Abstract

Relationship between Burnout Syndrome and Internet Addiction, and the Risk Factors in Healthcare Employees Objective: We aimed to evaluate the level of internet use and burnout syndrome among the physicians, nurses, and other employees working at a university hospital, to demonstrate the possible relationships between these two factors, and to define the relationships between both conditions and sociodemographic variables.Methods: The population of this study was selected by simple random sampling method and sample size was calculated considering a confidence interval of and an error rate of 0.05. A self-structured questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and Internet Addiction Scale (IAS) were completed. Results: While emotional exhaustion and desensitization were significantly higher among surgical medicine physicians, emotional exhaustion levels were significantly lower among the participants who stated that their job selection was intentional. When the correlations between participants’ age or their job experience and the scales were assessed, a significant negative correlation was found with internet addiction. There was a significant correlation between burnout sub-dimensions and internet addiction.Conclusions: This study suggests that factors such as method of preferring jobs, workload, and regular sleep, having hobbies, marriage and having children have significant effects on burnout and internet addiction.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı bir üniversite hastanesinde görev yapan hekimler, hemşireler ve diğer çalışanlar arasında tükenmişlik düzeylerini ve internet kullanım düzeylerini saptayarak bu iki faktör arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığını belirlemek, bu iki durumun sosyodemografik değişkenlerle arasındaki ilişkilerini tanımlamaktır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmanın örneklemi basit rastgele örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiş olup örneklem hacmi güven aralığı ve hata payı 0.05 kabul edilerek hesaplandı.Katılımcılara yarı yapılandırılmış bir anket formu, Maslach Tükenmişlik Ölçeği ve İnternet Bağımlılığı Ölçeği uygulandı.Bulgular: Duygusal tükenme ve duyarsızlaşma cerrahi branş hekimlerinde anlamlı bir şekilde daha yüksek bulunurken duygusal tükenme kendi isteğiyle meslek seçimi yapanlarda anlamlı bir şekilde düşük bulundu. Katılımcıların yaşı ya da iş deneyimi ve ölçekler arasındaki korelasyonlar değerlendirildiğinde, internet bağımlılığı ile anlamlı negatif korelasyon bulundu. Tükenmişlik alt boyutları ile internet bağımlılığı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki vardı.Sonuç: Bu çalışma meslek seçme yöntemi, iş yükü ve düzenli uyku, hobi, evlilik ve çocuk sahibi olma gibi faktörlerin tükenmişlik ve internet bağımlılığı üzerinde anlamlı etkilerinin olduğunu göstermektedir.
