(1) Nurses in a pre-burnout state were often married, in managerial positions, working at large hospitals, and were likely to take challenging, seeking help, and diversion, but were unlikely to take resignation, taking it out on others, or seeking treatment as stress-coping styles. (2) Doctors in a pre-burnout state were unlikely to show challenging, a task-orientated coping style, and were likely to show taking it out on others, emotion-orientated coping. (3) This survey revealed that the stress-coping style is a major factor of burnout in nurses and doctors. The contents of task-orientated coping differed between nurses and doctors. Taking it out on others, emotion-orientated coping, was observed in common.}, pages = {33--42}, title = {Burnout of Nurses and Doctors in Niigata Prefecture, Japan}, volume = {56}, year = {2008} }
