A Review and an Integration of Research on Job Burnout

TLDR
In this article, the authors present a conceptual framework for understanding the dynamics of burnout, including determinants of and interrelationships among the three burnout components, including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished personal accomplishment.
Abstract
Burnout is a unique type of stress syndrome, characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished personal accomplishment. Although burnout has been shown to be potentially very costly in the helping professions, such as nursing, education, and social work, little work has been done thus far to establish its generalizability to industry. This article reviews the literature on burnout and provides a conceptual framework designed to improve the understanding of burnout. Propositions are presented that are aimed at clarifying the dynamics of burnout, including determinants of and interrelationships among the three burnout components.

Using the job demands-resources model to predict burnout and performance

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the job demands-resources model to examine the relationship between job characteristics, burnout, and (other-ratings of) performance, and found that job demands (e.g., work pressure and emotional demands) would be the most important antecedents of the exhaustion component of burnout.

Convergent and discriminant validation by the multitrait-multimethod matrix.

TL;DR: This transmutability of the validation matrix argues for the comparisons within the heteromethod block as the most generally relevant validation data, and illustrates the potential interchangeability of trait and method components.
