Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The objective of the current study was to examine the mediating role of alexithymia and emotion regulation in the prediction of job exhaustion among the treatment staff of Karaj city government hospitals, as determined by ego strength. The current research was descriptive of the correlation type. The research’s statistical population comprised all active medical personnel employed by Karaj public hospitals during the spring of 2024. 250 people (97 men and 153 women) were selected as a sample using the available sampling method. The tools of the current research included Ego Strength Scale (ESS), Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), Toronto alexithymia Scale (TAS) and Maslach Job Burnout Questionnaire (MBI). The structural equation analysis method was employed to analyze the collected data in SPSS version 25 and Mplus version 8.3. The obtained findings indicated that job burnout was substantially and negatively predicted by Ego Strength. Ego Strength had a direct and significant effect on emotion regulation and alexithymia, and emotion regulation and alexithymia also had a direct and significant effect on job burnout. The indirect path analysis results indicated that the relationship between ego strength and job burnout is substantially mediated by emotion regulation and alexithymia. Considering the stressful environment of hospitals and considering the findings of the research, it is possible to design and implement educational and intervention programs based on ego strength with more emphasis on emotional dimensions, including emotion regulation and alexithymia, in order to reduce the burnout of medical staff.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
