TL;DR
The DEJRS is a valuable and psychometrically sound instrument to monitor job resources as experienced by GDPs and stimulating a greater awareness of job resources serves a major role in burnout prevention.
Abstract
The DEJRS is a valuable and psychometrically sound instrument to monitor job resources as experienced by GDPs. Dentists report immediate results and aesthetics, and long-term results of working with patients to be the most rewarding aspects. All job resources showed a positive correlation with job satisfaction. The discussion includes conjecture that stimulating a greater awareness of job resources serves a major role in burnout prevention.
