Association between job factors, burnout, and preference for a new job: a nationally representative physician survey.
Investigators used an experimental vignette to test associations between physician demographics, salary, and working with exemplary colleagues on the likelihood of preferring a new job among burned out and non-burned out physicians in various specialties. They found that, among burned out physicians, the opportunity for better salary and colleagues made them more likely to prefer a new job compared to non-burned out physicians, with change in salary associated with the greatest difference. They recommended focusing on improving physician-colleague relationships to improve job retention.

Graduating pediatric residents entering the hospital medicine workforce, 2006-2015.
This study analyzed the population of graduating pediatric residents entering the new subspecialty – pediatric hospital medicine (PHM). Data was analyzed from the American Academic of Pediatrics Annual Survey of Graduating Residents, 2006-2015. A total of 5969 graduates completed the survey, and 10.3% reported that they were entering PHM and 33.9% were reporting subspecialty fellowships. A multivariable analysis was done of the demographics, and a higher rate of residents entering PHM were female, to have children, to report that family factors limited their job selection, and to have higher levels of student debt than residents entering fellowships.
