Predictors of Burnout Among Educators Working in Special Education

Summary/Abstract: This study examines an empirical model of burnout predictors among educators working in special education. Three groups of independent variables were taken into consideration: personal characteristics (age, neuroticism, extraversion, coping resources, perceived level of stress in personal life), contextual variables (number of years in special education, number of years in present job, salary), and organizational variables (job autonomy, role overload, role conflict, role insufficiency, role clarity, perceived organizational support, and perceived level of work stress). Role conflict, perceived level of work stress and number of years in special education were significant predictors of the emotional exhaustion, whereas role overload and extraversion were significant predictors of depersonalization. For low personal accomplishment, the only significant predictor was perceived organizational support.
