    Notes: A model of burnout and life satisfaction amongst nurses This study, among 109 German nurses, tested a theoretically derived model of burnout and overall life satisfaction. The model discriminates between two conceptually different categories of working conditions, namely job demands and job resources. It was hypothesized that: (1) job demands, such as demanding contacts with patients and time pressure, are most predictive of exhaustion; (2) job resources, such as (poor) rewards and (lack of) participation in decision making, are most predictive of disengagement from work; and (3) job demands and job resources have an indirect impact on nurses’ life satisfaction, through the experience of burnout (i.e., exhaustion and disengagement). A model including each of these relationships was tested simultaneously with structural equations modelling. Results confirm the strong effects of job demands and job resources on exhaustion and disengagement respectively, and the mediating role of burnout between the working conditions and life satisfaction. These findings contribute to existing knowledge about antecedents and consequences of occupational burnout, and provide guidelines for interventions aimed at preventing or reducing burnout among nurses.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wurde eine Untersuchung über die Effizienz bei einer industriellen optischen Kontrollaufgabe durchgeführt. Die Aufgabe der untersuchten Arbeiterinnen bestand in der Kontrolle von Münzrohlingen, die auf einem Flie\band vor den Frauen vorbeizogen. Zusätzlich wurden die an den Arbeitsplätzen gegebenen Arbeitsbedingungen sowie einige Merkmale der beschäftigten Mitarbeiterinnen untersucht und eine Serie von Zeitstudien durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigten eine relativ geringe Effektivität der Kontrolle, die auf die hohe Menge der zu verarbeitenden Informationen, das Entlohnungssystem und verschiedene leistungsbegrenzende Arbeitsbedingungen, wie die Beleuchtung, das Anlernverfahren, die Organisation des Arbeitsablaufes und die unzureichende Sehschärfe der beschäftigten Arbeiterinnen zurückgeführt wird. Beziehungen zwischen den untersuchten Arbeitsplätzen und typischen experimentellen Vigilanzuntersuchungen werden diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary A study was conducted on the efficiency of workers in an industrial inspection task. The task consisted of the inspection of coins passing in front of the workers on a conveyor belt. In addition to the efficiency analysis, working conditions and personal factors of the workers were studied and a series of time studies was conducted. Results showed a relative low level of efficiency which is attributed to the high amount of information to be processed, system of payment, and several limiting working conditions, e.g. illumination, training process, organization of rest pauses and inadequate vision of the workers. The relationships between the tasks studied and typical experimental vigilance studies are discussed.
