Burnout is a significant concern for student-athletes, affecting both their academic and athletic performance. This study examined the developmental dynamics of school and sport burnout among Finnish student-athletes across upper secondary school and into early adulthood. Using a structural equation modeling framework with the Cholesky decomposition method, we found that higher levels of school burnout at the beginning of upper secondary school predicted higher levels of sport burnout at later time points. School burnout in the final year of upper secondary school was found to predict higher sport burnout in early adulthood. Although no differences were observed in the development of burnout between sexes or sport types, females experienced consistently higher levels of sport burnout than males, and individual sports athletes reported more burnout than those in team sports during their final year. Early interventions targeting school burnout are essential to reducing sport burnout in transitioning student-athletes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The impact of peer clique school burnout norms on adolescents' emotional adaptation is becoming increasingly prominent, but its underlying mechanisms remain unclear, especially in China where academic achievement is highly valued. The present study examined how clique burnout norms impact the relationship between school burnout, negative cognitive bias, and depressive symptoms. A total of 904 Chinese adolescents (57% boys; Mage = 12.73, SD = 0.43) participated in a two-wave longitudinal study (initiated in 2015, with approximately a 2-year interval). The results of multilevel models indicated that only in low clique burnout norms, adolescents with high school burnout at T1 would exhibit more negative cognitive bias and suffer from more depressive symptoms at T2, whereas the moderating effect was only observed in all-boys cliques. These findings reflect that a decrease in the overall level of burnout within a peer clique does not necessarily benefit every student, and the adaptation issues of students experiencing burnout still require attention even in a relatively healthy context.

Purpose: In recent years, the problem of college student suicide has become more and more serious, and depression has become the main root cause, triggering the attention of colleges and universities at home and abroad. Based on the burnout theory, this study explores the intrinsic connection between physical activity, depression and academic burnout. Through two questionnaire surveys, the cross-sectional relationship between physical activity level, depression and academic burnout was analyzed. A parallel mediation model was developed to compare the mediating effects of physical activity and depression. Meanwhile, physical activity grading was quantified to assess the effect on improving academic burnout and depression. Methods: A longitudinal study was conducted utilizing a physical education classroom with questionnaires measuring students' physical activity, school burnout, and depression. The test was administered twice, at the beginning and end of the semester, with 305 valid participants each time. SPSS 27.0 was used to process the data, perform descriptive statistics and correlation analyses, and explore the relationships between variables. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the mediating relationships and lagged effects of physical activity, school burnout, and depression. Finally, the amount of physical activity was graded to examine the effects of different intensities on school burnout and depression. Results: In a cross-sectional study at two time points, school burnout would serve as a mediator between college students' physical activity depression. We compared the lagged mediating effects of the two groups and found that school burnout (Time 2) had a more significant effect as a mediator. Finally, we graded the amount of physical activity according to the scale and found that only high-intensity physical activity affected depression (Time 2) through school burnout (Time 2). Conclusion: There was temporal stability between physical activity, depression, and school burnout among college students. School burnout fully mediated the relationship between physical activity and depression at different time points and acted as a fully lagged mediator. School burnout at time 2 mediated the relationship between physical activity and depression more than school burnout at time 1. High-intensity physical activity was more effective in reducing depression and school burnout. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract Burnout refers to characteristic stress symptoms resulting from chronic overload at the workplace. However, increased stress and strain are observed already in adolescents in the context of school. Previous work shows that school burnout is associated with female gender, immigration background, higher academic achievement, and increasing grade level. We aimed at replicating these findings and extending them by investigating subjective stressors in a survey among 502 German high school students. Higher burnout scores related to all previously reported predictors, as well as the subjective stressors “homework” and “pressure to perform at school”, explaining up to 24% of the variance in burnout scores. These findings provide valuable evidence for effective prevention measures, optimal timing and target groups to combat school burnout.

