| Abstract [eng] |
The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between burnout, impostor phenomenon, and job characteristics in a sample of young professionals. The participants were young specialists from various professional fields selected using convenience and snowball sampling methods. The study employed the Burnout Assessment Tool (Schaufeli ir kt., 2019), the Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (Clance, 1985), and the Work Design Questionnaire (Morgeson ir Humphrey, 2006). A quantitative correlational research design was applied. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, group comparison analyses, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The results revealed that a stronger impostor phenomenon was associated with higher levels of burnout. Additionally, individuals with less work experience and those working longer hours demonstrated higher burnout indicators. Job characteristics were significantly related to both burnout and impostor phenomenon. Regression analysis showed that impostor phenomenon and certain job characteristics were significant predictors of burnout. The findings contribute to a better understanding of burnout and related psychological factors in the context of young professionals and may be useful for developing employee well-being interventions within organizations. |
