Les déterminants de l'épuisement professionnel et des troubles musculosquelettiques et leur cooccurrence chez les policiersDrolet, Marie-Ève 03 1900 (has links)
Ce mémoire est rédigé dans le cadre d’une recherche multidisciplinaire visant à développer de meilleurs outils d’intervention et politiques en santé mentale au travail. L’objectif principal de cette étude était de cibler les déterminants de l’épuisement professionnel et des troubles musculosquelettiques et leur cooccurrence chez une population policière. Un échantillon de 410 policiers du Service de Police de Montréal (SPVM) a été sondé à l’aide d’un questionnaire basé sur des outils standardisés en santé mentale au travail. Les conditions organisationnelles, variables indépendantes de cette étude, ont été identifiées à partir de modèles théoriques validés.
L’analyse segmentée de chacun des grands concepts (latitude décisionnelle, soutien social au travail, demandes, justice distributive et sur engagement) révèle que l’effet des conditions organisationnelles ne se manifeste pas également sur chacune des trois dimensions de l’épuisement professionnel (l’épuisement émotionnel, le cynisme et l’efficacité professionnelle). De plus, on observe que les trois formes de récompenses de justice distributive tirées du modèle « Déséquilibre-Efforts-Récompenses » (Siegrist, 1996) ne sont pas distribuées également selon les dimensions de l’épuisement professionnel. Selon nos données, la justice distributive d’estime de soi et le sur engagement s’avèrent significatifs dans tous les cas en regard des dimensions de l’épuisement professionnel et de son indice global.
Finalement, nos résultats révèlent que la justice distributive d’estime de soi a un lien significatif sur la cooccurrence de l’épuisement professionnel et des troubles musculosquelettiques. Par contre, on note que des outils de recherche plus spécifiques permettraient une analyse approfondie de l’effet des conditions organisationnelles sur les troubles musculosquelettiques et sur l’effet de cooccurrence entre les deux problèmes à l’étude. / This thesis was written in the scope of a multidisciplinary research aiming to develop better intervention tools and policies for management of mental health in the workplace. The main objective was to identify the determining factors of burnout, musculoskeletal disorders, and their associated comorbidity within a population of police officers. Four hundred and ten officers from the Service de Police de la Ville de Montreal (SPVM) were interrogated using a questionnaire based on standard tools in work-related mental health research. The organizational conditions (main independent variables for this study) were derived from validated theoretical models.
The data analysis consists of a segmented approach that looks at the effect of each concept (decisional latitude, social support, demands, rewards, and overcommitment). This revealed that the effects of organizational conditions were unevenly distributed among the three dimensions of burnout (emotional exhaustion, cynicism and personal accomplishment). Moreover, it was observed that three different types of rewards described in the “Effort-Reward Imbalance Model” (Siegrist, 1996) also had uneven effects on the likelihood of burnout. According to our data, self-esteem rewards and the overcommitment phenomenon had the most significant impact on each of the three dimension of burnout and on its global index.
Finally, our results show that self-esteem rewards are significantly related to the comorbidity of musculoskeletal disorders and burnout. However, we note that more specific research tools would enable further analysis of the effect of organizational conditions on musculoskeletal disorders and more detailed explanation of the comorbidity relationship between the two disorders.

