Brief Summary  

The title of the study is "The Relationship between Personal Values, Compassion Fatigue and Well- Being among Medical Doctors"

Aim of the study:   The study aims to explore the relationship between personal values, compassion fatigue and well-being among medical doctors.

Objectives:

Primary objectives:   

  1. To study the degrees of burnout, secondary traumatic stress and compassion fatigue, among medical doctors.  
  1. To examine the relationship between personal values and compassion fatigue. 
  1. To study the relationship between personal values and well-being.  
  1. To compare how personal values vary across socio-demographic variables.

Secondary objective:   

To examine the moderating function of personal values in the relationship between well-being and compassion fatigue among medical doctor                                                                                     


There is only little focus given to doctors’ personal values. Most research overlooks how stable values influence stress management in practicing doctors. Understanding this can help develop interventions to enhance resilience, reduce emotional exhaustion and improve patient care. 

The study will be conducted at the Department of Clinical Psychology, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, following authorization from department, Institutional Research Committee (IRC), Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) and registration under Clinical Trials Registry, India (CTRI).  

Recruitment will involve medical doctors from India from age 25 to 65 years old. Participants will be recruited through professional and personal contacts, with necessary permissions. If required, hospitals will be visited, and doctors approached. Data will be collected offline via printed forms and online via Google Forms, including informed consent, demographic details, and study questionnaires and scales namely, Kessler Psychological Distress scale, Professional Quality of Life scale, Portrait Values Questionnaire and Psychological well-being scale. Participants can complete the form once, with reminders sent every two weeks (three times). Non-responders will be noted, and missing data handled statistically.
