Specifics of Mental Burnout Manifestation in Rural School Teachers

Introduction. The scientific relevance and social significance of the mental burnout are determined by the maladaptive nature of its manifestations, which have a negative impact on the effectiveness of the professional activity of specialists. At the same time in the scientific field there is a deficit of research revealing the mechanisms of influence of specific conditions of pedagogical activity realization on its efficiency and presenting the consequences of this influence. Objective. To study mental burnout in school teachers working in rural areas. Materials and Methods. The study participants were 184 teachers from schools in the districts of the city of Zabaikalski Krai and Chita. In the process of forming the sample, the questionnaire survey was used, based on the results of which two groups were formed: the first group included 56 teachers from rural schools, and the second group consisted of 58 teachers from city schools. At the stage of empirical research, we used the method of psychodiagnostic testing, which included the method of professional burnout by K. Maslach and S. Jackson in adaptation of N. E. Vodopyanova and V. V. Boyko’s method of diagnosing emotional burnout. The non-parametric criterion of reliability of differences U Mann-Whitney was used in processing the results of the study. Results. It was found that the frequency of occurrence and the degree of severity of mental burnout manifestations are lower in rural school teachers compared to urban school teachers. The dynamics of symptoms in this group is characterized by earlier stages of development and the emerging nature of symptoms, and there is a qualitative peculiarity of the general structure of mental burnout, manifested in the dominance of certain symptoms and the nature of their completeness. Discussion. The analysis of the empirical research results allows us to speak about the peculiarities of mental burnout concerning its frequency of occurrence, degree of expression, and qualitative uniqueness in rural and urban school teachers. The results of the study indicate higher adaptive capabilities of rural school teachers in relation to the development of mental burnout and allow us to outline an effective direction of appropriate preventive work.

Features of the structural organization of emotional intelligence of men and women - managers of public catering enterprises with different levels of severity of mental burnout

The paper presents the problem of the relationship between emotional intelligence and mental burnout (based on the material of employees of catering enterprises - men and women). Based on the structural and psychological analysis, it was found that the differences in the structures of the studied qualities are differentiated by gender. A high level of systemic organization of indicators of emotional intelligence in men negates the devastating effects of mental burnout syndrome. The developed structure of indicators of emotional intelligence in the group of women exacerbates mental burnout.

Features of emotional burnout of a personality at various stages of subjectogenesis of young teachers

Introduction. Emotional burnout ranks third among the main causes of staff turnover in educational institutions. Pedagogical activity at all levels of education, due to its content and conditions of implementation, is stressful and vulnerable to the effects of emotional burnout. The profession of a teacher involves the performance of a large number of tasks: the organization of the educational process, educational, research, educational and methodological work. The study of the features of emotional burnout at various stages of subjectogenesis will reveal the picture of changes and the target of preventive action. Materials and methods. The sample consisted of 119 teachers of higher and secondary levels of education aged 22 to 36 years, with professional experience from one year to 13 years. Of these, 64 teachers of higher education from the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of the KSMU of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and Southwestern State University and 55 teachers from the Lyceum Boarding School named after Marshal Zhukov, Secondary Secondary School No. 58 named after Major General M.V. Ovsyannikov. The study of emotional burnout of young teachers of higher education with different length of professional experience (up to 5 years, over 5 years and up to 10 years and over 10 years) was carried out using the questionnaire "Emotional burnout" (V.V. Boyko), mathematical and statistical methods of data processing (descriptive statistics, U-Manna–Whitney, the method of structural psychological analysis). The obtained results were processed using the computer program "Statistica 10.0". Results and discussion. The stages of subjectogenesis of young teachers (higher school teachers and secondary school teachers) determine emotional burnout. It has been empirically proven that the degree of integration of its structures among young teachers of higher education, in contrast to teachers of secondary schools, is maximum with a length of professional experience of up to 5 years and over 10 years. Unlike young teachers, young teachers “burn” most intensely, and those who have more than 5 years of experience, but no more than 10 years. At this stage of their subjectogenesis, the formation of all phases of emotional burnout is diagnosed and its highest level is observed. Conclusion. The identified stages of subjectogenesis can be considered as sensitive periods in the formation of professional competence of young teachers, when their personality is most susceptible to the effects of emotional burnout, and taken into account in the development of a system of preventive measures (Mental Burnout Index” scale: Xav.± σ=200.67±32.73, U= 29.00*, p= 0.0001).

