- Seventy-six percent (76%) of participants indicated high to moderate potential for compassion satisfaction.
- Secondary traumatic stress is positively correlated with the number of traumatic life events experienced.
- Spiritual well-being is positively associated with compassion satisfaction, particularly in the areas of meaning, peace, and faith.
