Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy is a continuous effort to deeply experience emotions and feelings as a healing element. research has also shown the efficacy of (ISTDP) on Meatal Disorders. therefore according to the research background, there was a research gap in the field of Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy (ISTDP) on burnout in the aviation industry.

The aim of this study was to to evaluate the efficacy of Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy (ISTDP) on Tehran air traffic control staff who experienced symptoms burnout.

This quasi-experimental study was a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The Statistical population included ATC in Tehran in 2019 all were tested by Saatchi and Hooman’s burnout questionnaires (2008), Out of 123 people identified in the screening, 30 participants whose burnout scores were higher than the cut-off point of 182 were selected for the study and in the next stage again by job stress 60 questions Osipow (1987), and a short form of quality scale of 26 questions of the WHOQLS- BREF (1996)Were evaluated and randomly assigned to the experimental group (n = 15) and the control group (n = 15). The experimental group participated in 20 sessions of 90 minutes of Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy and the control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed using covariance test performed using SPSS 20

There was a significant difference between the two groups in the posttest in job stress, quality of life and self-efficacy. Experimental group showed a significant decrease compared to the control group(P <0.05)

Considering that Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy is effective in reducing negative emotions and burnout, in air traffic control staff, it can be He did it on more examples and in a other society.

The work environment is associated with numerous potential biopsychosocial harms which can cause stress as a psychological reaction. The common denominator of such jobs is that the nature of the work can be considered highly emotional. Due to their sensitive professional nature, air traffic control personnel are constantly exposed to stress and tension; thus, stress is a well–known component of air traffic control and a challenge for this profession. Job burnout is among the most essential issues at the managerial and human resource levels of organizations. Burnout results from chronic job stress in the workplace, i.e., addressed and treated improperly. This condition is characterized by fatigue, depersonalization, and reduced satisfaction with the quality of work. Job burnout decreases physical and mental strength as well as the quality of life. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between quality of life, job stress, and job burnout in air traffic control staff.

This was a descriptive–analytical and correlational study. The statistical population of the study included 260 air traffic control employees in Tehran City, Iran, in 2019. After obtaining the necessary permissions and coordination, the Occupational Burnout Questionnaire (Saatchi & Hooman, 2008) was distributed among 260 study subjects. The study participants were given the necessary instructions on completing the questionnaires. Besides, the investigated staff individually completed the questionnaires to respect their privacy. In total, 123 study participants returned the completed questionnaires. Moreover, 30 subjects whose burnout scores were higher than the cut–off point of 182 were selected for the study. For data collection, the Occupational Burnout Questionnaire (Saatchi and Hooman, 2008), the Occupational Stress Inventory (Osipow & Spokane, 1998), and the Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL–BREF; World Health Organization, 1996) were used. To analyze the collected data, descriptive statistics (frequency, mean, & standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation coefficient & regression analysis) were applied at a significance level of 0.05 in SPSS.

The obtained Pearson correlation coefficient data suggested a significant relationship between quality of life and job burnout (r=–0.28, p<0.001) as well as job stress and job burnout (r=0.24, p<0.001).  The results of regression analysis indicated that quality of life (Beta=–0.24, p<0.001) and job stress (Beta=–0.31, p<0.001,) could predict burnout in the explored air traffic control staff.

Based on the present study results, job burnout can predict the quality of life and job stress. Implementing interventions to reduce occupational stress and improving some resources can be helpful to reduce job burnout. Accordingly, we could improve the health status of air traffic control employees by overcoming job burnout.