School burnout, defined as prolonged feelings of exhaustion, cynical attitude and inadequacy feelings towards schoolwork, can lead to mental problems during adolescence. To find effective ways to prevent burnout, this study examined the synergistic role of two positive personal resources, a stress-is-enhancing mindset and academic buoyancy in relation to school burnout dimensions. The participants were 932 Finnish middle-school 9th-grade (age = 14–15) students. The results of SEM revealed that academic buoyancy and stress-is-enhancing mindset were jointly negatively related to one dimension of school burnout, cynicism. However, the stress-is-enhancing mindset had an indirect effect on all dimensions (exhaustion, inadequacy and cynicism) via academic buoyancy. The findings highlight their joint effect and especially the role of academic buoyancy in relation to school burnout. The implications of the results to burnout prevention and stress theories are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Given the cultural and educational environment with Chinese characteristics, academic pressure on adolescents' meaning in life maybe weak or insignificant, which is contradictory with previous studies conducted in Western countries; yet the influencing mechanisms in the association of academic stress with the meaning in life is rarely explored. Method: A questionnaire survey was carried out among 616 adolescents aging from 12 to 18 in Jiangsu Province, China. The Macro process method was conducted to test the proposed theoretical model. Results: The direct effect of academic stress on adolescent meaning in life was not significant, whereas the indirect effects through school burnout and self‐compassion were significant. Specifically, adolescents who suffer from academic stress are more likely to report increased school burnout and reduced self‐compassion, which affects their meaning in life. Besides, grit significantly attenuated the influence of academic stress on school burnout. Discussion: There are indeed some psychosocial mechanisms including school burnout, self‐compassion, and grit in the relation between academic stress and the meaning in life. Those findings imply that the advancement and implementation of relevant intervention projects focusing on improving the meaning in life could be realized by reducing their academic stress and school burnout and promoting their ability of self‐compassion and grit.

This study contributes to understanding the long-term development of burnout dimensions across students in general upper secondary education and of support, engagement, and gender as factors that contribute to this development. The study followed Finnish academic track students (N = 210) over three years to examine the development of three burnout dimensions (exhaustion, cynicism, inadequacy) and the predictors of these dimensions using latent growth modeling. The findings revealed that cynicism and inadequacy increased, while exhaustion remained stable; moreover, the three dimensions were strongly interrelated. Perceived support negatively predicted initial burnout levels, affective engagement negatively affected exhaustion and inadequacy, and cognitive engagement negatively affected cynicism. Further, girls reported higher exhaustion and inadequacy than boys. The findings yielded new insight on the importance of perceived support as an antecedent of burnout – sufficient and continuous support can help to reduce and prevent burnout among these students.

Smartphone addiction adversely affects adolescent psychological wellbeing. However, little is known about the role of academic procrastination and school burnout in this relationship. The main objective of the current study was to examine the associations between smartphone addiction and psychological wellbeing, a multiple mediation analysis that included academic procrastination and school burnout. The participants consisted of 409 adolescents whose ages ranged between 13 and 19 years (Mage = 16.024, SD = 1.674). Analyses revealed the serial mediating role of academic procrastination and school burnout between smartphone addiction and psychological wellbeing was accepted. Overall, these results suggested that the smartphone addiction is a risk factor for adolescents' psychological wellbeing and that academic procrastination and school burnout also increase this risk.

School dropout intention and reduced academic achievement are two crucial indicators of school dropout risk. Past studies have shown that school performance plays a mediating role in the models explaining dropout intentions. School burnout and test anxiety have been identified as predictors of both academic performance and school dropout. However, their combined effects on the intention to leave school have not yet been investigated. We aimed to address this gap by exploring the predictors of school dropout intention in a sample of 205 French secondary school students. Structural equation modelling analyses have revealed the specific facets of school burnout (devaluation) and test anxiety (cognitive interference) that explained the school dropout intentions and academic performance. Grade Point Average (GPA) was a mediator of the effects of these variables on the intention to drop out of school. The findings highlight the need to acknowledge assessments as a school stress factor that could contribute to health problems and intentions to drop out of school. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Adolescents' well‐being at school is positively affected by social support from parents, teachers, and peers and negatively affected by academic stress. However, little is known about how specific academic stressors are related to study‐related well‐being profiles. This study used a person‐centered approach to identify the profiles of high school students based on their school burnout (i.e., exhaustion and cynicism) and engagement levels to examine their associated levels of perceived academic stress, social support, and sociodemographic characteristics. Using cluster analysis on a sample of 540 high school students (67.8% girls), we identified five profiles labeled "Engaged" (22.4%), "Relaxed" (18.9%), "Overextended" (25.6%), "Disengaged" (17.6%), and "Burned out" (15.4%). The "Engaged" and "Relaxed" groups experienced similar levels of perceived social support, but the "Engaged" students showed higher academic stress levels. The "Overextended" group displayed high academic stress with lower social support, while the "Disengaged" group showed low stress with low social support. Finally, the "Burned out" group displayed the highest academic stress and the lowest perceived support. Results are discussed within the demands−resources model of school burnout and clinical implications are presented for each profile. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

