Abstract

The present work identifies the prevalence of burnout syndrome and its three dimensions (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal fulfillment) and the relationship with psychoticism, in physicians and nurses of four health institutions, located in the south of the province of Santa Elena, during 2016 - 2017. The methodology used is exploratory, quantitative and transactional. A sociodemographic and work variables questionnaire, Maslach's burnout inventory, multidimensional coping styles assessment scale, and the revised Eysenck personality questionnaire were used to assess different aspects that affect the occurrence of burnout cases in the population selected for research. These instruments were applied to a total of 39 doctors and nurses from the four selected institutions. The results showed that there is only one case of Burnout, although the presence of new cases in the future is not ruled out, due to the high scores obtained in the dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal fulfillment in this group of professionals in the context of the health.
