Personality Traits, Burnout, Workplace Bullying and Sleep Quality Among Midwives: A Pilot Study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThe work of midwives is often mentally and physically exhausting. We sought to determine whether an association exists between personality traits, burnout syndrome, bullying in the workplace, and sleep quality. Additionally, we aimed to assess whether personality traits, dimensions of burnout, and sleep quality differ between a group of bullied and non-bullied midwives.
designA cross-sectional, correlation study was conducted.
methodsThe research sample consisted of 71 midwives, average age 36 years, average length of practice 14.23 years. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), Negative Acts Questionnaire-revised (NAQ-R), International Personality Item Pool: Big Five Markers-50 (IPIP-BFM-50) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
resultsThere was a significant relationship between personality traits, workplace bullying, the dimensions of burnout, and poor sleep quality. There were significant differences in extroversion, emotional stability, emotional exhaustion, and sleep quality between those midwives that experienced workplace bullying and those that did not. Victims of workplace bullying tended to be more neurotic and less extroverted than non-victims.
conclusionThe study findings indicate that personality traits may function as both predictors and outcomes of workplace bullying. There was no patient or public contribution.
