Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Behavioral Sciences is currently publishing manuscripts for a Special Issue on burnout and risk factors in healthcare professionals. This Special Issue will include articles about healthcare professionals’ burnout and all the possible variables related with the syndrome. Burnout syndrome is a significant problem in modern working environments, and its prevalence has increased substantially over the past decade in healthcare professionals. There are many variables that can affect the risk of burnout development in healthcare professionals. To avoid the adverse effects of healthcare professionals´ burnout, it is important to clarify the role that different variables play in the development of burnout syndrome in healthcare professionals. We welcome studies using quantitative, qualitative methods or mixed methods with primary or secondary data. All articles are subject to peer review. For further information, please contact Jose L. Gómez-Urquiza, Ph.D. ([email protected]).
Prof. Dr. Jose L. Gómez-Urquiza
