“…Many other studies among lawyers, therapists, emergency professionals, and researchers showed similar symptoms of compassion fatigue, such as avoidance, persistent arousal (Figley, 1995), sadness, depression, sleeplessness, general anxiety, nightmares, intrusive thoughts (Cerney, 1995), decreased concern, physical and emotional exhaustion, job dissatisfaction, hopelessness, irritability, quick temper (Figley, 2002), and dissociation (Bride, 2004).…”

Purpose:In this study the literature of compassion fatigue in nurses was reviewed in order to analyze the trends of overall research for level of fatigue, symptoms, and factors. Methods: For this study, five databases were searched using the key words 'compassion fatigue', 'secondary traumatization', 'secondary traumatic stress', and 'vicarious traumatization'. Thirty-six papers were analyzed. Results: Most of the compassion fatigue research (86%) was conducted between 2006 and 2011 and the most frequent research approach was quantitative research with the ProQOL which was the most frequently used instrument in the studies. He research was conducted in pediatric, emergency & trauma, oncology, psychiatric, and hospice units with no consistent patterns of t compassion fatigue levels. Factors affecting compassion fatigue were personal factors such as age, education background, work-related factors such as caring for trauma patients, work hours, psychological factors such as work stress, burnout, and support/coping factors such as organizational support, and coping resources. Conclusion: Nurses' compassion fatigue varied from low to high by nursing specialties. Many factors affected the compassion fatigue of nurses. In the future there is a need for study on Korean nurses, and identification of groups at risk for compassion fatigue. Furthermore there is a need to develop management programs on compassion fatigue in nurses, stress reduction and wellbeing.

“…STS focuses on symptomatic changes (Bride, 2004;Figley, 1995) and VT focuses on changes in cognitive schemas, meaning and belief systems, although acknowledges the presence of symptomatic changes (McCann & Pearlman, 1990). STS is considered to be synonymous with CF (Figley, 1995) and it is argued that STS can also be referred to as CF (Bride, Radey & Figley, 2007;Figley, 1995Figley, , 1999.…”

“…However, from the available empirical research among mental health professionals, constructs of STS and VT are contentious since evidence to support them is limited and has been referred to as ambiguous and inconsistent (Sabin-Farrell & Turpin, 2003) 2 , mixed (Bride, 2004) and the existence of secondary traumatization phenomena has been questioned (Devilly et al, 2009;Kadambi & Ennis, 2004). In their comprehensive review, Sabin-Farrell and 1 This review will use the term STS 2 In a recent review by Elwood, Mott, Lohr and Galovski (2011) similar conclusions were drawn.…”

“…STS is not underpinned by a psychological theory, but derives from observations on symptom patterns emerging from secondary exposure to others' trauma within caring/helping relationships. STS involves three symptomatic domains, similar to PTSD, including intrusion (re-experiencing), avoidance (behavioural, cognitive or dissociative) and arousal (Bride, 2004;Figley, 1995;Wilson & Thomas 2004).…”

In previous reviews of the literature, evidence to support these constructs has been limited and inconsistent; consequently their validity has been questioned. This review seeks to reassess the evidence from recent empirical findings. The review concluded that evidence to support the constructs remains limited, but tentatively there is greater evidence to support STS in contrast to VT. Section 2: Research ReportThis study investigates the extent of exposure to trauma work among trainee clinical psychologists and its impact on well-being. The study seeks to assess which theoretical model (STS, VT, or even a non-specific model of general psychological distress) best accounts for any negative effects associated with indirect exposure to client trauma. 564 trainees participated in an online survey, which included self-report measures of general psychological distress, trauma symptoms and disrupted beliefs. Most trainees had caseloads of 1-2 trauma cases, with the most common trauma being sexual abuse.Exposure to trauma work was not related to general psychological distress or disrupted beliefs, but was a significant predictor of trauma symptoms. Level of stress of clinical work and quality of trauma training contributed to the variance in trauma symptoms. It is concluded that the study provides support for STS and lacks evidence to support VT or a non-specific model of general psychological distress.v

“…Concern with identifying displaced aging adults may have blurred the primary investigators' awareness of ''compassion fatigue'' (Bride 2004;Leon et al 1999;Roberts et al 2003) by long-term aging residents of Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas. Compassion fatigue refers to the gradual decrease in empathy or compassion over time.…”

In 2005, the National Science Foundation funded a number of projects to study the impact of Hurricane Katrina. The current article provides an overview of several research approaches used to conduct post-Katrina research. Each method had some advantages and disadvantages. The post-disaster context meant that experience from traditional survey methods often did not apply. Comparisons of advantages and disadvantages associated with each sampling method serve to
