Abstract

Aim

The present study aimed to evaluate the contribution of personality, empathy, and the perception of instructor's caring in predicting burnout in nursing students.

Background

Burnout is alarmingly prevalent and rising among nursing students. Furthering our understanding of individual and clinical environmental antecedents of burnout is crucial to shield nursing students' well-being during their training.

Methods

In a cross-sectional study design, the Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI), the Brief version of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (BIRI), the Nursing Students' Perception of Instructor Caring (NSPIC), and the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) were administered to 361 (83.9 % females) Italian nursing students between July and December 2021. t-Tests, analyses of variance, Pearson's correlations, and hierarchical regressions were performed to examine the association of CBI with socio-demographics, TIPI, BIRI, and NSPIC.

Results

Being female and having a low household income were predictors of Personal Burnout and Work-related Burnout. Personal Burnout was positively associated with TIPI-Neuroticism and BIRI-Personal Distress. Work-related Burnout was positively associated with BIRI-Personal Distress and NSPIC-Control, and negatively associated TIPI-Openness to Experience, NSPIC-Support, NSPIC-Confidence. Client-related Burnout was negatively associated with TIPI-Agreeableness, NSPIC-Support, NSPIC-Confidence. Beyond the effect of socio-demographics, TIPI, and BIRI, NSPIC subscales significantly contributed to the explained variance in CBI scores.

Conclusions

Sex, household income, personality, and empathy should be considered when designing interventions to decrease burnout in nursing students. Promoting caring relationships between clinical instructors and their pupils may contribute to reduce nursing students' burnout.

人格、同理心和带教老师的关怀感对护理专业学生职业倦怠的影响：横断面研究

背景职业倦怠在护理专业学生中非常普遍，且呈上升趋势。进一步了解职业倦怠的个体和临床环境前因对于保护护生在培训期间的身心健康至关重要。方法采用横断面研究设计，对 361 名意大利护生（83.t检验、方差分析、Pearson相关性和分层回归检验了CBI与社会人口统计学、TIPI、BIRI和NSPIC的关系。个人职业倦怠与神经质 TIPI 和个人压力 BIRI 呈正相关。工作相关倦怠与 BIRI-个人压力和 NSPIC-控制力呈正相关，与 TIPI-体验开放性、NSPIC-支持和 NSPIC-自信呈负相关。与客户相关的职业倦怠与 TIPI--同意度、NSPIC--支持度、NSPIC--自信度呈负相关。除了社会人口统计学、TIPI 和 BIRI 的影响外，NSPIC 子量表对 CBI 分数的解释方差也有显著贡献。结论在设计干预措施以降低护理学生的职业倦怠时，应考虑性别、家庭收入、个性和移情能力。促进临床带教老师与学生之间的关爱关系可能有助于减少护生的职业倦怠。
