This study examines the responses of 253 recently ordained stipendiary Anglican curates in the Church of England to the Francis Burnout Inventory during their second year in ministry. The data confirm the internal consistency reliability among recently ordained clergy of the scales proposed by this measure: Scale of Emotional Exhaustion in Ministry, and Satisfaction in Ministry Scale. While positive affect is high, with 90% agreeing with the item that they gain a lot of satisfaction from fulfilling their ministry roles, negative affect is also uncomfortably high, with 35% agreeing with the item that they feel drained by fulfilling their ministry roles. It is those ordained under the age of forty who experienced the highest levels of emotional exhaustion.
本研究调查了253名最近在英国国教会被任命为有薪圣公会副牧师的人在其任职第二年对弗朗西斯职业倦怠量表的反应。数据证实了该测量方法所提出的量表在最近被任命的神职人员中的内部一致性可靠性：神职工作中的情感耗竭量表和神职工作满意度量表。虽然积极情绪较高，90%的人同意他们从履行神职角色中获得很多满足感，但消极情绪也高得令人不安，35%的人同意他们觉得履行神职角色让自己精疲力竭。正是那些40岁以下被任命的人经历了最高水平的情感耗竭。
