摘要：A sample of 1275 health professionals in the Basque Country (Spain) were assessed (619 doctors, 430 nurses, and 208 auxiliary nurs- es). Assessment of burnout levels by means of a questionnaire (CDPE) yielded average levels of burnout. However, 28.8 percent of the sample showed high levels of emotional exhaustion. Wellbeing at work assessed by means of the Smith Work Dispositions Inventory and resulted in average levels – only 8 percent of our sample presented high levels of psychological well-being. Correlation and multiple regression analyses indicated that sociodemographic and work variables such as work overload, lack of recognition and lack of career development were significantly related to high levels of burnout and low wellbeing levels, respec- tively. As expected, psychological wellbeing and emotional hardiness were negatively related to burnout. Also, burnout signifi- cantly predicted negative consequences at various levels (physical, psychological, professional, family, and social), whereas psy- chological wellbeing, and more specifically emotional hardiness, reduced these negative consequences. The need for intervention programmes at both the organizational and personal level is emphasized. Sampling error was 2.6 percent, and confidence level was 95 percent.
