METHODS: A longitudinal study involving a final sample of 122 healthcare workers (61.5% females, mean age = 39.09 ± 11.04 years) was conducted. These participants completed the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21).
RESULTS: Results of correlation analysis showed that emotional exhaustion was correlated with both T1 and T2 measures of depression, anxiety, and stress. Results of the moderation analysis indicated that emotional exhaustion moderated the relationships between consecutive measures of depression and anxiety. Each of the moderation models explained about half of the variance for depression and anxiety. When considering stress, results did not show a moderating role for emotional exhaustion.
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, the results of this study highlight that emotional exhaustion moderated depression and anxiety over time. Psychological interventions to promote psychological mental health among healthcare workers assisting patients with end-stage cancer should carefully consider these findings.
方法:一项纵向研究,涉及122名医护人员的最终样本(61.5%为女性,平均年龄=39.09±11.04岁)。这些参与者完成了Maslach倦怠量表(MBI)和抑郁焦虑压力量表-21(DASS-21)。
结果:相关分析结果显示,情绪耗竭与抑郁的T1和T2测量值相关,焦虑,和压力。适度分析的结果表明,情绪耗竭调节了连续抑郁和焦虑之间的关系。每个适度模型都解释了抑郁和焦虑的大约一半的方差。当考虑压力时,结果未显示对情绪衰竭的调节作用.
结论:总体而言,这项研究的结果强调,随着时间的推移,情绪疲惫可以缓解抑郁和焦虑。在帮助终末期癌症患者的医护人员中促进心理心理健康的心理干预措施应仔细考虑这些发现。
