We have focused on the analyses of the most negative memories of a particular group of doctors related to their work experience. After interviewing 24 professionals of different specialties, their narratives were analyzed using the criteria of specificity, agency, and theme of the memory. Most memories were considered specific as they were vividly remembered with attention to detail. Men have more narratives linked to agency, while the majority of women develop narratives linked to communion. Furthermore, five clearly differentiated topics were observed regarding the professional’s degree of experience. A qualitative analysis of the memories of these professionals, as well as a description of the appropriation process of the discursive features is presented. The dimensions of analysis of the responses included in the Dataset are described in the Coding Manual. |

A psychologist specializing in human resources designed an ad hoc autobiographical interview. The intention of this interview was to both respond to the questions of the research and to learn about the memories related to their jobs, and learn how these memories have changed their lives. From the existing prompts, the following was the one chosen to be analyzed. “I would like you to recall a memory of your professional experience which you consider to be particularly negative, specifying the emotion with which you would describe it.” The interviews, conducted by the first author (S.A.S.) and principal researcher, had an average duration of 30minutes and were conducted in either the participant’s office or a meeting room in the healthcare agency. After the verbal transcription of the memories, two trained researchers analyzed the narratives following three steps and using version 15 of the program Atlas-Ti for the coding. In Figure 1, a summary of the process, which could be considered a mixed-method type study, is presented. First, following the categories of Conway and Pleydell-Pearce (2000) narratives were coded as specific, referring to events that once occurred at a particular time (“the night my first patient died”), or general, referring to events that occur regularly or multiple times (“when I was not allowed to do an intervention because the lack of funds”). Second, in order to categorize the orientation to agency the “Coding Autobiographical Episodes for Themes of Agency and Communion” (McAdams, 2001). Finally, the interviews were analyzed individually by three researchers and later collectively as a group looking for the most important issues remembered. In accordance with our aims, a thematic analysis was used for the qualitative interview’s analysis since it is a robust and parsimonious methodology of enquiry data (Braun and Clarke, 2006). The dimensions of analysis of the responses included in the Dataset are described in the Coding Manual. |
