Abstract

The postmodern era poses special challenge for police: the transition from the archetypal role of a warrior to the role of a servant.Purpose.To determine the level of Ukrainian police officers` burnout and effect of the gender, tenure and primary workplace (field work or office service) on it.The study involved police officers of the National Police of Ukraine (age -20-45 years, n = 129 -men, n = 55 -women).The questionnaire was applied.The results of the questionnaire were processed by mathematical statistics methods.53.8% and 30.4% of the officers revealed high and average levels of emotional exhaustion respectively.Only 15.8% officers revealed low level of depersonalization (≤6 points) a reduction in their personal accomplishment (≥39 points).The correlation analysis was performed by the Kendall rank correlation coefficient.The study did not reveal a statistically significant relationship between burnout and gender.However, a slight negative correlation of tenure and burnout was revealed.This requires further research of young officers, in particular, their job expectations.The primary workplace is identified as a significant predictor of emotional exhaustion (τ Kendall=0.192),depersonalization (τ-Kendall=0.176)and aggregated global measure of burnout (τ-Kendall=0.179).The revealed condition and structure of occupational burnout of Ukrainian police officers testify to its risk level and the necessity of its constant monitoring and psychological support.The implications and limitations of research and practice are discussed.

  • Primary workplace (field and office service work) contributes to increased exhaustion and depersonalisation.

    “In one study, a variable called primary workplace which encompassed field and office service work contributed to increased exhaustion and depersonalisation (Valieiev et al., 2019).”

    From Psychosocial risk and protective factors associated with burnout in police officers: A systematic review (2023) · cites this paper as Valieiev et al., 2019

    The Results report significant correlations between primary workplace (field work or office service) and both emotional exhaustion and depersonalization; the Conclusions likewise call them associations. The claim's wording, “contributed to increased,” implies a causal effect that the reported correlations do not establish. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • Job length has no association with burnout.

    “Three studies found that job length had no association with burnout (Fyhn et al., 2016; Valieiev et al., 2019; Yang et al., 2019).”

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.