School-related stress and burnout can have serious consequences for students’ well-being and academic outcomes. However, there are few studies that assess the prevalence of school burnout, especially in Germany. The present study aims to determine the percentage of N = 1117 high school students who are likely to suffer from school burnout—also with regard to differences in gender and grade level. For this purpose, two different cut-off criteria are compared. Prior to this, the psychometric quality of the MBI-SuS adapted to the school context is examined. The validity and reliability of the three-factor MBI-SuS could be confirmed. Scalar measurement invariance was found for grade level but only partially for gender. The overall prevalence of school burnout of 20.9% found with the common cut-off criterion fits international prevalences, whereas the prevalence of 4.6% (determined with our recommended content-related cut-off criterion) is in line with observations from clinical practice. Depending on the cut-off value, girls suffer slightly more from school burnout, but no differences were found with respect to grade level. Results indicate that a substantial proportion of students are at risk for school burnout, highlighting the importance of prevention and intervention. Criteria for cut-off values should be applied with caution.

School burnout is a growing problem among university students. This two-wave longitudinal study examined the mediating effects of academic self-efficacy, grit, and academic resilience in the relationship between academic perfectionism and helicopter parenting, and school burnout in university students based on the Theory of Self- vs. Externally-Regulated Learning (SRL vs. ERL), and Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). A total of 481 college students completed measurements at Time 1 (T1) and Time 2 (T2) (Mage = 22.2; 61.5% female, 38.5% male). For analysis, the SPSS version 26 and Mplus version 7.0 were used. The results reveal that academic self-efficacy, grit, and academic resilience at Time 2 mediate the relationship between academic perfectionism and helicopter parent attitude at Time 1 and school burnout at Time 2. These findings reveal the key role of self-efficacy, grit, and academic resilience in reducing school burnout. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

School burnout syndrome is typically defined through exhaustion from academic demands, cynicism toward school, and feelings of inadequacy as a student, identically as occupational burnout syndrome. This approach neglects the context of education, while equating it with formal employment, overlooking differences between the status of a student and a worker. Therefore, this study aimed at better understanding diverse aspects of school burnout and its contextual risk factors in order to provide a more comprehensive conceptualization of this phenomenon. Methodologically relying on the grounded theory approach and conceptually on Bronfenbrenner's ecological model, we conducted and analyzed 25 semi-structured individual interviews with Serbian secondary school students that exhibited high scores on the School Burnout Inventory. Five interconnected main themes emerged: Loss of meaning, Intense emotional reactions and states, Perceived incompetence triggered by comparison with classmates, Guilt-induced withdrawal, and Impaired physical health. External factors included Unsupportive and pressuring family and Disengaged teachers. Finally, alongside advocating for preventative measures, such as educational policy and practice changes, we offer a novel theoretical conceptualization of school burnout syndrome. We also argue that the emergence of school burnout syndrome is not an individual's collapse stemming from inner limitations, but a symptom of systemic deficiencies within the educational system.

