The objective
of the present study is to determine the burnout levels of architects working
in architectural firms and to identify whether their burnout levels
differentiated based on certain demographic variables. The population of the
study included 1250 architects registered with Chamber of Architects in Bursa
province. Sample of the study included 150 volunteer architects that work at
architectural firms in Bursa and accessed with e-mail. Personal Information
Form and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) Form were used as data collection
tools in the study. Data analysis was conducted with log linear analysis, which
is commonly used for multivariate categorical data analysis. It was determined
that the architects had intermediate level of burnout. Correlation between the
burnout levels of the architects and factors such as gender, age, education
level, marital status, willingness in choice of profession, hours spent at the
office, number of architects working at the same office, total weekly work
hours, average annual income was analyzed. Statistical data analysis
demonstrated that females and architects who stated that their choice of
profession was not voluntary had higher levels of burnout.
