Background and purpose:Attention to midwives and their physical and mental health is essential for increasing the quality of services and maintaining the work force. Occupational burnout is one of the factors affecting mental health and performance of individuals. The purpose of this study was to survey the occupational burnout in midwives and its relation with spiritual intelligence.Materials and method: This cross-sectional study was performed on all midwives working in hospitals and health centers in Sabzevar in 2017 by census method. Data collection tools included demographic questionnaire,Maslach burnout Inventory and King’s Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Descriptive Statistics, Pearson, Spearman correlation, Man-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis by SPSS(ver.17).Results: The score of occupational burnout in midwives was 41,81±17,47 and spiritual intelligence was67.88±10.73. There was not a significant correlation between the occupational burnout and spiritual intelligence in midwives. There was a significant and direct correlation between the occupational burnout with age (p=0.02, r= 0.16) and work experience (p= 0.001, r=0.26). Also there was a significant and reverse correlation between the occupational burnout and income satisfaction (p=0.01,r=-0.19) and job satisfaction (r= -0.46, p0.001). Occupational burnout was higher in official midwives (p=0.01).Conclusion: The burnout of midwives was moderate and there was no significant relationship between burnout and spiritual intelligence. Considering the importance of midwifery in the field of health and improving the quality of clinical services, It seems necessary to adopt strategy for reduce occupational burnout such as; reducing work-related pressures and improving working conditions.

This study aimed to design and assess a comprehensive questionnaire about the violence against women in an Iranian population.Materials and Methods:This study was a sequential exploratory mixed method.. According to the results of the qualitative Research and the revising of texts ,the primitive instruments were designed. Face validity ,content validity (by measuring content validity toward content validity index)and construct validity(by analysis of exploratory factor) were used to determine the validity of instruments and therefore internal consistency and test-retest method were used to determine reliability of instruments.In face validity 7items were excluded due to a score less than 1.5.In content validity by taking the 0.79 cut-off point to assess content validity index and 0.59 cut-off point to 34 items were elimented. And thus the number of items reduced to 58. validity by exploratory factor analysis was performed. Exploratory factor analysis suggested a six-factor model items including: Social factors undermining family stability, unhealthy life skills of couples, improper and insufficient teachings to couples , unhealthy treating of wives toward their husbands, Family support paradox, immediacy. These six factors explained 75% of variance violence against women. therefore internal consistency and test-retest method were used to determine reliability of instruments(α=0.987), (ICC=0.992).Considering that all validity and reliability indexes of the questionnaire are reported in an appropriate level, violence against women’ questionnaire can be used as a valid and reliable questionnaire in measuring domestic violence in Iranian married men. However ,future research is recommended to evaluate usability of the study in other cultural settings.