This study investigated the relationships between maternal, paternal, teacher, and peer social support, behavioral engagement, and school burnout among Finnish lower secondary student athletes (n = 209) and regular students (n = 156) using crosssectional questionnaire data collected in Grade 7. Structural equation modeling revealed positive associations between social support and student behavioral engagement, and negative connections between social support and behavioral engagement and school burnout. Behavioral engagement mediated the association between maternal and peer support and school burnout, and teacher support was the strongest direct predictor of school burnout. Student athletes displayed stronger associations between behavioral engagement and school burnout in comparison to regular students. The results contribute to our understanding of the interplay between individual and environmental resources in shaping student athletes' and regular students' well-being in lower secondary school.

Adolescence is a critical period characterized by more frequent interpersonal interactions, which may lead to inevitable interpersonal stress. Given the negative impacts of interpersonal stress on adolescents' development, this study attempts to explore how interpersonal stress might influence psychological distress and Internet addiction among Chinese adolescents. 1278 middle and high school students aged 12–18 years old participated in this study. The results showed a positive direct effect of interpersonal stress on psychological distress, as adolescents exposed to a higher level of interpersonal stress were found to have more psychological distress. This direct effecting path was mediated by school burnout. Additionally, the relationship between interpersonal stress and Internet addiction was also mediated by school burnout. This study provides insight into how interpersonal stress affects psychological and behavioral outcomes among Chinese adolescents. The findings could guide policymakers and professional counselors involved with adolescents struggling to treat psychological distress and Internet addiction. Highlights: There is a lack of understanding as to the underlying mechanisms of how interpersonal stress leads to negative outcomes. This study extended the analysis of Chinese literature beyond academic stress to include diverse sources of interpersonal stressors in adolescents. This study established a comprehensive framework in which school burnout mediated the association between interpersonal stress and adolescents' psychological distress. This study demonstrated a framework in which school burnout mediated the relationship between interpersonal stress and Internet addiction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating role of setting life goals in the relationship between emotional autonomy and school burnout. The mediation model was tested on 304 high school students [156 (51.3%) females, 148 (48.7%) males; Mage = 16.12, SD = 1.20]. According to the results, we found that school burnout had negative significant correlations with emotional autonomy and setting life goals. On the other hand, there was a significant positive correlation between emotional autonomy and setting life goals. The analysis results indicated that setting life goals had a mediating role between emotional autonomy and school burnout. Accordingly, emotional autonomy promoted setting life goals and contributed to mitigating school burnout. In this respect, this study points out that some positive emotional factors have a protective function against school burnout. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: The present study aims to distinguish school burnout from depressive symptoms in late adolescents between 17 and 21 years old by exploring their underlying early maladaptive schemas (EMS). Methods: The cross-sectional sample (T1) consisted of 514 secondary and higher education students between 17 and 21 years old (Mage = 19.06 (1.10), 80.9% female). Five months later (T2), 190 adolescents participated in the follow-up measurement (Mage = 19.45 (1.18), 81.6% female). Results: Positive correlations were found between all EMS and school burnout symptoms. When controlling for school burnout symptoms at T1, only the EMS `emotional deprivation', `mistrust', `defectiveness', `social isolation', `failure', `enmeshment', and `emotional inhibition' displayed significant positive associations with school burnout at T2. The EMS `mistrust', `defectiveness' and `failure' showed relations to both school burnout and depressive symptoms. Backwards linear regressions showed that the EMS `vulnerability to harm/illness' and `insufficient self-control' were uniquely related to school burnout symptoms when controlling for depressive symptoms, while the EMS `dependence', `emotional deprivation', `self-sacrifice' and `unrelenting standards' were uniquely related to depressive symptoms while controlling for school burnout symptoms. Limitations: The gender-unbalanced sample, reduced longitudinal sample size, sole use of self-report measures, and high comorbidity between school burnout and depressive symptoms may have hampered the results. Conclusions: EMS play an important role in the development of school burnout symptoms. The results point towards transdiagnostic cognitive-focused treatment techniques with attention to disorder-specific schemas to tackle school burnout symptoms. More (longitudinal) research is needed to corroborate these initial findings.

AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of laughter yoga on hope and school burnout among secondary school, (eighth grade) students. METHODS: This study was a pretest, posttest, parallel-group, randomized control trial to evaluate the effect of laughter yoga on hope and school burnout in eighth-grade students. The population of the study consisted of 60 eighth-grade middle school students (intervention group n=30 and control group n=30). Laughter yoga was practiced face-to-face with the intervention group twice a week for 35-40 minutes and in six sessions in total. The protocol of the study was registered with the number NCT05742308 (ClinicalTrials.gov). RESULTS: After laughter yoga, there was a statistically significant difference between the intervention (17.27 ± 8.76) and control (22.90 ± 7.08) groups in the mean scores of the school burnout scale (p < .05) and a statistically significant difference between the intervention (29.28 ± 5.66) and control (22.28 ± 5.65) groups in the mean scores of the children's hope scale (p < .05). CONCLUSION: School health nursing practices have an important role in the process of acquiring positive health behaviors in school-age children. They are able to use evidence-based practices to reduce student burnout and improve hope. Based on the results of the study, school health nurses can use laughter yoga to increase hope levels and decrease burnout levels in eighth-grade students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The current study investigated the longitudinal associations among helicopter parenting, self-control, and school burnout over a one-year period in 416 Chinese adolescents (Time 1 Mage= 16.23, SD = 0.77). Perceived maternal helicopter parenting was significantly associated with lower levels of self-control and higher levels of school burnout experienced by adolescents at both time points. After controlling for the autoregressive effect of self-control at Time 1, adolescents' perceptions of maternal helicopter parenting at Time 1 predicted lower levels of self-control at Time 2. Perceived maternal helicopter parenting at Time 1 did not predict school burnout at Time 2 after the autoregressive effect of school burnout at Time 1 was considered. Earlier levels of self-control predicted higher levels of school burnout at Time 2 even after the autoregressive effect of school burnout at Time 1 was considered. By contrast, earlier levels of school burnout of adolescents did not predict self-control ability longitudinally. Taken together, these results support a unidirectional hypothesis that helicopter parenting contributes to school burnout through lowering individuals' competence in self-regulation. Perceived maternal warmth did not moderate the associations between maternal helicopter parenting with self-control and school burnout, which suggests that helicopter parenting may still be maladaptive for academic-related outcomes even it is perceived to be warm.

The primary objective of this two-wave longitudinal study was to determine whether peer status or negative cognition could account for the well-established relationships between peer victimization and school burnout. In total, 655 students from two junior high schools (Mage = 12.7 years) were assessed at two time points over a 12-month interval. Baseline measures included self-reported and peer-nominated peer victimization, self-reported negative cognition and school burnout, and peer-nominated peer status. After one year, school burnout was again measured. Using a longitudinal mediating model, it was found that adolescents who perceived peer victimization at baseline were more likely to experience school burnout one year later owing to increased elevated negative cognition (mediation effect β = 0.09, 95% bias-corrected bootstrap = [0.06–0.14]). This effect was also moderated by peer status, such that among adolescents with lower peer status, baseline peer victimization was associated with significantly higher rates of school burnout after 12 months (β = 0.22, p <.01), whereas the same was not true for those with high peer status. The current study will help educators better understand the potential mechanism by which they could alleviate adolescent student school burnout by reducing the cognitive bias of bullied adolescents with poor peer status.

Despite the importance of school connectedness and bullying victimization in students' school burnout, to our knowledge, very few studies have analyzed their reciprocal associations, and most of them have used cross-sectional designs. So, the nature and directions of these relations have not been established yet. The general aim of this study was to address this gap by testing a longitudinal model of the association between the mentioned variables in a group of Italian students. The participants are 363 students from Italian secondary schools (34% females; Mage = 13.35, SD = 1.47), who took part in three waves of data collection. One hundred and eighty-four students attended middle school (45% females; Mage = 12.01, SD = 0.46), and 179 students attended high school (22% females; Mage = 14.62, SD = 0.836). The adolescents filled out a questionnaire containing self-report measurements of studied variables three times, with an interval of 6 months. At both school levels, the results show the reciprocal and longitudinal role of school connectedness in reducing burnout, and of school burnout in reducing the sense of connectedness to school, both directly and indirectly. On the contrary, bullying victimization is not longitudinally associated with school burnout, whereas it negatively predicts the level of students' connectedness to school. The study findings have revealed the importance of considering longitudinal and reciprocal associations among school burnout, connectedness, and bullying victimization, and are discussed referring to their implications for research and intervention efforts aimed at promoting students' school well-being.

