Resumo: Stress and burnout are global epidemics that may cause negative consequences for workers and organizations. Social workers of Residential Child Care are especially at risk, due to the inherent characteristics of their work. Subsequently, this study aimed to analyse these professional’s stress, cognitive appraisal, and burnout. The sample included 92 social workers (90.2% female and 9.8% male) with ages between 25 and 64 years old (M = 38.08; SD = 7.91). The evaluation protocol included a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Stress Questionnaire for Health Professionals, the Primary and Secondary Cognitive Appraisal Scale, and the Shirom-Melamed Burnout Measure. Results indicated that 58% of professionals assumed high levels of general stress, and that physical fatigue and cognitive weariness were the burnout dimensions with higher values. The combination of sociodemographic variables, stress factors and cognitive appraisal were important to explain the burnout experience, and can contribute to design interventions directed to these professionals.

Les travailleurs du domaine social des Maisons d’accueil résidentiel sont à risque en raison des caractéristiques inhérentes à leur travail. Par la suite, cette étude visait à analyser le stress, l’évaluation cognitive et l’épuisement professionnel chez ces professionnels. L’échantillon comprenait 92 travailleurs sociaux (90,2% de femmes et 9,8% d’hommes) du nord du Portugal, âgés de 25 à 64 ans (M = 38,08 ; SD = 7,91). Le protocole d’évaluation comprenait un questionnaire sociodémographique, le Health Professional Stress Questionnaire, l’échelle d’évaluation cognitive et la Shirom-Melamed Burnout Measure. Les résultats ont indiqué que 58% des participants avaient un niveau global de stress élevé, les dimensions de la fatigue physique et de la fatigue cognitive étant les plus élevées dans l’épuisement professionnel. La combinaison de facteurs sociodémographiques, de stress et de processus d’évaluation cognitive était importante pour expliquer l’épuisement professionnel et peut contribuer à la formulation d’interventions destinées à ces professionnels.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP)Universidade do MinhoRocha, DianaGomes, A.
