Model 2: education, marital status, living with children, working hours/week, work pressure, and workplace social support
Boldface indicates statistical significance (P < 0.05)
Burnout was measured with the Dutch Maslach Burnout Inventory; higher scores indicating burnout. Distress was measured with the Four-Dimensional Symptom Questionnaire; higher scores indicating distress
*Significant interaction with age (interaction P value < 0.05)
