Abstract:
This descriptive study was conducted with 406 physicians to evaluate fear of malpractice, burnout and spiritual well-being among physicians in Turkey. In our study, 81.5%, 11.6% and 6.9% of physicians experienced high, medium and low levels of fear of malpractice, emotional burnout, depersonalisation and personal accomplishment, respectively. However, physicians reported high levels of spiritual well-being and harmony with nature, moderate levels of transcendence and anomie. As spiritual well-being and transcendence increased, emotional burnout and depersonalisation decreased and personal accomplishment increased. In addition, as harmony with nature increased, depersonalisation decreased and personal accomplishment increased, and as anomie increased, emotional burnout and depersonalisation increased.
