The External and Internal Factors of Academic Burnout

Abstract

Academic burn-out is a common phenomenon among students. Because of the long-term academic pressure and burden, students feel exhausted, lose enthusiasm for their studies and activities, and hold a negative attitude towards learning. This study aimed to research academic burn-out and summarize the influencing factors of academic burn-out. The present study divides the influencing factors into external factors and internal factors. External factors include school factors (learning pressure, teaching environment, interpersonal relationship), family factors (parenting style, parental support, family economic status). Internal factors include personality, self-esteem, and attribution style. This paper combs the relationship between these factors and academic burn-out as well as some influencing mechanisms. In the field of academic burn-out, there is a complex correlation between various factors, and few studies have taken comprehensive consideration of internal and external factors and explored the influence mechanism of these factors indepth. In the future, studies in this field should be strengthened, and prevention and intervention methods should be worked out based on these influencing factors.

Nursing training and its association with burnout syndrome among Mexican undergraduate students

“…The present study was conducted on a group of university students from Hidalgo, Mexico. This region of Mexico presents a higher level of poverty and inequality and since it is suggested that the SES plays a determining role in the development of academic SB, our findings could be generalizable only to populations with similar socioeconomic characteristics (Merritt & Buboltz, 2015;Lin & Yang, 2021).…”

“…Regarding socioeconomic characteristics, unlike Mexico, Spain, and Italy have a higher human development index, which is related to the economic condition of a country (United Nations Development Programme, 2020). Data suggest higher levels of BS in students from families with low socioeconomic status (SES; Lin & Yang, 2021). The SES represents the availability of resources to cover expenses related to compliance with academic requirements (i.e., payment for transportation, purchase of books, uniforms, or materials; Merritt & Buboltz, 2015).…”

“…In the State of Hidalgo, Mexico, the proportion of people living in poverty (50.8%) is higher than the national percentage (43.9%; CONEVAL, 2021). It has been suggested that students with greater economic deprivation present higher rates of BS (Lin & Yang, 2021), therefore the population of this region could be more susceptible to presenting this problem. Although previous studies in the State of Hidalgo have identified the presence of BS in university students (Ledezma et al, 2017), we do not have knowledge about studies that have examined whether the presence of this syndrome is differential among non-healthcare students and nursing students.…”

Student Burnout in Children and Adolescents: The Role of Attachment and Emotion Regulation

“…At the school level, elevated school demands (i.e., authority conflict, emotional and mental demands), learning pressure, poor interpersonal relationships, and a negative teaching environment were positively related to burnout symptoms, while school resources (i.e., teacher support, control, autonomy) showed a negative association to burnout symptoms [ 20 , 21 ]. Concerning family factors, parenting style, family economic status, and parental support and acceptance have been found to influence burnout symptoms [ 20 , 22 , 23 ]. Further, elevated levels of life stress positively predict academic burnout in student samples [ 24 ].…”

A Study Related to the Evaluation of University Education by Companies Implementing a new Personnel Recruitment Management System

“…[8]A resource based model environment to understand your specific situation, recognize your competitive mind, and get to follow more developmental growth.. (Fangyu L. , Kaidan Y. 2021) [4]According to social identity theory, the proposed framework suggests that when employees identify strongly with the organization, this affects the way employees view external stakeholders in the social landscape at work, thus promoting some more and better consequences. (DANIEL KORSCHUN, 2015) It is beneficial for corporate enterprise development.…”
