Ο πληθυσμός των φοιτητών έχει αναδειχθεί από πολλούς ερευνητές ως ομάδα «υψηλού κινδύνου» για την εκδήλωση συμπτωμάτων στρες και εξουθένωσης κατά την διάρκεια των σπουδών τους. Σκοπός της παρούσας έρευνας ήταν να διερευνήσει πιθανούς παράγοντες που προκαλούν στρες στους Έλληνες φοιτητές κατά τη διάρκεια των σπουδών τους, να εξετάσει τις στρατηγικές διαχείρισης που χρησιμοποιούν προκειμένου να ανταπεξέλθουν στις στρεσογόνες καταστάσεις που βιώνουν και να καταγράψει τα επίπεδα ακαδημαϊκής εξουθένωσης. Επίσης, στόχος της έρευνας ήταν να καταγράψει πιθανή επίδραση δημογραφικών χαρακτηριστικών, όπως φύλο, σχολή φοίτησης, έτος σπουδών στην ακαδημαϊκή επίδοση και στα επίπεδα στρες και εξουθένωσης των φοιτητών. 2.008 φοιτητές διαφορετικών Σχολών και Ελληνικών Πανεπιστημίων συμμετείχαν στην έρευνα. Ως εργαλείο συλλογής δεδομένων χρησιμοποιήθηκαν: το Ερωτηματολόγιο Στρες για Φοιτητές (Students Stress Survey questionnaire), το Ερωτηματολόγιο Επαγγελματικής Εξουθένωσης για Φοιτητές (Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey), το Ερωτηματολόγιο Διαχείρισης Στρες για Φοιτητές (Student Coping Instrument), καθώς και ερωτηματολόγιο δημογραφικών στοιχείων.40 πιθανοί Διαπροσωπικοί, Ενδοατομικοί, Ακαδημαϊκοί & Περιβαλλοντικοί Παράγοντες Στρες μελετήθηκαν. Οι πιο συχνά αναφερόμενοι παράγοντες στρες ήταν: «αυξημένος φόρτος μελέτης – εργασιών», «ανάληψη καινούργιων ευθυνών – υποχρεώσεων», «μικρότεροι βαθμοί από τους αναμενόμενους», «αναζήτηση για μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές / αναζήτηση εργασίας, «οικονομικές δυσκολίες». Στατιστικά σημαντική διαφορά υπήρχε μεταξύ ανδρών και γυναικών με τις γυναίκες να εμφανίζουν υψηλότερα επίπεδα στρες. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας έδειξαν ότι οι τελειόφοιτοι φοιτητές βιώνουν υψηλότερα επίπεδα στρες σε σχέση με τους πρωτοετείς φοιτητές. Καταγράφηκαν επίσης στατιστικά σημαντικές διαφορές μεταξύ φοιτητών διαφορετικών Σχολών, με τους φοιτητές Θετικών Επιστημών να βιώνουν υψηλότερα επίπεδα στρες και εξουθένωσης, σε αντίθεση με τους φοιτητές Ανθρωπιστικών, Κοινωνικών και Νομικών Επιστημών που φαίνεται να διαχειρίζονται καλύτερα τις στρεσογόνες καταστάσεις που βιώνουν κατά τη διάρκεια των σπουδών τους. Η ακαδημαϊκή επίδοση των φοιτητών φαίνεται να σχετίζεται με το στρες και συγκεκριμένα οι φοιτητές με χαμηλότερη ακαδημαϊκή επίδοση φαίνεται να βιώνουν περισσότερο στρες συγκριτικά με φοιτητές που έχουν υψηλότερες ακαδημαϊκές επιδόσεις.Τα ευρήματα της έρευνας τονίζουν την ανάγκη για περαιτέρω διερεύνηση φαινομένων ακαδημαϊκού στρες και εξουθένωσης σε φοιτητές. Σημαντικές πληροφορίες που πιθανώς θα προκύψουν από τα αποτελέσματα τέτοιων ερευνών θα μπορούσαν να χρησιμοποιηθούν από τις διοικήσεις των Πανεπιστημίων καθώς και το διδακτικό προσωπικό, προκειμένου να εφαρμοστούν προγράμματα συμβουλευτικής φοιτητών με σκοπό την αποτελεσματική αντιμετώπιση φαινομένων στρες και εξουθένωσης σε φοιτητές Ελληνικών Πανεπιστημίων.

