Associations between emotional intelligence and doctor burnout, job satisfaction and patient satisfaction
Open accessAbstract
Medical Education 2011: 45 : 835–842 CONTEXT The occupational health literature has long been dominated by stress‐related topics. A more contemporary perspective suggests using a positive approach in the form of a health model focused on what is right with people, such as feelings of well‐being and satisfaction. OBJECTIVES Using a positive perspective and multi‐source data collection, this study investigated the inter‐relationships among emotional intelligence (EI), patient satisfaction, doctor burnout and job satisfaction. METHODS In this observational study, 110 internists and 2872 out‐patients were surveyed in face‐to‐face interviews. RESULTS Higher self‐rated EI was significantly associated with less burnout (p < 0.001) and higher job satisfaction (p < 0.001). Higher patient satisfaction was correlated with less burnout (p < 0.01). Less burnout was found to be associated with higher job satisfaction (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study identified EI as a factor in understanding doctors’ work‐related issues. Given the multi‐dimensional nature of EI, refinement of the definition of EI and the construct validity of EI as rated by others require further examination.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
