Burnout in HIV/AIDS Volunteers: A Sociocultural Analysis Among Latino Gay and Bisexual Men and Transgender People
研究分析了拉丁裔男同性恋、双性恋男性和跨性别者中HIV/AIDS志愿者倦怠的相关因素,发现负面志愿经历增加倦怠,而个人HIV/AIDS经历和社区归属感则减少倦怠,对社区组织保留志愿者有启示。
Understanding factors associated with burnout among HIV/AIDS volunteers has long-ranging implications for community organizations and prevention. Using a cross-sectional sample of Latino gay/bisexual men and transgender people (N=309), we assess potential correlates of burnout identified by multiple theories, including factors associated with volunteering (experiences, motives) and contextual factors (stigma, sense of community). Reporting negative volunteering experiences was positively associated with burnout, while being motivated by personal HIV/AIDS experiences and having a greater sense of GLBT community was negatively related to burnout. The study highlights central challenges and opportunities to retain volunteers from marginalized communities.
