“…This result is consistent with previous findings. Possible explanations include that women are more likely to experience work–personal conflict than men due to imbalances in caregiving duties (Matlin, 2011) and in household tasks (Byron, 2005). Policies for longer maternity leave and for elderly care leave, combined with available and affordable child-care, may mitigate some work–family conflict (Matlin, 2011).…”

Templeton and colleagues (2019) expand that work–life integration is not solely responsible for increased burnout in females, rather gender bias, discrimination, and sexual harassment must also be considered.…”

Burnout is a process that can lead to lower quality patient care and poorer treatment outcomes. Burnout is also prevalent among mental health clinicians. Accurate assessment of the prevalence of graduate student burnout, in comparison to licensed clinician burnout, should aid in understanding development of burnout and provide implications for training and for early intervention. Therefore, this study used the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory to compare three types of burnout, workplace (WB), personal (PB), and client (CB) between graduate-level clinicians (n = 88) and licensed clinicians (n = 119) to understand if one group is more at risk for burnout. No significant differences were found between graduate-level clinicians and licensed clinicians on PB, WB, or CB. All clinicians are much more at risk for PB than any other type of burnout, with 48.9% of graduate students reporting PB and 39.5% of clinicians reporting PB. Further, female clinicians were found to be at a higher risk for PB than male clinicians. These results emphasize a need to be proactive in identifying and mitigating burnout, emphasizing PB. With graduate students receiving regular supervision, assessment within programs may assist with graduate-level clinicians building healthier habits in clinical work, academic work, and personal life activities that mitigate burnout. The American Psychological Association marks the promotion of self-care, and subsequent mitigation of burnout, a competency training issue, as well as an ethical issue. Considering its prevalence and its impact, clinician burnout research may facilitate better treatment outcomes, as well as better clinician wellbeing.

“…Prior research shows that women are often perceived to be more vulnerable to work stressors than men (Matlin, 2011), and authors have speculated that burnout is more common among women (Maslach et al. , 2001).…”

PurposeConstruction managers face many work-related stressors induced by unrealistic schedule expectations, tight budgets, and long hours. Over time, these stressors can result in both mental and physical exhaustion, a condition referred to as burnout. Early-career managers are a key worker demographic, as they represent the near-term future of the construction industry, yet they have a high risk for burnout. The purpose of this study is to explore the prevalence of burnout in new construction managers, and to identify which individual or work-related factors are associated with feelings of burnout.Design/methodology/approachUsing the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey (MBI-GS), data from 146 early-career professionals (less than 10 years of experience) with construction management degrees in the USA were collected and analyzed using correlational and best subset regression techniques.FindingsThe results show that the early-career demographic in the USA experiences both the Emotional Exhaustion and Cynicism dimensions of burnout at comparable levels to prior studies with more mid-to-late career respondents. However, the Professional Efficacy dimension was significantly higher in early-career professionals than any other sample. No individual factors, such as gender, marital status, or number of children, were predictive of any dimension of burnout. Instead, only work-related factors including co-worker friendliness, opportunities for personal development and promotion, and the ability to control the work pacing were strongly associated with one or more dimensions of burnout.Originality/valueThis study is the first to explore burnout in the key early-career demographic for construction managers in the United States construction industry. This work provides evidence that organizational policies and culture have a greater efficacy in alleviating burnout in this demographic, when compared to the work–life balance of the individual.

“…In the teaching domain, Psychology of Women Quarterly published five papers on teaching the psychology of women just 7 years after Division 35 (Psychology of Women) was formed (Johnson, 1982), and a full-day teaching workshop was offered from 1987 to 1997 before each APA convention. These activities suggest that the teaching of the psychology of women was an activist priority in Division 35 by the late 1980s and 1990s and continues today in the Psychology of Women Quarterly (Matlin, 2011).…”

Teaching the psychology of men is a critical area for psychology but underdeveloped as a pedagogical discipline. The goal of this special section is to make a “call to action” to increase the number of courses taught in the psychology of men. The history and current status of teaching the psychology of men are discussed and the slow evolution of the discipline over the last 2 decades is analyzed. Five rationales are presented explaining why teaching the psychology of men is important. How the teaching the psychology of men relates to multiculturalism and social justice are discussed, and the personal and political aspects of this pedagogy are described as important classroom issues. Alliances with other specialties in psychology are recommended to further develop the psychology of men curriculum and increase the number of courses taught. The pragmatics of teaching the psychology of men is defined by 2 teaching paradigms that demonstrate the complexity when preparing and implementing courses. The 4 manuscripts and the 2 reactors’ critiques of the special section are described. Future discussion about teaching the psychology of men is recommended with the hope that more courses are developed nationally and internationally.
