The study deals with relations of optimism, coping strategies and Burnout syndrome in the population of general practitioners. The research sample consisted of 67 physicians, including 29 men (43.3%) and 38 women (56.7%). Mean age of the group was 46.54 years. The main aim of the research was to investigate whether and to which extent optimism correlates with dimensions of the Burnout syndrome, and to find out which coping strategies correlate with dimensions of the burnout syndrome positively and which negatively. Relations between the Burnout syndrome and sex, length of practice and mental hygiene activities were also investigated. We used questionnaire LOT-R for measuring optimism, the SVF 78 for identification of individual coping strategies and the MBI questionnaire to determine the degree of the Burnout syndrome in dimensions emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment. Data analysis revealed that practitioners with higher level of optimism show a lower degree of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and greater personal accomplishment. Both dimensions of Burnout, i.e. emotional exhaustion and depersonalization are associated with negative coping strategies, and not related to positive coping strategies. Dimension of personal accomplishment is related with the positive coping strategy rather than with negative strategies.
