ABSTRACT
Objective:
To determine the prevalence and comorbid mental disorders of self-reported diagnosis of burnout syndrome in the general population of Germany.Methods:
In the German Health Interview and Examination Survey (DEGS1) self-reported diagnosis of a burnout syndrome made by a physician or psychotherapist was assessed in a standardized interview (Nâ=â7987). For Nâ=â4483 mental disorders were determined with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI). Weighted lifetime and 12-month prevalences were calculated.Results:
Lifetime prevalence of diagnosed burnout syndrome was 4.2â% (women 5.2â%, men 3.3â%), 12-month prevalence was 1.5â% (women 1.9â%, men 1.1â%). Highest prevalences were found in 40â-â59 year olds, in people with middle and high socio-economic status and in women with low and men with high social support. Among the 12-month cases, 70.9â% had at least one DSM-IV disorder. Associations were found for the diagnosis of burnout syndrome with somatoform, affective and anxiety disorders.Conclusion:
The diagnosis of burnout syndrome is less frequently given and reported than expected. People with a burnout diagnosis often have a manifest mental disorder.
