| Abstract: | Child protective service (CPS) workers experience working conditions that lead to burn out. Although theorists describe burnout as a phenomenon that develops over time, few studies have taken a longitudinal approach to describe its course. To test the hypotheses that (a) burnout remains the same across time, and that (b) environmental conditions are related to change in burnout, 64 CPS workers were followed over an average 18-month period. All scales of the Maslach Burnout Inventory showed significantly increased burnout. |
