OBJECTIVE: With this research we try to study personality traits that could be associated with high punctuation at burnout scales (Maslach Burnout Inventory) in primary care physicians. DESIGN: Observational, descriptive, transversal. STUDY SETTING: 93 primary care centres in Barcelona-city and the northern province's region: Vallès Oriental, Vallès Occidental, Maresme, Osona, Bages and Berguedà (centre sanitary region). METHOD: Individual or collective direct interview to 528 primary care physicians. Three questionnaires were administrated: a sociodemographic item one, the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and the Cattell personality test 16-PF. RESULTS: The 40% of the interviewed physicians had some burnout symptoms without any difference between sexes. 12.4% of these showed very high burnout levels. Those subjects with burnout criteria punctuated different at stability, tension and vigilance traits and anxiety dimension.
