This paper presents a scale to measure the professional self-esteem of physicians. It describes the scale's theoretical basis, psychometric properties, and its value for explaining physicians' well-being. Statistical analyses, conducted on data from two independent studies of physicians in Israel (ns = 214 and 122), indicate internal consistency and construct validity of the scale. Scores on professional self-esteem are associated positively with life satisfaction and work satisfaction and negatively with burnout. Scores also correlate significantly with global self-esteem and with anxiety. The professional self-esteem scale appears to be a useful tool for explaining professionals' work performance, work-related well-being, and general well-being.
本文介绍了一种用于测量医生职业自尊的量表。它描述了该量表的理论基础、心理测量特性及其对解释医生幸福感的价值。对来自以色列两项独立医生研究的数据(样本量分别为214和122)进行的统计分析表明了该量表的内部一致性和结构效度。职业自尊得分与生活满意度和工作满意度呈正相关,与职业倦怠呈负相关。得分也与总体自尊和焦虑显著相关。职业自尊量表似乎是解释专业人员工作表现、工作相关幸福感和总体幸福感的有用工具。
