The aims of this study were to describe gender differences in patients with burnout and compare these patients with a general population with respect to physical, psychosocial and work variables.
Data were collected from a total of 136 patients (96 women and 40 men, 41.6 +/- 7.4 years), diagnosed with stress-related disease and burnout at the Stress Clinic, University Hospital of Umeå. Data on burnout, physical, psychosocial and work characteristics were compared with similar data from a geographical and age-matched population based survey, the 2004 Northern Sweden MONICA study. The survey sample included a total of 573 participants (283 women and 290 men, 40.7 +/- 8.5 years).
Women with burnout reported a higher rate of impaired awakening, lower job control, greater proportion of unpaid work and worked to a greater extent "with people" compared to men. Men with burnout had a more restricted social network and reported working more overtime than women. Patients with burnout reported a higher rate of unemployment, a more restricted social network and higher work demands compared to a general population. Women with burnout reported less emotional support, a more sedentary work situation, high job strain and worked to a greater extent "with people" than women from the general population.
There are some differences in working conditions and social network between women and men with burnout. Patients with burnout differ from a general population regarding individual and social factors as well as work-related factors.
本研究旨在描述倦怠患者的性别差异，并就身体、心理社会和工作变量方面，将这些患者与普通人群进行比较。
数据收集自于乌梅奥大学医院压力诊所诊断为与压力相关疾病和倦怠的136名患者（96名女性和40名男性，年龄41.6±7.4岁）。将倦怠、身体、心理社会和工作特征的数据，与基于地理和年龄匹配人群的调查（2004年瑞典北部莫尼卡研究）中的类似数据进行比较。该调查样本共包括573名参与者（283名女性和290名男性，年龄40.7±8.5岁）。
与男性相比，患有倦怠的女性报告觉醒受损率更高、工作控制更低、无薪工作比例更大且在更大程度上“与人共事”。患有倦怠的男性社交网络更受限，且报告加班比女性更多。与普通人群相比，患有倦怠的患者报告失业率更高、社交网络更受限且工作要求更高。与普通人群中的女性相比，患有倦怠的女性报告获得的情感支持更少、工作时久坐不动的情况更多、工作压力大且在更大程度上“与人共事”。
患有倦怠的男性和女性在工作条件和社交网络方面存在一些差异。患有倦怠的患者在个人和社会因素以及与工作相关的因素方面与普通人群不同。
