Analysis of Relationships among Burnout, Academic Achievement, and Self-regulation

Abstract

This study examined the relationships among burnout, academic achievement, and self-regulation with two structural models. The participants were 383 undergraduates with different majors in a university in the western part of Turkey. The results showed that academic achievement was negatively associated with three dimensions of burnout and was positively associated with self-regulation. The results also confirmed that cynicism fully mediated the effect of emotional exhaustion on academic achievement and reduced academic efficacy; academic achievement partially mediated the effect of cynicism on reduced academic efficacy. In addition, analysis revealed that self-regulation partially mediated the effect of emotional exhaustion on cynicism and fully mediated reduced academic efficacy and academic achievement. These findings suggest that self-regulation skills had mediating role relationship between burnout and academic achievement. Implications of these findings are discussed in detail.

Transition from Secondary School to Medical School: The Role of Self-Study and Self-Regulated Learning Skills in Freshman Burnout

“…It has previously been observed that more highly self-regulated learners are more successful at school and experience less stress, 34 because these skills allow them to manage their emotions, thoughts, and actions in order to cope with and adapt to the challenges of higher education. 35 In our study, it was found that selfdirectedness at secondary and higher education, and strategies for learning and assessment at higher education were protective against academic burnout.

The Role of Work Experience in Studying and Career Development in Tourism: A Case Study of Tourism and Hospitality Students from Northern Poland

“…The term of burnout is also defined in the context of students: students' burnout is 'feeling exhausted because of study demands (exhaustion), having a cynical and detached attitude towards one's schoolwork (cynicism), and feeling incompetent as a student (reduced efficacy also known as reduced academic efficacy)' (Schaufeli, Martinez, Marques-Pinto, Salanova, & Bakker, 2002, p. 465). As the specialists highlight, burnout emerges gradually in the shape of emotional burnout, cynicism, and then low personal accomplishment (Duru, Duru, & Balkis, 2014).…”

Efektivitas Program Bimbingan Dan Konseling Kelompok Untuk Meningkatkan Regulasi Diri, Efikasi Diri, Dan Prestasi Akademik

“…Regulasi diri dalam belajar merujuk pada proses yang dilakukan peserta didik dalam mengaktifkan dan mempertahankan kognisi, afeksi dan perilaku yang secara sistematis diorientasikan pada pencapaian tujuan belajar tertentu (Zimmermann, Bonner & Kovach, 2009). Regulasi diri dalam belajar berkaitan erat dengan pencapaian prestasi akademik peserta didik di sekolah (Ben-Eliyahu & Linnenbrink-Garcia, 2015;Duru, Duru, & Balkis, 2014;Kitsantas, Winsler, & Huie, 2008;Mih & Mih, 2010). Meningkatnya kemampuan peserta didik dalam merencanakan, melaksanakan tugas-tugas akademik, melakukan evaluasi terhadap pencapaian tugas, kemampuan dan disiplin dalam manajemen waktu, serta kemampuan melakukan penyesuaian dalam mencapai tujuan akademik, berkaitan dengan meningkatnya performansi akademik peserta didik di sekolah (Burnette, O'Boyle, VanEpps, Pollack, & Finkel, 2013;Martin, Mithaug, Cox, Peterson, VanDyche, & Cash, 2003).…”
