“…A depressive mood is usually associated with teacher profiles at risk, since they have high EE and DE [20,21]. However, the results showed that self-esteem has a fundamental role in situations of burnout among teachers, since self-esteem can influence the levels of stress or burnout [22,[24][25][26]28,29]. As it has been observed in this research, the profile of the teaching staff is associated with different levels of self-esteem, as well as in depressive symptomatology.…”

“…Scores above those values refer to high self-esteem, while scores below would be related to low self-esteem in the general population. Cronbach’s alpha ranged from 0.77 to 0.88 approximately in several previous studies [ 7 , 11 , 22 , 24 , 34 ]. In this study: negative items α = 0.92 and positive items α = 0.93.…”

“…In-line with this, several authors have confirmed similar data, since self-esteem has an association between burnout and poor health. Self-esteem allows you to relieve burnout by improving your quality of life [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ]. Thus, people with low self-esteem are more vulnerable to burnout, showing higher levels of EE [ 28 ] and depersonalization [ 26 ].…”

“…Thus, people's self-esteem affects their work, in turn, which means better or worse results [30]. Professional achievement is positively related to self-esteem [24,26]. However, people with low self-esteem have a higher vulnerability; they show higher levels of emotional exhaustion, anxiety, impulsivity compared to people with high self-esteem [27][28][29] and depersonalization and even creating a feeling of incompetence in their relationships with others [26].…”

Burnout is a reality in the teaching profession. Specifically, teaching staff usually have higher burnout rates. The present study aims to analyze the different burnout profiles and to verify if there were differences between burnout profiles in depressive symptomatology and in the self-esteem of the teachers at school. The total number of participants was 210 teachers from 30 to 65 years. The first scale was the Maslach burnout inventory, the second scale was the Self-Rating depression scale and the third scale was the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. The latent class analysis identified three burnout profiles: the first group with a high level of emotional exhaustion, low personal accomplishment and depersonalization (high burnout); the second group with low emotional exhaustion, low depersonalization and high personal accomplishment (low burnout) and the third group with low depersonalization, low emotional exhaustion and low personal accomplishment (moderate burnout). The results revealed that there were differences in depressive symptomatology (group 1 obtained higher scores than group 2 and group 3) and self-esteem (group 2 obtained higher scores than group 1). The psychological balance and health of teachers depend on preventing the factors that have been associated with this syndrome.
