Domestic violence and sexual assault advocates, unlike other social service workers, experience only moderate burnout. The present study extends burnout research, exploring simultaneous effects of job demands and adaptation factors as they relate to burnout in the advocacy population. The authors identify the good soldiering phenomenon in which advocates adapt to work that is worthwhile, but risky, demanding, and resource poor. Good soldiering is related to, but distinct from, a "calling" because it links to the position, not simply intrinsic motivation. The authors find that though job demands significantly increase burnout, advocates who identify with good soldiering experience significantly lower levels of burnout.
家暴和性侵犯问题的倡导者与其他社会服务工作者不同，他们的职业倦怠程度适中。本研究扩展了职业倦怠研究，探讨了工作需求和适应因素的同时影响，以及它们与倡导人群职业倦怠的关系。作者发现了“好士兵”现象，即倡导者适应有价值但有风险、要求高且资源匮乏的工作。“好士兵”与“使命感”有关，但又有所不同，因为它与职位有关，而不仅仅与内在动机有关。作者发现，尽管工作需求显著增加了职业倦怠，但认同“好士兵”的倡导者的职业倦怠程度显著较低。