The influence of work stress and work support on burnout in public hosptial nurses.Spooner-Lane, Rebecca January 2004 (has links)
Lazarus and Folkman's (1984) transactional stress-strain-coping theory provides the theoretical background for the present thesis. This theory proposes that strain (i.e., burnout) occurs when demands (i.e., work stressors) exceed coping resources (e.g., social support). The current thesis explores the influence of social support on the stress-burnout relationship in nurses. A sample of Australian nurses working across three public hospitals in Brisbane's metropolitan district were recruited to investigate the nature and level of burnout experienced by nurses. Burnout is characterised by emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation and reduced personal accomplishment. The present research addresses gaps in the empirical literature by investigating the key work stressors experienced by Australian nurses and by establishing nurses' referent levels of work stress, social support, and burnout. In addition, the research explores the complex relationships between work stress, social support and burnout. The majority of nursing studies have failed to consider how support from within the nurses' work environment mitigates burnout. The present research builds upon previous nursing literature by examining the "main&qout; and "buffering" effect hypotheses. Studies have consistently found support for the main effect model, however the hypothesis that social support buffers the negative effects of stress has resulted in highly conflicting findings. Some theorists (Cohen & Wills, 1985; Cutrona & Russell, 1990) propose that the buffering effects of social support will only be found if there is an adequate match between the needs elicited by the stressful event and the type of support an individual receives. The present study extends the stress or support matching theory by exploring the matching between specific types of stressors to specific types (i.e., emotional and instrumental) and sources (i.e.,supervisor and coworkers) of support. Cutrona (1990) suggests that the controllability of a stressor is the primary dimension in determining an appropriate match between stressors and types of support. Cutrona proposes that controllable stressful events elicit needs for instrumental support and uncontrollable events elicit needs for emotional support. Heeding Cutrona's advice, independent raters classified nurses' work stressors as controllable or uncontrollable stressful events prior to investigating the stressor-support matching theory. Three sequential studies were undertaken to explore the variables of interest to this research program. In Study 1, focus groups were conducted with 68 nurses (11 males, 34 females) from two public hospitals. The qualitative data was subjected to content analysis. The findings revealed that Australian nurses are exposed to a range of job-specific stressors (i.e., Job Conditions, Job Uncertainty, Interpersonal Conflict and a Lack of Professional Recognition and Support) and generic role stressors (i.e., Role Overload, Role Conflict and Role Ambiguity). The findings prompted the research to utilise Wolfgang's (1988) Health Professions Stress Inventory to measure nurses' job-specific stressors and Osipow and Spokane's (1987) Occupational Roles Questionnaire to measure nurses' role stressors in Study 2. The findings from Study 1 also confirmed that the way nurses perceive work support is consistent with current social support literature. Nurses indicated that their two main sources of support were their coworkers and their supervisor. Furthermore, nurses discussed social support from a multidimensional perspective, recognising different types of support that were broadly classified as emotional and instrumental support. Based on these findings, the researcher developed a work support measure specifically for the purpose of this research. Items were taken from established social support scales and were slightly modified to ensure that they were contextually relevant to nurses. In Study 2, 273 nurses (38 males, 235 females) completed a multi-measure questionnaire. While there was sufficient research evidence to indicate that the Occupational Roles Questionnaire (Osipow & Spokane, 1987) and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach, Jackson, & Leiter, 1996) possess adequate levels of reliability and validity, less was known about Wolfgang's Health Professions Stress Inventory and the work support scales designed for this research program. Factor analysis of the Health Professions Stress Inventory revealed a four-factor solution: Lack of Professional Recognition and Support, Patient Care Uncertainty, Job Conditions, and Interpersonal Conflict. Cronbach's coefficient alphas ranged from .62 to .83. Factor analysis of the Coworker Support Scale revealed a two-factor solution, representing emotional and instrumental support. Cronbach's coefficient alphas for the Emotional Coworker Support and Instrumental Coworker Support were .92 and .88 respectively. Contrary to expectations, factor analysis of the Supervisor Support Scale revealed a one-factor solution. It was therefore deemed appropriate to examine Supervisor Support as a unidimensional construct in subsequent analyses. Cronbach's coefficient alpha for the Supervisor Support scale was .96. Overall, the results from Study 2 provided supporting evidence to suggest that the measures used in the current research program were psychometrically sound. In Study 3, the data collected in Study 2 was subjected to further statistical analysis. The findings from Study 3 indicated that overall, the sample of Australian nurses reported low to moderate levels of work stress, moderate levels of work support and moderately high levels of burnout. For Emotional Exhaustion, predictor variables accounted for 42.2% of the total variance. Sociodemographic factors explained a small but significant proportion of the variance (2.7%). Work stressors however, were the main predictors of Emotional Exhaustion, explaining 41.5% of the total variance. Role Overload, Job Conditions and Role Conflict were the main determinants of Emotional Exhaustion, with Role Overload explaining most of the variance. For Depersonalisation, the predictor variables accounted for 34.2% of the total variance. Sociodemographic factors (11.5%) and work stressors (33.6%) both explained a significant proportion of the variance. Role Conflict and Patient Care Uncertainty were the main determinants of Depersonalisation, with Role Conflict explaining most of the variance. For Personal Accomplishment, Role Conflict and Role Ambiguity explained 20.5% of the total variance, with Role Conflict explaining most of the variance. Sociodemographic factors and job-specific stressors were not significant Predictors of Personal Accomplishment. Evidence for main effects of work support on burnout were limited. There was no evidence to suggest that work support had significant main effects on Emotional Exhaustion. Supervisor Support had a small, but significant main effect on Depersonalisation (â = -.15, p < .05) and Personal Accomplishment (â = -.24, p < .01). There was no evidence of main effects for Emotional and Instrumental Coworker Support. Furthermore, the present research found no significant evidence to support the buffering effect of work support on burnout. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

The relationship between burnout, coping and sense of coherence amongst engineers and scientistsVan Jaarsveld, Johann 30 November 2004 (has links)
Engineers and scientists have to cope with the challenges of a complex work environment. This study investigated the relationship between burnout, coping and sense of coherence amongst engineers and scientists.
The Maslach Burnout Inventory, COPE and Sense of Coherence questionnaires were used. The study was conducted with 272 engineers and scientists at a global petro-chemical company with its head office based in South Africa.
A theoretical relationship was determined and an empirical investigation provided evidence of such a relationship. The results confirmed a relationship between burnout, coping and sense of coherence amongst engineers and scientists. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M. Com.

