The Extent That Self-Compassion and Well-Being Predict Burnout in Online Clinical Psychology PhD Students
Tiffany Thompson
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Walden University
Online clinical psychology doctoral students simultaneously experience stressful environments while managing school and life. These stressful experiences can lead to burnout. The concepts of self-compassion and well-being are intertwined with success and burnout. Previous research has indicated that burnout is likely to occur; however, a lack of research has identified specific factors that collectively predict burnout in online clinical psychology doctoral students. Thus, a gap in the current literature regarding burnout using these variables and within clinical psychology PhD students remains to be addressed. This quantitative study investigated the impact of self-compassion and well-being on burnout levels among online clinical psychology doctoral students. The constructivist self-developmental theory aligned with this study. Data were collected from 65 clinical doctoral psychology students using Maslach's Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey, Self-Compassion Scale Short Form, and Well-Being Scale. A simple linear regression and multiple regression analysis were used to identify if there was a significant relationship between self-compassion and well-being on the levels of burnout. A significant relationship was found between well-being but not self-compassion on the levels of burnout, implying the need to understand the importance of acknowledging burnout in online clinical psychology PhD students and the need for more well-being to lead to a positive social change within psychology.
