During the training phase, the trainee teacher seems to be more and more confronted with discomfort and stress, due to the accumulation of demands and obligations. Many of them are mostly unable to take it any longer, which makes them vulnerable to the burnout risk. This research aims to study the academic burnout of trainee teachers at the “Centre Régional des Métiers de l’Education et de la Formation “(CRMEF) of the Rabat-Sale-Kenitra region during 2019/2020. Four hundred and fifty trainee teachers responded to a self-questionnaire comprising the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) scale in its French version, as well as certain stress factors. In agreement with the literature, more than 60% of teachers show moderate and high levels of academic exhaustion, the main likely stressors presented are financial instability, and training overload. Many trainee teachers cannot cope with the burnout syndrome, which conducts to stress and absenteeism during the training, we hope that this study will lead to some practical solutions to prevent and reduce the risk of academic burnout.

With the aim of measuring trainee’s academic burnout, the Maslach Burnout Inventory –Student Scale was translated, revised and validated. A cross-sectorial study took place between November and March 2020.The sample consisted 160 trainee teachers (36% males, 64% females) from Kénitra Regional Center of Education and Training (CRMEF). The average age is 27.94 ± 5.44 years. The Data collected was analyzed by SPSS to establish descriptive analysis, calculate reliability, and other psychometric properties. An exploratory factor analysis was used to validate the MBI-SS instrument. The results indicated the conservation of three factors. All subscales had satisfactory reliability. This study can be applied to more specific samples in other regional centers.

Studying for a university degree can be very demanding, as students must cope with a variety of academic, social and personal challenges. If these demands persist, and if there are insufficient resources with which to address them, they will eventually provoke stress. When stress is present for long periods of time, it can lead to academic burnout syndrome, the signs of which are emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation and inadequate personal accomplishment. This paper considers certain sociodemographic factors (age, sex, children, marital status, employment status, degree subject, faculty, academic year) in the identification of a risk profile of developing burnout syndrome. This study is cross-sectional, associative and ex post facto. The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey was administered to 445 students in the University of Granada. According to the risk profile obtained, first-year male students in Primary Education and Social Education courses are at risk of developing burnout syndrome.

  Objetivo: El objetivo de nuestro estudio es analizar si el hecho de combinar los estudios universitarios y la Actividad Laboral Remunerada se asocia con el síndrome de burnout académico en los estudiantes de 1º curso de la Universidad de Vic-Universidad Central de Catalunya (UVic-UCC) y si existe una relación sobre el rendimiento académico. Metodología: Es un estudio observacional, transversal. La muestra comprende 301 estudiantes de 1º curso. Los instrumentos utilizados son una encuesta telemática y el Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey. Resultados: El 16,9% de los estudiantes presentan Burnout Académico. No se observan diferencias significativas según el sexo. El 33% de los estudiantes combinan actividad laboral remunerada y estudios. De estos, el 14,1% presentan Burnout Académico. No se observan diferencias significativas en el rendimiento académico entre los estudiantes que trabajan y estudian y los que solo estudian. Conclusión: Los estudiantes presentan burnout tanto sí trabajan como no. Al inicio del primer curso del grado, un tercio de los estudiantes combinaban sus estudios con el trabajo y no se aprecia un incremento de burnout académico. El rendimiento académico no se ve afectado por el hecho de combinar el trabajo y los estudios universitarios. Abstract. Goal. The aim of our study is to analyze whether combining university studies and professional work activity is associated with academic burnout syndrome in 1st year students at the University of Vic-Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) and the relationship on performance academic. Methodology. It is a non-experimental observational study of cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 301 1st year undergraduate students in the UVic-UCC. The instruments used consist of a telematic structured survey and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey questionnaire. Results. 16.9% of the students present academic burnout. No statistically significant differences were observed by sex. 33% of students have a remunerated job that they combine with their studies. Of these students, 14.1% have academic burnout. There are no significant differences in academic performance between students who work and study and those who only study. Conclusion: At the beginning of the first year of the university degree, a third of the students combined their studies with work. The fact of working and starting university studies does not produce an increase in academic burnout. Students show burnout whether they work or not. Academic performance is not affected by combining work and university studies.

Nurses in Intensive Care Units (ICU) may be exposed to considerable stress of work. High levels of stress in ICU nurses affect the quality of nursing and the quality of life at work. Determination of occupational stress levels, burnout syndrome and overall job satisfaction among ICU nurses. The research was conducted in Intensive Care Unit of Emergency Clinical County Hospital of Oradea, Romania. Data were collected from the questionnaires, 29 nurses (of the 35) were selected for this study. Professional stress factors have been assessed through Expanded Nurses Stress Scale (ENSS), burnout syndrome through Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS), while overall job satisfaction was measured by a 7-step Likert scale. The highest levels of stress were associated with workload and conflicts with other health professionals, professional relationship between nurses have been described as the least stressful. About burnout levels: a high score for emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and a low score for professional achievements. Professional satisfaction has reached an average level. The fidelity of the scales was verified by the Cronbach’s alfa coefficient: Expanded Nurses Stress Scale (ENSS) (0.98) and Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) (0.73).

