Favoring indirect, abstract, helping behaviors was associated with higher scores of compassion satisfaction. The bar graphs compare scores on Compassion Satisfaction, Burnout, and Secondary Traumatic Stress between physicians who favor direct (ALT-D>ALT-I) and indirect (ALT-I>ALT-D) helping behaviors. Error bars are SEM. Grey dots/bars represent preferably direct helpers, while black bars represent preferably indirect helpers.
