ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to analyze the relation between burnout syndrome and personal resources of self-control and social support of professionals who assist familial violence in institutions in the city of Monterrey, Nuevo León and its metropolitan area. The design used was multivariable, “ex post facto” type, cross-sectional, structural equations modeling. The sample was not probabilistic, composed by 161 professionals of familial violence assistance in different representative institutions aiding in familial violence problem. The results showed an explanatory model through structural equation modeling where a significant relation among self-control loss (β = 0.60, p = 0.002); social support loss (β = -0.38, p = 0.049), and self-control gain (β = -0.47, p = 0.022) and emotional burnout was established.
