Abstract
PINILLOS-PATINO, YISEL et al. Psychosocial risk factors impact of control and reward as perceived by medical residents. Salud, Barranquilla [online]. 2022, vol.38, n.3, pp.711-728. Epub May 26, 2023. ISSN 0120-5552. https://doi.org/10.14482/sun.38.3.610.
Objective:
To analyze the perception of residents to psychosocial risk factors they face throughout their academic training related to the domains of control and work rewards.
Materials and Methods:
Qualitative study with phenomenological methodology, which used in-depth interview as a technique to obtain data from the elements contemplated in the Battery of Instruments for the Evaluation of Psychosocial Risk Factors of the Ministry of Social Protection of Colombia. Forty-two residents from 8 medical specialties in Barranquilla were interviewed. The analysis of the information obtained was interpreted based on Schütz's sociological theory.
Results:
A relationship was observed between workload, time and organization, with little recognition of effort. In addition, there is little attachment to the institutions and there is no stable professional and emotional bond due to the low perception of self-fulfillment in the exercise of their work.
Conclusions:
The control and reward domains are conjectured as frequent problems in the field of medical residencies. If there is no control of the functions, participation in decision making and in the functioning of the institution, and if there are few opportunities to demonstrate mastery in the acquired responsibilities, the perception of well-being is implicated.
