Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome of this study is the change in the mean scores of each subscale of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The MBI will be administered at three time points: baseline (prior to the intervention), immediately after the intervention (4 weeks after the start), and at follow-up (8 to 16 weeks after the start). The changes from baseline n the following three subscales will be compared between groups: Emotional Exhaustion (range: 0-54) Depersonalization (range: 0-30) Personal Accomplishment (range: 0-48) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary outcomes of this study are changes in the percentage of residents exhibiting burnout symptoms (burnout rate) based on the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and changes in scores on the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS). changes in the percentage of burnout rate based on MBI Burnout will be defined according to the following criteria based on MBI subscale scores. Emotional Exhaustion (EE), a score of 27 or higher,Depersonalization (DP), a score of 10 or higher,Personal Accomplishment (PA), a score of 33 or lower changes in scores on the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS). We will evaluate the effects of the intervention by performing analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) between groups (intervention group vs. control group) using the scores of BJSQ, CES-D, and AIS immediately before the psychiatric rotation as covariates and the scores at the end of the rotation as dependent variables. | — |
