Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess how self-compassion affects the psychological well-being of radiographers at work.

Methods: An online survey was sent to radiology and radiotherapy departments in Rhône-Alpes, a region of France (from October 2021 to February 2022). The study is mixed: quantitative data, with closed questions and two validated scales, and qualitative data, with open questions aimed at assessing perceptions among radiologists as regards self-compassion.

Results: A total of 253 radiographers (mean age 32.9 years), took part in this survey. Radiographers reported a poor level of well-being and a moderate level of self-compassion. We found a link between well-being at work and self-compassion. Gender, age, number of years of experience and the desire to receive training on well-being appear to have an impact on the level of self-compassion. The perception of self-compassion by radiologists is essentially positive.

Conclusion: Particular attention should be paid to radiologists who are female, young, and with only a few years of experience. Self-compassion is a protective factor for radiologists and may help them take care of themselves to continue caring for others. Training related to self-compassion should be promoted in medical imaging departments.

放射技师在工作中的自我同情与心理健康。

目的:本研究的目的是评估自我同情如何影响放射技师在工作中的心理健康。方法:于2021年10月至2022年2月在法国Rhône-Alpes地区的放射科和放疗科进行在线调查。这项研究是混合的:定量数据，包括封闭式问题和两个有效的量表;定性数据，包括开放式问题，旨在评估放射科医生对自我同情的看法。结果:共有253名放射技师(平均年龄32.9岁)参与是次调查。放射技师报告的幸福感水平较低，自我同情程度中等。我们发现了工作幸福感和自我同情之间的联系。性别、年龄、经验年数和接受幸福培训的愿望似乎对自我同情的水平有影响。放射科医生对自我同情的看法基本上是积极的。结论:应特别注意女性、年轻和只有几年经验的放射科医生。对放射科医生来说，自我同情是一种保护因素，可以帮助他们照顾好自己，继续照顾他人。应在医学影像科室推广自我同情培训。