This review study is prompted by an assumption that secondary and high school pupils are more sensitive to school burnout. The objective of this paper is to evaluate burnout studies to determine the concept of school burnout as well as the elements that impact it. This review incorporates three years of studies on the link between school burnout and secondary and high school student performance as well as recognized cognitive and emotional factors that account for this association. Previous reviews have found moderate correlations between these variables; however, few have discussed the mediating and moderating factors that influence this connection. Systematic searches of psychiatric, educational, and pertinent internet sources were done in December 2022 for research studying school burnout and performance in secondary and high school demographics released between 2019 and 2022. Thirty-eight papers were eligible. The findings from the review of these studies revealed that school burnout was modestly connected to performance. In addition, several mediating and moderating variables, such as emotional tiredness, academic pressure, and family participation, were discovered. However, due to the lack of longitudinal studies analyzed, additional research into how these variables interact over time is required to prove causality and discover the dynamic connection between school burnout, performance, and the motivational and cognitive factors that influence it.

School burnout is a worldwide issue that affects adolescents at every academic level. Despite the significant impact of this issue on adolescents' mental health and academic performance, few studies have examined its influence on mind wandering and its underlying mechanisms. This research endeavors to address this knowledge gap by examining the mediating role of Internet addiction in the relationship between school burnout and mind wandering and the moderating role of resilience among 2329 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 14.9 years, SD = 1.73) through an online questionnaire assessment. Participants completed measures of school burnout, Internet addiction, resilience, and mind wandering, which were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with SPSS 23.0 and Mplus 8.0. Results demonstrated that school burnout was positively linked with mind wandering, while Internet addiction mediated this relationship. Additionally, resilience moderated the association between Internet addiction and mind wandering. These findings significantly improve our comprehension of the consequences of mind wandering and offer valuable insights into possible intervention approaches for adolescents experiencing this phenomenon.

In an effort to explain the factors contributing to the development of student burnout, a construct that has received attention in relation to academic outcomes, including burnout, is emotion regulation. Further, attachment theory has been used to explore the variations in the use of particular emotion regulation strategies, and attachment has received support as a contributing factor. The aim of the study is to explore the role of attachment security and emotion regulation strategies associated with student burnout symptoms in a sample of 602 Romanian children and adolescents (55% female) aged 8–16 (M = 10.45) from 18 schools. A secondary objective was to explore the gender differences in burnout symptoms. The results show that attachment security negatively predicts student burnout symptoms. Further, a higher attachment security positively predicts the use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies, which, in turn, are negatively related to student burnout. Emotion regulation strategies mediate the relationship between attachment and burnout symptoms. No gender differences have been identified. The study has practical implications for both parents and specialists, bringing to attention the importance of secure attachment in children, which could further encourage the use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies.

Abstract Due to its potential to address low achievement, high dropout rates, and misbehavior among students, school engagement has become an important topic in contemporary developmental psychology and educational research. Although there is a wealth of literature on the causes and effects of student engagement, the current understanding of how student engagement varies in response to different teaching styles is limited. This study examined the engagement and burnout profiles of elementary school pupils (N = 798; 51% females; Mage = 11.54, SDage = 0.72) and the interactions between those profiles, students’ characteristics and their perceptions of instructional behaviors (e.g., supporting criticism, suppressing criticism & independent viewpoints, intruding). Latent profile analysis revealed five types of profiles: moderately burned out, slightly burned out, moderately engaged, highly engaged, and highly burned out. Follow-up logistic regression analysis found that students clustered into engagement groups were likely to report higher autonomy support from teachers, especially when teachers permit criticism and independent thinking from students. In contrast, students clustered into burned out profiles were more likely to rate teacher strategies as autonomy suppressive. This became more obvious when instructors imposed meaningless and uninteresting activities. Taken together, this study indicated that autonomy-supportive teaching behaviors are pivotal in understanding student engagement and school burnout. The significance of the findings was addressed, along with implications and limitations.

