The findings revealedthat 71% of the participants experienced burnout. Asignificant relationship was identified between yearsof professional experience and burnout levels (F =3.813, p = 0.024). Additionally, negative correlationswere observed between burnout and age (r = -0.211,p < 0.01) as well as between burnout and choosingthe profession willingly (r = -0.182, p < 0.05).ConclusionThis study highlights a significant association betweenprofessional experience, personal factors such as age,and interest in the profession, with burnout amongpathologists in Türkiye.
