiving role turned out to be the nature of the caregiver-patient relationship; however, a varying set of the signifi cance of individual elements of this relationship were indicated in different caregiver groups.

The article contains theory-cognitive and empirical parts which aim at diagnosing the organisational reasons of burnout detected by managers in. The group of 45 managers who are the students of Executive MBA in the Institute of Economics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw took part in the research. The managers’ opinions about organisational risk factors of burnout which occur in their work environment were the research subject. Survrey was the main research tool used in the study. The following research problem was formulated: What organisational factors raiseing the risk of burnout are detected by managerial staff in their work environment? The analysis of respondents’ statements enable to identify of the following categories of burnout risk factors: pressure (of time, responsibility, expectations), lack of possibilities to develop occupational abilities and of prospects, the reasons entrenched in wrong interpersonal relations, lack of basic employees’ need, deficiencies of the motivational system and work organisation, failure to meet the making decisions. Indirectly, the research results indicate senior staff individualistic inertia. The respondents are conscious of burnout risk factors but they do not take enough effective action to build friendly organisational environment and promote healthy lifestyle. They estimate that the impact of these factors on the mental hygiene improvement in the enterprises is little. They are prone to detect potential sources of burnout in factors which they do not have direct influence on, for instance in the rules enforced by the high level managers, in law of tough market competition etc. There are no statistically significant differences between the responses of men and women. The article develops knowledge in the area of organisational behavior.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to review the effects of psychological capital on employees’ burn out in the work environment. This research is paired with Self-Efficacy Theory, which emphasizes that the results of efforts and performances are the most significant sources of self-efficacy. Methodology: Data collected from 416 Turkish workers employed at public institutions in Turkey were included in the analyses to identify the effects of psychological capital on burnout by using two different types of scales (burnout and psychological capital scales) into a single questionnaire form with Likert-type response scale. Beside the Reliability Analysis, different statistical valuation methods –such as regression and correlation analyses– have also been used. Findings: The results of analyses conducted on the sample of 416 Turkish workers reveal that statis tically significant relationships appear between self-efficacy and depersonalization, hope and low personal accomplishment, optimism and emotional exhaustion, optimism and depersonalization. Optimism is negatively related to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization while positively and insignificantly related to low personal accomplishment. Both self-efficacy and optimism are signifi cantly effective in explaining depersonalization. Hope positively and significantly contributes to explain the low personal accomplishment level of employees. On the other hand, optimism negatively and significantly contributes to emotional exhaustion. Implications: As found in the results of this research, optimism will decrease emotional exhaustion. Resilient people can more easily adapt to changes in life. Organizations may focus not only on improv ing organizational structure but also foregrounding workers’ positive personality traits and healthy psychological capital systems. Value: This research which emphasizes the effects of psychological capital on burnout levels of em- ployees is as valuable as others in relevant literature with different research results which are more valuable than the other. null

Hobfoll´s conservation of resources theory and burnout among prison service Since the 70's of the previous century, the phenomenon of professional burnout is interested in an increasing group of researchers around the world. There is a lot of empirical evidence that burnout is a serious threat to mental health and the ability of workers to work. The aim of the conducted study was to find an answer to the question of whether there is a relationship between losses and gains personal resources among prison service and determining which of the resources gained or lost remain in relation to individual components of occupational burnout. The research sample comprised 98 employees of the Prison Service from the Warmian-Masurian, Podlasie, and Pomeranian Voivodships and Mazowieckie. The following research tools were used in the study: Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-GS) and the Profit and Loss Self-Assessment Questionnaire (based on the theory of Stevan Hobfoll). Data analysis showed that losses of hedonistic and vital resources correlate negatively with all burnout scales, and profits with cynicism. Internal resource gains depend on exhaustion and cynicism. Family resources turned out to be in relation to cynicism. Gains of power and prestige are positively related to all dimensions of occupational burnout. Economic resource gains remain dependent on a sense of achievement.

The word burn out, comes from English “to burn”, which means burning and the words “out” from, out, out. Thus, the phrase “burn-out” is an expression of burnout or extinction. The original fire and the ignition of the symbol-psychologically high level of motivation goes to the person affected by the symptoms of burnout syndrome into extinction, where there is nothing, which means where he has nothing to worry about. For the Burnout Syndrome, there is as yet no generally accepted definition. Herbert Freudenberger first described this syndrome in 1975. The most important feature is chronic work-related stress and the imbalance between occupational expectation and professional reality, between ideals and reality. The burnout syndrome is the total burnout of human energy (and energy reserves) at the mental, physical and spiritual level in connection with the exercise of the profession. Burnout is formally defined as a state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion that has caused long-term persistence in situations that are emotionally challenging. This emotional difficulty occurs when great expectations are combined with chronic stress (Křivohlavý, 2012 p.18). The International Classification of Diseases advises burnout syndrome under ICD 10, category Z 73.O entitled Problems associated with difficulties in organizing life that have psychological, physical symptoms and symptoms in the plane of social relations. The severity of the burnout syndrome is currently up to date with both its content and its increase. “Our legislation does not define this disease in any category of legal norms, it does not recognize it as a diagnosis and we do not have one case law or legal argument developing the process or condition caused by the burnout syndrome” (Šoltésová, Ivor, 2006, s.20). In Spain and the United States of America, burnout syndrome is recognized by law as an occupational disease.