The current study investigated the relationship between regulatory focus, perfectionism, and school burnout. Regulatory focus theory posits two self-regulatory styles: promotion focus and prevention focus. Similarly, perfectionism also consists of two components: perfectionistic strivings and perfectionistic concerns. Taken together, promotion focus and perfectionistic strivings commonly show an approach orientation, while prevention focus and perfectionistic concerns demonstrate an avoidance orientation. In school settings, a plethora of research has investigated the relationship between perfectionism and school burnout, while little research on the relationship between regulatory focus and school burnout has been conducted. Given that regulatory focus and perfectionism share a commonality, both concepts need to be examined together to predict school burnout. As such, the purpose of this paper was to extend current research by examining school burnout from both perspectives. The current study investigated the relationship between regulatory focus, perfectionism and school burnout (as measured by inadequacy, exhaustion, and cynicism). In this study, 200 undergraduate students answered a questionnaire. Then, correlation, hierarchical regression and moderation analyses were conducted. The results indicated that promotion focus negatively predicted inadequacy, while prevention focus positively predicted all three subscales of school burnout. Moreover, perfectionistic strivings positively predicted exhaustion and perfectionistic concerns positively predicted exhaustion, cynicism, and inadequacy. Limitations and future directions are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this longitudinal study was to examine how adolescents’ school burnout profiles relate to perceived learning difficulties and delayed graduation in upper secondary education. Adolescents (N = 485, mean age 15.7 years) living in a mid-sized city in Finland completed questionnaires during their upper secondary education in either the academic or vocational track. A person-oriented approach was used, and the results imply that students with perceived learning difficulties are at a higher risk of school burnout than those who do not report learning difficulties. Adolescents with a higher likelihood of belonging to the ‘at risk of school burnout’ profile also had a higher risk of delayed graduation than students in other profiles, as well as those without perceived learning difficulties. In addition, students in the vocational track were more likely to belong to the ‘Not at risk of school burnout’ profile than to the other school burnout profiles. Girls had an increased risk of belonging to one of the three profiles indicating burnout than to the ‘not at risk of school burnout’ profile. These findings suggest that perceived learning difficulties affect adolescents’ lives longitudinally; thus, better identification of these difficulties and more effective support are needed.

Background: Numerous prior studies have been tested the associations between stress, coping and burnout. In fact, all three above mentioned constructs are inevitably connected with each other according to many psychological theories. Most of them, however, focused on job-stress related context and were conducted among university students or adults. Much less frequently the specific coping techniques and its relation to burnout symptoms among high school students were analyzed. Objective: The main purpose of the current study was to investigate the associations between coping strategies and burnout syndrome among late adolescents. Secondly we tested if student burnout is a function of gender and age. Additionally, we also tested the cross-cultural validity of student burnout scale (SSBS) by Aypay. Methods: 761 students (35.8% boys), aged 17-19 years participated in the study. Results: The results indicate that student burnout is associated positively with poor coping strategies and negatively with searching for support and active coping strategies. Regression models revealed that higher avoiding behaviors and helplessness, and lower active coping are significant predictors of school burnout, explaining 13% of its variance. The final model consisting of coping strategies and sociodemographic characteristics (age and gender) explained 20% of variance in the SSBS score. According to our studies girls are more prone to develop school burnout syndrome than boys, and older students are more burned out than younger ones. The findings also confirmed that the SSBS scale may be applied in the Polish context as it has good psychometric properties. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the avoiding behaviors as well as lack of active coping may play a pivotal role in school burnout among youth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines the mediating role of school burnout and depression in the relationship between academic stress and sleep quality. The participant group of the study consists of 353 adolescents between the ages of 13-18 who are continuing their high school education (185 girls and 158 boys). The study data were collected using the Academic-Based Stress Inventory, Sleep Quality Scale, School Burnout Scale, and Kutcher Adolescent Depression Scale. Correlation analysis, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to analyze the data. The results from testing the model have confirmed the tested mediation model. The study has found academic stress, depression, and school burnout to have direct effects on sleep quality, with academic stress also having an indirect effect on sleep quality through school burnout and depression within the scope of a model. The study also discusses the results in line with the obtained findings and makes suggestions for the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, the relationships between school climate, school belonging, and school burnout were examined based on the views of secondary school students. 667 middle school students from Dörtyol district of Hatay, selected with a stratified sample, participated in the study. School Climate Scale, School Belonging Scale, and School Burnout Scale were used to collect research data. Descriptive statistics, regression analysis, path analysis, and Sobel test were used to analyze the data. The findings of the study show that secondary school students' perceptions of school climate and school belonging are at a high level; their levels of school burnout are medium. Again, the research findings show that there are significant relationships between school climate, school belonging, and school burnout. School climate and school belonging are significant predictors of school burnout. School belonging has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between school climate and school burnout. School climate, which has a significant impact on the school burnout of secondary school students, has this effect directly or indirectly through school belonging.

