Five constituents stand out：1) society’s expectation of caregiving workers as professional job, and their social participation, 2) a gap between reality and ideal, 3) a failure of caregiving workers to positively perform their role because of increasing job stress, 4) transformation of heightened burning experiences into a feel of being in desert, 5) weighting completely in favor of one side.