An investigation into the relationship between spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, coping ability, and burnout among humanitarian aid workers in ZimbabweNharirire, Edwin 02 1900 (has links)
This study examined the relationship between spiritual intelligence (SI), emotional intelligence (EI), coping ability (CA), and burnout (BO) among humanitarian aid workers in Zimbabwe. A convenience sample of 296 (53% males and 47% females) humanitarian aid workers was used in the study. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were used to explore the contribution of SI, EI, and CA to the burnout. Results indicated that SI, EI, and CA are all significantly related to Burnout and its dimensions of emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalisation (DP) and personal accomplishment (PA) in humanitarian aid workers. CA and EI significantly contributed to the variation of scores in EE and DP whereas SI did not. However, all the three variables significantly contributed to the variation in PA. Gender, age, employment status and tenure in NGO had no significant relationships with EE, DP, or PA whereas contract type, length of service, educational level and nature of work were associated with statistically significant differences in EE, DP, and PA. The research contributed to the understanding of burnout among aid workers in Zimbabwe. Humanitarian organisations can use the findings to come up with scientifically backed recruitment, selection, training, and staff wellbeing policies and programmes that help to reduce the impact of burnout in the humanitarian aid sector. / Psychology / D.

Burnout, coping and sense of coherence in an engineering organisationViljoen, Alana 09 May 2013 (has links)
Burnout can occur in any occupation and is a risk in the modern world of work. The objective of the study was to investigate how burnout, coping and sense of coherence are related and influence each other in an engineering environment. A Cross-sectional survey design was used in this descriptive study. The convenience sample consisted of 118 engineers and scientists at various levels in a global engineering organisation that is based in South Africa.
The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), Coping Orientations to the Problems Experienced (COPE) and Sense of Coherence (SOC) questionnaires were administered for this quantitative study. A theoretical relationship was proved by means of a literature study and an empirical relationship proved that there is indeed a relationship between the constructs and that focus and venting of emotions as well as SOC are predictors of emotional exhaustion and cynicism. SOC also proved to be a predictor of professional efficacy. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)

A comparative study of burnout among teachers in a Youth Juvenile Rehabilitation center, an Ex model C school, and Public schoolsClayford, Mario January 2010 (has links)
Magister Psychologiae - MPsych / This study examined three schools; namely a Public, Ex model C, and a Youth juvenile rehabilitation school. A non-experimental survey design was used for this study. The sample consisted of 47 educators across the three types of schools. Data was collected by means of two instruments: a demographic questionnaire, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) consisting of three subscales namely; Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, and Diminished Personal Accomplishment. It was hypothesised that due to the stressful nature of work in disadvantaged and resource lacking schools, as well as the unstable and unsafe environment in certain schools, burnout among educators in Public and Youth juvenile rehabilitation schools will have a higher prevalence rate than educators in Ex model C schools. The study also aimed to identify which various educator demographic variables correlate with high burnout levels. Correlational results of the study found no significant relationships between the three subscales of the MBI and certain educator demographic variables across the three types of schools. The results of an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test revealed a borderline non-significant difference in the Emotional Exhaustion subscale between the Youth juvenile rehabilitation school and Public schools. Post Hoc comparison tests suggested Public school educators in the sample had the highest levels of burnout in terms of Emotional Exhaustion across the three types of schools, while educators in the Youth juvenile rehabilitation schools showed the lowest levels of burnout in terms of Emotional exhaustion. The results of the present study were discussed from the perspective of the Conservation of Resources theory, suggesting resource depletion as a central facet to burnout and how prolonged stress leads to burnout. Future qualitative studies exploring the etiology of burnout was thus recommended. / South Africa

