The present study examines the relationship between self-representation discrepancies (future self vs. correctional officer), the burnout syndrome, and job satisfaction among a sample of correctional of- ficers. Results showed that burnout decreased job satisfaction. Furthermore, self-representation dis- crepancies between future self and correctional officer decreased job satisfaction and increased burnout levels. Finally, burnout mediated the relationship between self-representation discrepancies and job sat- isfaction. Higher discrepancies decreased satisfaction with one’s job through increasing burnout levels.

Abstract
The present study examines the relationship between self-representation discrepancies (future self vs. correctional officer), the burnout syndrome, and job satisfaction among a sample of correctional of- ficers. Results showed that burnout decreased job satisfaction. Furthermore, self-representation dis- crepancies between future self and correctional officer decreased job satisfaction and increased burnout levels. Finally, burnout mediated the relationship between self-representation discrepancies and job sat- isfaction. Higher discrepancies decreased satisfaction with one’s job through increasing burnout levels.File in questo prodotto:
