Abstract
This investigation examined psychological burnout among 828 men and women in police work using a framework developed by Cherniss (1980). Work-setting characteristics in concert with person variables (individual differences and extrawork factors) were hypothesized to result in experienced stress. Some individuals cope with these sources of stress by developing the negative attitude change termed burnout. Respondents provided data by completing questionnaires anonymously. The data provided strong preliminary support for the Cherniss model and produced findings consistent with previous research. Suggestions for organizational inter vention are offered.
