The Effect of Personality Traits and Burnout Levels in Trinity School of Medicine Students
Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2019, Vol 33, Issue 33
Abstract
Overwhelming negative stress can lead to burnout in medical students, which can cause a decrease in academic performance. Several factors can play a role, such as personality, work/school environment, and home life. Personal burnout levels of Trinity School of Medicine (TSOM) students were investigated in relation to personality traits and counterparts. A self-administered survey regarding personal burnout levels was assessed via the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI), and the personality traits and counterparts were assessed via the personality test from 16Personalities.com. The survey was sent to 207 TSOM students in terms one through five. Pre-med students were not assessed. Seventy-four responses were obtained, but five were excluded as the survey was not filled out appropriately, yielding a 33.33% response rate. Chi-squared revealed a significant result regarding the turbulent counterpart and in marital status. Turbulent individuals were more likely to be in burnout levels 3 and 4. Those that were in a relationship or married were less likely to be in burnout levels 3 and 4. The former suggests that those with the turbulent counterpart are more likely to develop burnout and should take preventative measures. The latter suggests that those with social support are less likely to develop burnout.
