A cross-sectional study was conducted in 181 midwives working in hospitals in Poland. The midwives completed professional psychological tests (CISS questionnaire, EPQ-R questionnaire, OLBI questionnaire) and a questionnaire developed for this study. Midwives participating in pregnancy termination procedures most commonly used the task-oriented coping style. The emotion-oriented coping style was positively related to burnout in the group which performed pregnancy terminations. The analysis showed that the higher the indices of neuroticism, the greater the severity of burnout in both groups. The results indicate the need to conduct an initial assessment of personality resources when employing midwives to the wards.

对波兰医院工作的 181 名助产士进行了一项横断面研究。助产士完成了专业心理测试（CISS 问卷、EPQ-R 问卷、OLBI 问卷）以及为本研究开发的问卷。参与终止妊娠手术的助产士最常采用任务导向的应对方式。在终止妊娠的组中，以情绪为导向的应对方式与倦怠呈正相关。分析显示，两组神经质指数越高，倦怠程度越严重。结果表明，在病房雇用助产士时需要对人格资源进行初步评估。
