The questionnaire survey was carried out using the scales of Self-Reporting Inventory( SCL-90),Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey and Mental Fatigue subscale of Fatigue Scale-14 to investigate the workers' mental health,job burnout and mental fatigue. RESULTS: The scores of SCL-90 and job burnout in mental workers were( 142. 4 ± 42. 2) and( 41. 8 ± 10. 5). The medium( P25,P75) mental fatigue total score was [3. 0( 2. 0,4. 0) ].The correlation analysis showed that the total score of SCL-90 was positively correlated with that of mental fatigue and job burnout( P < 0. 01). The job burnout was the intermediate variable between mental fatigue and mental health( 43. 4% of the total effect). The dimension of low sense of accomplishment was the regulating variable. CONCLUSION: Job burnout plays an intermediate role between mental fatigue and mental health in mental workers. The low sense of accomplishment plays a regulatory role.
