摘要:Burnout,the condition that arises when prolonged stress causes energy to turn to exhaustion,involvement to turn to cynicism,and efficacy to become a lack of accomplishment,is a pervasive phenomenon in organizations.Although burnout was originally studied in human service profession,the phenomenon has been more recently explored in other fields,including the field of information technology.Research has shown that information technology (IT) workers are succumbing to make problems,which may not be surprising given recent trends in the IT industry.In the period from 2001 through 2004,workers in the IT industry experienced substantial turmoil,as over 500,000 IT workers lost their jobs due in part to the “dot–com bubble” burst,organizational cost-cutting,shrinking budgets,a struggling economy,and increased pressure to satisfy shareholders each quarter.The seriousness of the burnout phenomenon is well documented and has been shown to have several serious negative consequences,including job dissatisfaction and turnover,deterioration of relationships,physical and mental illness,and decreased work performance among others.The current IT environment and the suggested prevalence of burnout of IT workers indicate the necessity of a study to determine the factors that predict the phenomenon in these workers,thus enabling practitioners and researchers to focus on detection and prevention.
