Description The purpose of this correlational quantitative study was to examine the perception of interprofessional education/collaboration (IPE/IPC), self-esteem, burnout and the relationship among them in medical imaging professionals. Understanding the correlation between these variables assists practitioners in maintaining better patient outcomes and reducing medical errors that are attributable to job dissatisfaction, low self-esteem, and burnout. Among the 396 participants, study results confirmed the expected positive correlation between IPE/IPC and self-esteem (r = 0.38, p<.001), and a negative correlation between self-esteem and burnout (r = -0.44, p<.001). Additionally, there was a stronger negative correlation between IPE/IPC sum scores with burnout (r = -0.47, p<.001). When using the IPEC Competency Self-Assessment Tool and BBI-9 subscales, the strongest negative correlation was seen between IPE/IPC and the feelings of inadequacy subscale (r= -0.48, p<.001). Results of the study lead the authors to conclude that experience in IPE/IPC practices may mitigate burnout in medical imaging professionals by way of increased self-esteem. Limitations of the study include a lack of uniform environment for survey participants, as well as possibility for inherent procedural and response bias. Recommendations for future research include analyzing differences in burnout rates between imaging sub-specialties, hospital and population size.
