Identifier	Thesis 2160
Author	Martin, Eric J., 1979-
Title	An exploration of burnout in non-profit criminal justice practitioners
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2011; *
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	No known studies have been conducted to examine the burnout levels of non-profit practitioners. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the burnout levels of non-profit practitioners who work with criminal justice clients. The main instrument that was utilized for this study was the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Due to numerous researchers such as (Cordes & Dougherty, 1993) suggesting that the Personal Accomplishments subscale (PA) of the MBI was not a strong predictor of burnout, only the Emotional Exhaustion (EE) and the Depersonalization (Dp) subscales were used for this study. A demographics questionnaire was also utilized to determine if there were any correlations between demographic variables and the burnout subscales. The sample consisted of 90 practitioners who work in various non-profit agencies such as Alternative Incarceration Centers (AICs) throughout the state. The results from the study indicated that supervisory support was the strongest predictor of burnout. Significant negative correlations were found between Emotional Exhaustion and the support of supervisors, co-workers and support from close personal relationships. Supervisory support was also negatively correlated with Depersonalization. Age was negatively correlated with both Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization scores. Overall social support had the biggest effect on Emotional Exhaustion. These findings are important because it gives non-profit organizations a direction of how to reduce burnout levels by including the results found in this study and implementing burnout reduction strategies.