OBJECTIVE: This study was proposed to estimate the effectiveness of different screening methods of the Burnout Syndrome among dental students. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The Burnout Syndrome assessment was performed using the Oldenburg Inventory-Student survey (OLBI-SS) and the Copenhagen Inventory-Student survey (CBI‑SS). The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student survey (MBI-SS) was used as the gold standard. The psychometric properties of the instruments were measured. The second-order hierarchical model was estimated to calculate the overall scores for OLBI-SS and CBI-SS, and ROC curves were constructed and the areas were estimated (AUROC). RESULT: A total of 235 undergraduate students participated in this study. The instruments showed an adequate reliability and validity; however three questions had to be removed from OLBI-SS and one from CBI-SS. The Exhaustion dimension of OLBI-SS, and Personal Burnout and Study related Burnout of CBI-SS presented a good discriminating capacity. CONCLUSION: CBI-SS showed higher discriminating capacity, than OLBI-SS, to identify the Burnout Syndrome (DAUROC=.172 [.103-.240]; p<.05).

The study examined the relationship between academic burnout and academic achievement among secondary school students in the Kenyan context. Data were collected from 714 form 4 students (equivalent to 12th graders) drawn from 31 public secondary schools. The Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey was used. Academic achievement was measured using students’ grades in end of term examinations. The results of the Pearson product moment correlation of coefficient revealed a significant inverse relationship between academic burnout and academic achievement (r (712) = −0.24, p<0.01). Furthermore, regression analysis revealed that academic efficacy significantly predicted academic achievement (β = 0.18, p<0.01). A key implication of the findings is that examination-oriented approach to learning be reduced to ease the pressure exerted on learners for good academic grades.

Abstract: Introduction: Burnout Syndrome (BS) is related to chronic occupational stress, present in the life of medical students. This syndrome comprises three basic dimensions: I- emotional exhaustion; II- increased mental distancing from the work itself or feelings of negativism and cynicism related to the work itself; and III - reduced professional effectiveness. This study aims to assess the prevalence, risk factors for the development and symptoms associated with Burnout Syndrome in medical students from a district college, in addition to establishing a profile of students with a higher risk of having a BS diagnosis. Method: This is a cross-sectional observational study. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) - Student Survey questionnaire, specific version for students, which is a questionnaire of sociodemographic factors, one of predictive factors and another of possible somatic symptoms associated with BS were applied. The sample was obtained by convenience and its representativeness was calculated in relation to the total number of students. A student was considered to be at moderate or high risk of developing BS when they had one or two altered BS dimensions, respectively. Results: 67.11% of the total students regularly enrolled from the 1st to the 6th year of the medical course answered the questionnaires. Of the total sample, 80.63% of male students and 81.06% of female students were identified as having a high or moderate risk for BS. The sociodemographic factors associated with the risk of developing BS were: age, who the student lives with, having children and doing paid work. The most statistically significant predictor was the self-management of tasks proposed by the Medical School. Conclusion: The prevalence of high risk and diagnosis of BS found among medical students was 26.44% and 3.95%, respectively. Differences were identified between the high-risk profiles for female and male students.

Introduction Burnout syndrome is common among medical students, but findings about the gender differences in burnout are not consistent. The aim of this study was to assess high risk of burnout syndrome among medical students at one University in Serbia, by gender. Method A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Kragujevac in 2014. The Maslach Burnout Inventory—Student Survey was used for assessment of burnout level. A questionnaire on basic socio-demographic characteristics (age, gender, marital status, habits, etc.) and academic performance (year of study, cumulative total average grade, length of study, housing, study financing, etc.) was used. The study included a total of 760 medical students (760/836 medical students; participation rate: 90.9%). Logistic regression analysis was used to determine odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results Significant gender differences were detected in prevalence of high risk of burnout syndrome (male students– 19.0% vs. female students– 12.8%, p = 0.024). A significant independent predictor of high risk for burnout syndrome in male medical students was study year (p for trend = 0.011), while in female medical students–study year (p for trend = 0.002) and use of sedatives (adjusted OR = 5.74, 95% CI = 1.96–16.77, p = 0.001). Conclusion Our results indicate the need to assess the risk of burnout syndrome at the very beginning of medical studies, in order to more effectively control the modifiable risk factors.
