“…Furthermore, teachers' gender and age were not associated with their scores on either of the two measures of their emotional appraisal. Previous research has yielded conflicting results with respect to the associations between burnout and socio-demographic variables, suggesting that further latent variables may be at play in these relationships [77,78]. With regard to teachers' sense of ineffectiveness, while it was significantly associated with the other dimensions of burnout as expected, it was found to play a different role to exhaustion and cynicism in relation to emotional appraisal [33].…”

Background:Teachers are at-risk of burnout due to continuous emotional demands. Existing research suggests that there is a strong relationship between the burnout phenomenon and teachers' propensity to experience unpleasant emotions. Objective:The current study examined whether teachers' levels of burnout affect the process by which they appraise school-life events that elicit negative emotions. Methods:Participants were 316 school teachers. Teachers' appraisal of both students' negative emotion intensity (SAE) and their own negative emotion intensity (TAE) was evaluated via the Emotional Competence Questionnaire. Teachers' burnout levels were measured using the Maslach Burnout Inventory. The main hypothesis was tested by using SEM to assess a full model. Results:The findings suggest that burnout compromises teachers' appraisal of both their students' and their own negative emotion intensity. Conclusion:We discuss how our main findings may be interpreted and explore their implications for educational settings.

“…From various studies, it seems that students are the most important factor influencing the experience of being a proper teacher (Bahia et al, 2013;Helleve, 2010;McNally, 2010;K. Smith, 2014;Van Droogenbroeck et al, 2014).…”

This paper is based on a study of fourteen Norwegian K-12 teachers who have been violated by students in schools. One key theme emerged during the process of analysis: the threat to the teachers' self. This threat appears to be intensified due to lack of support. The findings in this small-scale Norwegian study indicate that student-to-teacher violation can have a serious impact on teachers' perceptions of their individual and professional self. The findings disclose that the teachers' self is affected leading to changed, weakened and disrupted experience of teachers' self-understanding. This knowledge may influence how teachers can continue working when critical incidents occur.Keywords: violence against teachers, teacher identity, school violence, loss of self, Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA), work-place violence.

“…Studies showed that occupational groups that were in face-to-face and close communication with individuals (such as nurses and teachers) were particularly vulnerable for burnout and that teachers experienced the highest level of burnout (Droogenbroeck, Spruyt, & Vanroelen, 2014). In Turkey, a number of studies on burnout were conducted specifically with teachers, who, by the nature of their work, are in close interaction with individuals (Evci & Aylar, 2017).…”

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the burnout levels of music teachers and their personalities. The research consisted of 278 music teachers who were selected from various places throughout Turkey via subjective, convenience sampling method. For data collection, the 'Personal Information Form', 'Adjective Based Personality Test' and 'Maslach Burnout Scale' were used. The research involved both quantitative and qualitative dimensions. The data were analyzed by quantitative t-test, multiple regression analysis and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Data for the qualitative dimension of the research were obtained from semi-structured interviews conducted with 5 music teachers. Negative, significant relationships were determined between extroversion, conscientiousness, agreeableness, openness and general burnout, while a positive, significant relationship was determined between neuroticism and general burnout. The burnout variable was found to have a statistically significant effect on the openness, neuroticism and conscientiousness dimensions of the personality types. The effects of conscientiousness and openness dimensions were not, however, found to be significant. The music teachers who had characteristics of extroversion and conscientiousness were found to have higher levels of burnout if they have the characteristics of neuroticism that reduce their exhaustion. The findings of the research show that the effect of personality types on burnout is important.