Les pratiques de gestion à haute performance et l'épuisement émotionnelRegistre, Jean Frantz Ricardeau 12 1900 (has links)
Ce mémoire a pour objectif d’explorer l’effet indirect des pratiques de gestion à haute performance sur l’épuisement émotionnel. Les ressources du travail (latitude décisionnelle et soutien social des superviseurs) et les demandes du travail (demandes psychologiques et heures hebdomadaires travaillées) sont envisagées comme mécanismes de médiation dans cette relation. La théorie des demandes-ressources du travail (Demerouti, Bakker, Nachreiner et Schaufeli, 2001) qui est en toile de fond de ce travail est bonifiée par l’ajout d’un construit de niveau groupal dans l’explication de l’épuisement émotionnel. Aussi, cette étude vise à tester deux perspectives antagonistes sur l’effet des pratiques de gestion à haute performance sur la santé au travail. Les données à la base de cette étude proviennent de l’étude SALVEO réalisée, entre 2009 et 2012, par l’Équipe de recherche sur le travail et la santé mentale (ERTSM). Au total, 1961 employés répartis dans 89 groupes d’employés de 60 établissements ont été sondés sur leur niveau perçu de latitude décisionnelle, du soutien social des superviseurs, de demandes psychologiques, d’heures hebdomadaires travaillées et d’épuisement émotionnel. Les gestionnaires de ces établissements ont été sondés sur la mise en place des pratiques de gestion à haute performance. Pour tester les hypothèses, des analyses descriptives, bivariées et des analyses de cheminement de la causalité multiniveaux ont été réalisées. Les résultats suggèrent que les ressources du travail contribuent à réduire l’épuisement émotionnel alors que les demandes psychologiques contribuent à l’augmenter. Les résultats rejettent la perspective pluraliste et confirment l’approche unitariste en soutenant que certaines pratiques de gestion à haute performance telles que la rémunération variable et la participation à la prise de décision sont associées à moins d’épuisement émotionnel en procurant plus de ressources aux individus. D’autres comme la dotation sont aussi associées à moins d’épuisement émotionnel en réduisant les demandes psychologiques. Par ailleurs, cette étude ne confirme pas que la combinaison des pratiques de gestion à haute performance avait plus d’effet sur les individus que les pratiques prises de manière individuelle. Les résultats mettent en lumière toute l’importance de la poursuite des études portant sur l’association entre la gestion des ressources humaines et la santé au travail. / This thesis aims to explore the indirect effect of high-performance work practices on emotional exhaustion. Job resources (job control and supervisors social support) and job demands (psychological demands and work hours) are theorized as mediation mechanisms in this relationship. Job demands-resources theory (Demerouti et.al, 2001) in background of this work is enhanced by the addition of a group-level construct in the explanation of emotional exhaustion. Therefore, this study aims to test two antagonistic perspectives on the effect of high-performance work practices on occupational health. The data for this study is from the SALVEO study conducted between 2009 and 2012 by the Équipe de recherche sur le travail et la santé mentale (ERTSM). A total of 1,961 employees in 89 employee groups nested in 60 workplaces were surveyed on their perceived level of job control, supervisor social support, psychological demands, work hours and emotional exhaustion. The line managers were surveyed on the implementation of high-performance work practices. To test hypotheses, descriptive analysis, bivariate analysis, and multilevel path analysis were performed. Results suggest that job resources reduce emotional exhaustion whereas psychological demands increase it. The finding further reject the pluralist perspective and confirm the unitarist approach by arguing that some high-performance management practices such as compensation and participation in decision-making are associated with less emotional exhaustion by providing more job resources to individuals. Others like staffing are also associated with less emotional exhaustion by reducing jobs demands. Moreover, we did not find evidence that combination of high-performance management practices had more effect on individuals than individual practices. Results highlight the importance of continuing studies on the association between human resources management and occupational health.

The role of psychosocial working conditions on burnout and its core component emotional exhaustion – a systematic reviewSeidler, Andreas, Thinschmidt, Marleen, Deckert, Stefanie, Then, Francisca, Hegewald, Janice, Nieuwenhuijsen, Karen, Riedel-Helle, Steffi G. 14 July 2014 (has links)
Aims: To analyze the association between psychosocial working conditions and burnout and its core component emotional exhaustion, a systematic literature review was undertaken including cohort studies, case–control studies, and randomized controlled trials.
Methods: The literature search in Medline and PsycInfo was based on a defined search string and strict exclusion and inclusion criteria. Evaluation of the 5,599 initially identified search hits by two independent reviewers and a detailed quality assessment resulted in six methodologically adequate cohort studies considering the relationship between psychosocial working conditions and burnout (one study) as well as the burnout core component emotional exhaustion (five studies).
Results: The results of our systematic review point to a relationship between psychosocial working conditions and the development of emotional exhaustion/burnout. Particularly high job demands seem to play a role in the development of emotional exhaustion. However, strong intercorrelations between workplace factors, as a matter of principle, make the identification of a single psychosocial workplace factor (being associated with an especially high or low risk of burnout) difficult.
Conclusions: Multidimensional approaches including reduction of work demands, enhancement of decision latitude and improving the social climate might be promising for preventing burnout and emotional exhaustion. However, methodologically adequate intervention studies are urgently needed to prove the effectiveness of workplace interventions.
