“…In fact, it is considered that up to 50% of workers could suffer from emotional exhaustion, one of the dimensions of the syndrome [11]. Likewise, it is considered that a large part of mental illness is, in part, due to factors related to occupational stress, affecting people in all biological, social, and psychological areas [12,13].…”

Burnout, Resilience, and COVID-19 among Teachers: Predictive Capacity of an Artificial Neural Network

2021

Emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and work inefficiency are three dimensions that define burnout syndrome among teachers. On another note, resilience can be understood as the ability to adapt to the environment and overcome adverse situations. In addition, COVID-19 has provided a threatening environment that has led to the implementation of resilience strategies to struggle with burnout and cope with the virus. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between resilience, burnout dimensions, and variables associated with COVID-19 through the design of an artificial neural network architecture. For this purpose, the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS), the Brief Resilience Coping Scale (BRCS), and a questionnaire on stress towards COVID-19 were administered to 419 teachers from secondary schools in southeastern Spain (292 females; 69.7%). The results showed that 30.8% suffered from burnout (high emotional exhaustion, high cynicism, and low professional efficacy) and that 38.7% had a high level of resilience, with an inverse relationship between both constructs. Likewise, we modelled an ANN able to predict burnout syndrome among 97.4% of teachers based on its dimensions, resilience, sociodemographic variables, and the stress generated by COVID-19. Our conclusions shed some light on the efficacy of relying on artificial intelligence in the educational field to predict the psychological situation of teachers and take early action.

“…In the recent decades, teaching has been considered one of the most predisposed professions to the development of mental health disorders (i.e., anxiety, depression, anger) or behavioral symptoms (i.e., absenteeism, lack of commitment) [11], so much so that it has been included among the "helping professions" to keep under control [12,13].…”

Effects of an 8-Week Yoga-Based Physical Exercise Intervention on Teachers’ Burnout

2021

The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to investigate the efficacy of an 8-week yoga-based physical exercise program to improve mental and emotional well-being and consequently reduce burnout among teachers. We considered yoga because it is a discipline that enhances body awareness and encourages the contact with nature and the respect for every form of life, with a view to a more sustainable and greener global system. We recruited 40 professional educators (40–47 years), teachers in a public high school who reported perceiving signs of stress and emotional discomfort. We randomly assigned the 40 professional educators to either an experimental yoga practice (~60 min, twice a week) group (n = 20) or a control group (n = 20) that received a nonspecific training program (~60 min, twice a week). At baseline and after training we administered the Maslach Burnout Inventory: Educators Survey (MBI-ES) and the State Mindfulness Scale (SMS) to assess teachers' perceived level of awareness and professional burnout. We found a significant Time x Group interaction for the MBI-ES and SMS, reflecting a meaningful experimental group improvement (p < 0.001). No significant pre–post changes were found in the control group. The results suggest that an 8-week yoga practice could aid teachers to achieve a greater body and emotional awareness and prevent professional burnout.

“…Burnout among university students has the same characteristics as burnout in the professional field [17]. However, emotional exhaustion is highlighted as the most prevalent symptom in relation to the other two dimensions.…”

Burnout, engagement, and organisational justice concepts are usually studied in the context of labour organisations, but not in universities. For this, the objective of this research is to identify the students’ empirically evidenced relationships in the employment context, such as levels of organisational justice, stress indicators, burnout and work commitment. On the other hand, engagement is analysed as a mediating variable that explains the relationship between organisational justice and burnout. A sample of 543 students from three Spanish universities, selected by purposive sampling, is used ensuring voluntary and anonymous participation. The instruments used to measure the four variables to analyse are a protocol for data collection, MBI-SS instrument for Academic Burnout, Utrecht Work Engagement Student Scale (UWES) for Engagement and the Scale of Organisational Justice for Organisational Justice. As a result, college students show behaviours that promote academic achievement, and they feel more engaged when they are treated fairly. As for the burnout syndrome dimensions, average levels of emotional exhaustion and academic efficacy, and high levels of cynicism are revealed. In addition, the proposed structural equation model supports the main hypothesis; engagement is a mediating variable in the organisational justice and burnout relationship. To conclude, academic stress and its explanatory framework cannot be conceived only from an organisational perspective, where the context of each student must be considered. The adoption of organisational preventive measures can be relevant in ensuring a healthy and conducive academic performance in our students.
