dc.description.abstractAbstract: The COVID-19 pandemic places unique challenges to medical rescuers’ occupational health. Thus, it is crucial to assess its direct and indirect impacts on key psychological outcomes and adaptation strategies. This study aims to analyse the impact of this pandemic on medical rescuers’ coping and emotion regulation strategies, and their levels of work-related psychological outcomes, such as burnout, trauma and post-traumatic growth. Additionally, it aims to analyse the contribution of coping and emotion regulation strategies, employed to manage the COVID-19 pandemic, on burnout, trauma and post-traumatic growth. A sample of 111 medical rescuers answered the Brief Cope, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Oldenburg Burnout Inventory, Impact of Event Scale-Revised and Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory. Medical rescuers resorted moderately to coping and emotion regulation strategies, since the beginning of COVID-19. They presented moderate burnout and post-traumatic growth and low trauma. Coping presented a higher weight on burnout, trauma and post-traumatic growth, than emotion regulation. Expressive suppression and dysfunctional coping predicted burnout and trauma, and problem and emotion-focused coping predicted post-traumatic growth. Dysfunctional coping mediated and, thus, exacerbated the effect of expressive suppression on burnout and on trauma. Practitioners should pay closer attention to professionals with higher burnout and trauma. Occupational practices should focus on reducing dysfunctional coping and expressive suppression and promoting problem-focused coping.pt_PT
dc.description.abstractResumo: A pandemia COVID-19 coloca desafios únicos à saúde ocupacional dos profissionais do pré-hospitalar. Assim, é fundamental avaliar o seu impacto psicológico, para sintomatologia direta ou indiretamente relacionada com a COVID-19. Pretende-se analisar o impacto desta pandemia nos outcomes psicológicos laborais, como burnout, trauma e crescimento pós-traumático, e nas estratégias de coping e regulação emocional. Pretende-se também analisar o contributo do coping e regulação emocional para estes outcomes. Uma amostra de 111 profissionais de emergência médica pré-hospitalar responderam ao Brief Cope, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Oldenburg Burnout Inventory, Impact of Event Scale-Revised e Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory. Os profissionais recorreram moderadamente a estratégias de coping e regulação emocional, desde o início da pandemia. Reportaram moderado burnout e crescimento pós-traumático e baixo trauma. O coping apresentou maior peso para os outcomes. A supressão emocional e o coping disfuncional contribuíram para o burnout e trauma, e coping problema e emoção contribuíram para o crescimento pós-traumático. O coping disfuncional mediou e exarcebou o efeito da supressão emocional no burnout e trauma. Assim, poderá ser dada especial atenção a profissionais com elevado burnout e trauma e as práticas poderão ser focadas na redução do coping disfuncional e supressão emocional, bem como na promoção do coping problema.
