Journal Title: Acta Facultatis Medicae Naissensis - Year 2017, Vol 34, Issue 4
Abstract
The present study was conducted to investigate the relationship between psychological capital (PsyCap) and academic burnout in medical students in Iran. The relationship between PsyCap and academic burnout is not, however, clearly investigated in the clinical education. This analytical study was conducted on 172 medical students of a major medical university in Iran, selected through randomized stratified sampling. A demographic section together with PCQ-24 and Academic Burnout Inventory were used for data collection. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS software. Mean academic burnout and PsyCap values were 45.79 and 95.70, respectively. A negative significant correlation were observed between them (r = 0.963, p < 0.001). Stepwise linear regression suggested the predictability of PsyCap by the components of academic burnout (p < 0.001). The results suggested a relationship between students’ academic burnout and their PsyCap; in other words, their academic burnout can be controlled by enhancing their PsyCap. This will bear implications for educationists. - - - Ova studija je sprovedena kako bi se utvrdio odnos između psihološkog kapitala (PsyCap-eng.) i sindroma izgaranja kod studenata medicine u Iranu. Međutim, odnos između PsyCap i sindroma izgaranja u kliničkom obrazovanju još uvek nije dovoljno ispitan. Analitička studija je uključila 172 studenta glavnog medicinskog univerziteta u Iranu, koji su odabrani metodom randomizovanog stratifikovanog uzorkovanja. Za prikupljanje podataka korišćen je demografski presek sa PCQ-24 kao i skala za procenu sindroma izgaranja. Statistička analiza je urađena u SPSS programu. Srednje vrednosti za sindrom izgaranja i psihološki kapital bile su 45,79 i 95,70. Između ovih vrednosti uočena je značajna negativna korelacija (r = 0,963, p < 0,001). Višestepena linearna regresiona analiza je ukazala na predvidljivost PsyCap na osnovu komponenti sindroma izgaranja (p < 0,001). Rezultati ukazuju na odnos između sindroma izgaranja i psihološkog kapitala, odnosno sindrom izgaranja se može kontrolisati uvećanjem psihološkog kapitala. Ovi zaključci će biti od značaja za ljude u obrazovanju.