The article is devoted to the phenomenon of occupational burnout in social services professions. Occupational burnout was first reported in the seventies. Intense civilization changes and increasing demands placed on social services have caused that the psychological costs they incur. At work, doctors, nurses, teachers, emergency workers, police officers and others are becoming more and more significant. Representatives of these professions are exposed to severe stress, which they can not cope with, are permanently tired, exhausted, are less and less satisfied with the work they do. Taking up the fight with such burdens, they distance themselves from the people they help. Over time, their involvement in the profession is getting weaker. They change it or go into premature retirement. These phenomena are commonly called “burnout”.

This article is dedicated to the problem of professional burnout among Polish teachers and psychologists of state schools after the reform in the Polish system of education when gymnasiums (junior high schools) were introduced. A group of primary school, junior high school and high school teachers and psychologists are analyzed and compared in terms of three dimensions of burnout: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduced sense of personal accomplishment. Despite sharing the same work environment with teachers, school psychologists are those who are supposed to cope with burnout better because of their professional knowledge and experience.

Undoubtedly, serving as a police officer is associated with a high level of occupational stress. The stressfulness of this profession, which keeps increasing every year, results from several reasons, of which the most important ones include frequent participation in difficult and sometimes dramatic situations, endangering one’s own life and the lives of others, making quick decisions, bearing the burden of a potentially unjustified use of weapons, and exposure to trauma and other traumatic experiences of other people. The high level of stress related to the profession of a police officer is also associated with other factors, such as low wages, shifts, or paperwork. This paper looks at the notion and consequences of burnout among police officers on the example of the Krakow Constabulary. The study rests on a detailed survey of 110 officers based on the application of the ANOVA method of analysis of variance.

Objectives: The present study was designed to examine the links between empathy, emotional labor (both surface and deep acting), and emotional exhaustion as well as determine if emotional labor mediates the relationship between empathy and emotional exhaustion in teachers. It was assumed that emotional labor can take two opposite directions (positive mood induction and negative mood induction). Thus, the additional aim of the study was to analyze the mediating role of mood regulation strategies in the relationship between empathy and emotional exhaustion. Materials and Methods: A sample of 168 teachers from Łódź and its surroundings completed a set of questionnaires: Emotional Labor Scale; Mood Regulation Scales, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and Empathic Sensitivity Scale. Results: The results provided mixed support for the hypotheses indicating that both types of emotional labor, negative mood induction and emotional exhaustion were positively intercorrelated. Moreover, deep acting was a significant mediator in the relationship between empathy and emotional exhaustion. The analyzed link was also mediated by negative mood induction, whereas positive mood induction did not emerge as a significant mediator. Conclusions: The study provided insight into the role of empathy and emotional labor in the development of teacher burnout. It also confirmed that deep acting and negative mood induction mediate the relationship between empathy and emotional exhaustion in teachers.

Objective: The aim of this study was to review recent medical findings related to burnout, its diagnosis, treatment, characteristic pathophysiological features, and preventive measures. Materials and Methods: A systematic review of the scientific literature in PubMed/Medline was performed. The most recent and important findings were reported. Results: Burnout was found to be a risk factor for myocardial infarction and coronary heart disease. It was also related to reduced fibrinolytic capacity, decreased capacity to cope with stress and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis hypoactivity. Severe burnout symptoms are associated with a lower level or smaller increase of the cortisol awakening response (CAR), higher dehydroepiandrosterone-sulphate (DHEAS) levels, lower cortisol/DHEAS ratios and stronger suppression as measured by the dexamethasone suppression test (DST). More and more literature works suggest that the evaluation of the HPA axis should be brought to the attention of primary care physicians. There is no universal agreement on specific treatment and diagnostic measures to evaluate the wide range of HPA axis disorders. The cost-effective evaluation of adrenal hormones via saliva samples by a primary care physician may significantly alter the course of therapy in numerous chronic disease patients. Psychiatric disorders may have similar symptoms, but they have distinctive hormonal profiles. Having burnout recognized as a medical condition would help in differentiating burnout from similar clinical syndromes, such as depression or anxiety, and provide appropriate treatment to burnout patients. Proper treatment is essential for a fast and full recovery. Conclusion: Chronic stress-related disorders often fall outside the category of a "true" disease and are often treated as depression or not treated at all. The evaluation of adrenal hormones via saliva samples helps to predict burnout. Burnout screening techniques, dietary and nutritional guidelines and lifestyle changes for supporting the HPA function need to be developed. The presented material includes hormonal, dietary, and pharmaceutical perspectives.

Researches have mainly been focused on Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) positive effects to organizations. On the other hand, Compulsory Citizenship Behavior (CCB) is a rather new subject in both national and international literature. Transformation of organizational citizenship behaviors, which are expected to have positive effects on the organizational success into CCB due to various administrative and social pressures, brings about numerous negative consequences for employees and the organization. But the quantity of studies conducted on this subject is very limited for the time being. In this framework, the main aim of this study is to contribute to literature by analyzing the dynamics of CCB in a different culture and different line of business. In this study, relations between CCB and some positive and negative organizational attitudes and behaviors are examined. 635 people working in various accommodation businesses have participated in this research. Findings have shown that CCB is positively correlated with negative organizational consequences; and negatively correlated with positive organizational attitudes and behaviors. According to this, manager/supervisor related CCBs increase employees’ intentions to quit work, their level of burnout, job stress, social loafing behaviors, and conflict with their colleagues; and decrease their innovative behaviors, identification with the organization, and individual oriented OCBs.
