Description:Objective:
Investigate the associations between drug abuse and the prevalence of the engagement and burnout dichotomy in law professionals.
Methods:
Eligible participants completed a questionnaire where odds ratios of drug abuse and other confounding variables and their association to engagement or burnout were calculated using multiple logistic regression.
Results:
When looking at all law professionals, burnout is a statistically significant predictor for drug abuse (p =0.04, not shown). Law professionals whose burnout scores fell in the highest bin have 4.71 (95% CI [1.38 – 16.08]) times higher odds of having a problem with drug abuse than those whose burnout scores fell in the second bin.
Conclusion:
Study findings showed a possible way to affect the prevalence of drug abuse in law professionals by affecting the engagement and burnout dichotomy.
