Identifying overlaps with and differences to the clinical picture of depression as reflected in media coverage of burnout.
Qualitative content analysis of three national daily newspapers from the years 2016 and 2017.
Depictions of burnout symptoms are often related to the leading symptoms of depression. Differences become visible in the underlying causes and therapeutic measures described. Burnout is rarely depicted in the context of professional treatment recommendations.
In coverage, the phenomenon of burnout seems more approachable than depression due to its work-relatedness, the figurative quality of the term, and numerous disclosures by affected celebrities. We discuss that the destigmatizing potential of the term burnout may come at the expense of people with severe depression, and people outside the working context. Additionally, lower recommendation of professional treatment for burnout may delay help-seeking.
识别倦怠在媒体报道中与抑郁症临床表现的重叠之处及差异。
对2016年和2017年的三份全国性日报进行定性内容分析。
倦怠症状的描述通常与抑郁症的主要症状相关。在所述的潜在原因和治疗措施方面差异明显。倦怠在专业治疗建议的背景下很少被描述。
在报道中，由于倦怠与工作的相关性、该术语的形象性以及受影响名人的大量披露，倦怠现象似乎比抑郁症更容易理解。我们讨论了倦怠这一术语的去污名化潜力可能是以严重抑郁症患者和工作环境之外的人为代价的。此外，对倦怠专业治疗的推荐较少可能会延迟求助行为。
