Burnout in doctorally prepared nurse faculty.
This correlational study examined burnout in doctorally prepared nurse faculty and its relationships to management style, collegial support, and workload. The Matthews Burnout Scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory were used to measure burnout of 400 doctorally prepared American Nurses Association (ANA) members employed as faculty in schools of nursing. Analysis of 236 (59%) returns revealed that 39% of the faculty experienced moderate to high levels of burnout. Significant negative relationships (p < .05) were found between burnout and participative management, presence of collegial support, and time spent in research and in clinical practice. Multiple regression indicated that management style was the strongest predictor of burnout, with collegial support the second predictor.
