Research has shown that women are more likely to report feelings of emotional exhaustion, which is a key component of burnout, characterized by overwhelming exhaustion, feelings of cynicism and detachment from the job, and a sense of ineffectiveness and lack of accomplishment. On the other hand, men are more likely to report depersonalization, another dimension of burnout, which involves a sense of detachment from others and a negative, cynical attitude towards one's clients or colleagues.
