Abstract

The Neuroscience considers that the most resilient people maintain greater emotional balance in stress situations, which allows them to better withstand the pressure and, consequently, to experience a greater sense of control and ability to cope with difficult situations. The aim of the cross-sectional study is to analyze the preventive effect of resilience on burnout perceived by Secondary Education teachers. The sample is constituted by 334 teachers of the Province of Huesca. The data collection instruments used are: a) to measure burnout, the adaptation to Spanish (MBI-GS) of Salanova, Schaufeli, Llorens, Peiró, and Grau (2000) and b) resilience is assessed using the CD Resilience Scale. -RISC (Connor and Davidson, 2003). The correlational and factorial analysis of the information collected yields results that confirm that the personal characteristics and the resilience of the person act as preventive variables against the self-perception of symptoms of chronic stress, typical of the burnout syndrome.

Summary

La resiliencia como factor protector del estrés crónico en docentes

Los instrumentos de recogida de datos empleados son: a) para medir el burnout la adaptación al castellano del (MBI- GS) de Salanova, Schaufeli, Llorens, Peiró, y Grau (2000) y b) la resiliencia se evalúa mediante la Escala de resiliencia CD-RISC (Connor y Davidson, 2003). La inteligencia emocional es otro de los factores individuales que explica que algunas personas son más resistentes a los estresores por su capacidad de percibir, comprender y regular tanto sus emociones, como las de los demás (Cassullo y García, 2015; Llorens, Salanova, Torrente, y Acosta, 2013). El trabajo que presentamos a continuación tiene como objetivo principal comprobar si existe relación entre la percepción de burnout y de resiliencia en la muestra de docentes de Educación Secundaria de la provincia de Huesca (España). El mayor porcentaje acumulado se sitúa entre los 46 y los 55 años (38.92%), por lo que nos encontramos en una franja de edad en la que habitualmente emergen los casos de burnout
