“…The present study was conducted among vocational students in their late teens and early twenties at a Regional Training Centre, which may offer an explanation of the low levels of burn-out symptoms among teachers as perceived by their students in comparison with some other studies that derived their results from self-report questionnaires (Byrne, 1991;Evers et al, 2001Evers et al, , 2002.…”

“…Emmer & Hickman, 1991). In a study on burnout among carertakers for the elderly (Evers, Tomic, & Brouwers, 2001) evidence was found that aggressive clients' behavior contributed to the occurrence of burnout symptoms among staff working with the elderly (cf.

The present study examined the degree of burnout among Dutch reformed pastors and aspects that may be conducive to the onset of burnout. They were asked to report how difficult they found their tasks and what options they had to alleviate the pressure of work they experienced. Compared with other human service professionals the results show that pastors have relatively high scores on emotional exhaustion and relatively low scores on depersonalization. Pastors have relatively low scores on personal accomplishment. Those who say they are experiencing severe pressure of work appear to have high scores on the three burnout dimensions. Role ambiguity and lack of social support appear to intensify reported feelings of burnout. This article concludes by discussing some of the pastor's own suggestions as to how to relieve work pressure.

“…There are clearer discourses, structures and dedicated research regarding violence and aggression within health care services (Unite, 2007;Evers, Tomic & Brouwers, 2001;McKenna, Poole, Smith, Coverdale & Gale, 2003;National Health Service Security Management Services, 2005). Attempts to bring clarity to ISB are in their infancy ) and appear to be complicated by wider and ambiguous social and political contexts regarding what is sexually inappropriate.…”

Research assessing the impact of inappropriate sexual behaviour (ISB) on staff working in dementia care is circumscribed, yet studies from comparable settings indicate that ISB appears uniquely challenging, particularly to personal and cultural values. This study explored staff experiences of ISB exhibited by older adults with a dementia. Fourteen staff working within an in-patient setting were interviewed. Participants’ experiences of ISB appeared underpinned by complex social and psychological processes. Shock, embarrassment and incomprehension were prominent when ISB was initially encountered. Knowledge of dementia, familiarity with patients and social norms were important in contextualising ISB and staff often minimised its impact by construing a lack of capacity. Feelings about ISB appeared equivocal and findings suggest that the effect of ISB should be routinely considered in preparing staff who work within dementia care.
