The following article highlights a three-year follow-up assessment for a study investigating the roles of coping strategies, job stress, and personality traits in burnout reduction after a counseling intervention for distressed physicians. With a high response rate, the assessment showed that reduced emotional exhaustion, job stress, and emotion-focused coping strategies were sustained at 1-year and 3-years. More specifically, changes in emotion-focused coping and job stress preceded those in emotional exhaustion. The authors posit, as a consequence, coping strategies and job stress could be important foci in intervention programs that aim to reduce or prevent burnout in help-seeking physicians.