The Impact

Objectives: The aim of this ecological study was to investigate what the impact of digital learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic was on the burnout and overall mental health (MH) of medical students. Background: During the unprecedented era of the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of countries worldwide adopted very strong measures. Universities closed their doors, and education continued through digital learning lectures. Methods: An anonymous questionnaire was administered to all 189 eligible candidates before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mental health was assessed via the MH domain of the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and burnout with the Maslach Burnout Inventory—Student Survey (MBI-SS). Results: The overall response rate was 81.5%. The overall burnout prevalence did not differ significantly between the two periods (pre-COVID-19 18.1% vs. COVID-19 18.2%). However, the burnout prevalence dropped significantly in year 4 (pre-COVID-19 40.7% vs. COVID-19 16.7%, p = 0.011), whereas it increased significantly in year 6 (pre-COVID-19 27.6% vs. COVID-19 50%, p = 0.01). When looking at each MBI-SS dimension separately, we found that emotional exhaustion decreased significantly in year 4 but increased in year 6, and cynicism increased in all years. The overall MH deteriorated significantly between the two periods (pre-COVID-19 58.8 ± 21.6 vs. COVID-19 48.3 ± 23, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Digital learning in medical studies carries significant risks. Not only does the MH deteriorate, but cynicism levels also increase. Emotional exhaustion was found to increase particularly in final year students, who struggle with the lack of clinical experience just before they start working as qualified junior doctors.

Order Factor

College student burnout has been assessed mainly with the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). However, the construct's definition and measurement with MBI has drawn several criticisms and new inventories have been suggested for the evaluation of the syndrome. A redefinition of the construct of student burnout is proposed by means of a structural equation model, reflecting burnout as a second order factor defined by factors from the MBI–Student Survey (MBI-SS); the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory–Student Survey (CBI-SS) and the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory–Student Survey (OLBI–SS). Standardized regression weights from Burnout to Exhaustion and Cynicism from the MBI-SS scale, Personal Burnout and Studies Related Burnout from the CBI, and Exhaustion and Disengagement from OLBI, show that these factors are strong manifestations of students' burnout. For college students, the burnout construct is best defined by two dimensions described as “physical and psychological exhaustion” and “cynicism and disengagement.”

Este estudio tuvo por objetivo establecer la asociación de algunas variables de salud mental (burnout académico, ansiedad rasgo-estado y depresión) sobre la propensión al abandono de los estudios en estudiantes universitarios. Estudio de tipo observacional, analítico, trasversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 252 estudiantes, distribuidos así: 23% (59) del programa de Enfermería, 39% (99) del programa de Medicina y 37% (94) del programa de Psicología, evaluados a través del Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey, Ansiedad de Rasgo y de Estado, Inventario de Depresión de Beck, y cuestionario de Propensión al Abandono. Los resultados indican que la ansiedad estado (OR= 2.944 [1.712 – 5.065], p= 0.000) predice la propensión al abandono en universitarios. Se concluye que la ansiedad estado es un factor de riesgo para la propensión al abandono, por tanto, se recomienda el fortalecimiento de los recursos personales desde la autoeficacia y la incorporación de la familia desde el inicio de la vida universiaria.

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 Relationship

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.

Introduction: Effective management and prevention of widespread burnout among medical students in Hungary require thorough understanding of its relations to coping strategies, which lacks sufficient data. Aim: To explore the prevalence of burnout and its relations to coping strategies among medical students. Method: Cross-sectional study with 292 participants. Burnout was assessed by the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey. Coping strategies were evaluated by the Folkman–Lazarus Ways of Coping Questionnaire and questions about health-maintenance behaviours. Associations between burnout and coping strategies were explored with linear regression analyses. Results: The prevalence of high-level burnout was 25–56%. Both problem-focused coping and support-seeking were protective factors of exhaustion and cynicism, however, they predicted reduced personal accomplishment. Emotion-focused coping predicted exhaustion and cynicism and correlated negatively with reduced personal accomplishment. Health-maintenance behaviours were protective factors for exhaustion and predicted reduced personal accomplishment. Conclusions: Deployment of coping strategies that target the most prevalent burnout dimension may improve effective management of burnout.