This study aimed to contribute to a holistic analysis of the effect of school burnout on academic achievement and well-being in high school students. For this purpose, a structural equation model made up of variables, including self-regulation, student-teacher relationships, peer relationships, family involvement to school, school burnout, academic achievement, and well-being, was tested. The sample of study consisted of 866 high school students from seven different types of high schools. The data of study were collected using a set of eight scales consisting of the Personal Information Form, Self-Regulation Scale, the Friendship Qualities Scale, the Self-Determination Theory-Based Student-Teacher Relationship Questionnaire-High School Form, the Perceived Parental and Teacher Academic Involvement Scale, the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey, the Academic Achievement (GPA), and the EPOCH Measure of Well-Being (EPOCH). Total six hypotheses were tested with the hypothetical model established within the scope of the study. As a result of the analysis, it was found that all of the hypotheses regarding the proposed hypothetical model were accepted, and the model was confirmed. The findings of the study revealed that each of the variables, namely, self-regulation, student-teacher relationships, peer relationships, and family involvement to school, had a direct and negative predictor effect on school burnout.

School burnout has been the subject of research as the form of professional burnout seen in students who continue their education life. In the relevant literature, it is seen that the factors that increase or decrease school burnout and the negativities caused by school burnout are examined. However, it is noteworthy that the issue of coping with school burnout, which is a common problem that almost every student experiences at certain times in their education life, is not addressed. In this review study, the concept of school burnout was first explained, and then the concepts of coping and coping with school burnout were discussed.

The paper is devoted to the adaptation of the School Burnout Inventory (SBI), developed by Finnish researchers in line with the tradition of studying the phenomenon of burnout. The concept of burnout of school student and a brief history of its study abroad and in the Russian Federation, as well as key results of empirical research are presented. The procedure of the instrument adaptation on a sample of 3197 Russian schoolchildren is described. The questionnaire has a three-factor structure and includes three scales: Exhaustion; Cynicism; Inadequacy. The analysis confirms that the tool has good reliability, structural and convergent validity and can be used in studies of school well-being/disadvantage. Possible directions of application of the questionnaire are discussed.

Background: Current data show an increase in stress among youth since the COVID-19 pandemic, raising the question of the measures to be put in place to limit it. Aim: The aim of this study is to measure the prevalence of burnout and the different risk and protective factors of burnout among students and to compare the mean scores obtained with those collected in a similar sample in 2014. Method: Perceived health, school burnout, and the different risk and protective factors among students were measured by self-reported questionnaires among a sample of 184 students (11–13 years old). Results: The results indicate significantly higher burnout scores than in 2014. Different variables were predictive of school burnout: 1. At the individual level, a low academic achievement in mathematics, somatic symptoms, and the expressed stress; 2. At the interpersonal level, lack of support from peers, teachers, and parents and a negative classroom climate; 3. At the pandemic level, the increased workload related to the consequences of COVID-19. The factors with the greatest impact are confidence in the future, perceived stress, parental supports, and mathematics results. Conclusions: An intervention program targeting these four factors among burned out students would be relevant to set up in order to reduce its prevalence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
