Stress, satisfaction and burnout amongst <scp>A</scp>ustralian and <scp>N</scp>ew <scp>Z</scp>ealand radiation oncologists

Abstract

This first study of stress, satisfaction and burnout among radiation oncologists in Australia and New Zealand had a reasonable response rate and identified specific areas of stress and satisfaction. Nearly half of the respondents scored highly in one burnout subscale. Some of the stress and satisfaction subscales correlated with certain aspects of burnout. Further research will be undertaken to refine the stress and satisfaction parameters and address burnout interventions.