The manifestation of professional burnout among university teachers under pandemic conditions

Relevance. The relevance of this study focuses on the ways to work effectively under stressful situations. After all, the COVID-19 pandemic is a stressor, and burnout syndrome is directly linked to the stress caused by the pandemic. Education is particularly specific, since within the "human-human" professions, an important aspect is the social connection between those involved and the support inherent in the educational process. As education has been completely reorganised into distance education, an important part like belonging to society is neglected. This has a negative impact on both the emotional and mental component of the personality. Purpose. The purpose of this study is to investigate burnout syndrome amidst the pandemic. The object is professional burnout as a key mechanism of productivity and efficiency. The subject is a manifestation of professional burnout among university teachers under the conditions of COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology. The study involved the following research methods: theoretical (analysis, synthesis, generalisation, argumentation) and practical (mathematical statistics, methodology: Diagnostics of professional burnout by K. Maslachand and S. Jackson (adapted by N. Vodopyanova); Diagnostics of the level of emotional burnout by V. Boyko; Definition of mental burnout by A. Rukavishnikov). Results. In the course of disclosing the subject, the immediate advantages and significant disadvantages of distance education were identified. The causes of burnout, the stages of its development and a number of techniques to minimise the manifestations of professional burnout were also highlighted. Conclusions. According to the study, teachers today need to work on decreasing their levels of emotional exhaustion and detachment, and on increasing their "reduction in personal achievement". Substantial work should be done to reduce employees' stress levels and train them in self-regulation skills to manage their emotions effectively. The findings will be of use to all those involved in education, namely teachers, psychologists, administrators of educational institutions and ministers.

Взаимосвязь уровня профессионального выгорания и удовлетворенности трудовыми отношениями медицинских работников с разными социально-демографическими характеристиками

Professional burnout is one of the current phenomena that attracts researchers and practitioners focused on the study and socio-psychological support of labor subjects. In connection with current social challenges, the attention of society and specialists is directed to representatives of helping professions, whose activities are associated with the formation of negative emotional symptoms. The purpose of the article is to identify the characteristics of professional burnout and satisfaction with relationships in a team of medical workers with different socio-demographic characteristics (age, length of service, position). The work was carried out at the request of the customer - one of the perinatal centers in the city of Omsk. 374 employees of this organization took part in the study. The following diagnostic tools were used: the author's questionnaire “Communicative Professional Environment”, a questionnaire to determine the level of mental burnout (MBI) (K. Maslach and S. Jackson, adaptation by N. E. Vodopyanova). The diagnostic survey revealed that the level of satisfaction with staff relationships is high against the background of a low level of professional burnout. However, frequency analysis made it possible to identify a risk group - employees with average, high and extremely high rates of professional burnout in the amount of 117 people. It has been established that among the medical workers of the center there is an inverse relationship between burnout, its components (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduction of personal achievements) and job satisfaction, its components (the desire to work in the organization, a sense of comfort in the team, team cohesion, satisfaction from the work performed). A greater number of significant relationships between the level of professional burnout and satisfaction with labor relations were found among young employees with short work experience.

Assessing Occupational Stress in Seafaring: A Fuzzy Delphi Approach to Develop Effective Management Strategies in Offshore Support Vessel Operations

The maritime industry has long been a crucial component of Malaysia's economy. Seafarers in this industry face unique psychosocial, work-related, and environmental stressors, which can negatively impact their health, safety, and well-being. The operations of offshore support vessels (OSVs) are particularly hazardous and require effective strategies for occupational stress management. The Fuzzy Delphi method was used to identify the key enablers of occupational stress in OSV operations. The study has found that the main enablers of occupational stress in seafaring include vulnerability towards occupational hazards and risks, human capital skills, onboard living conditions, governance capacity, and mental burnout. These findings can help guide efforts to address the occupational stressors faced by seafarers serving on OSVs and enhance their working conditions, skills, and health. Shipping companies, policymakers, and organisations must collaborate to ensure the compliance with marine regulations and standards, improve shift schedules, and implement proper mechanisms to maintain the occupational health of seafarers during and post the Covid-19 pandemic.

An Investigation of the Impact of Online Customer Service Burnout on Customer Experience in Malaysia

The article presented here involves examining the impact of online customer service burnout on customer experience, and also then to show how customer service burnout can be alleviated using the credible neural network and thus improving customer experience overall. A quantitative method was used which involved using a questionnaire to collect data from a sample of 384 respondents. The data that was collected were analyzed using SPSS. The hypothesis testing showed that H1, H2, H3, and H4 are accepted. The results showed that online customer service burnout did have a negative effect on customer experience and more importantly, the results highlighted the use of credible neural networks can reduce mental burnout among customer service representatives, thus contributing to a more positive customer experience. These results suggest that mental burnout of online customer service representatives which results in the deterioration of the customer service experience can be alleviated by credible neural networks. This is because these systems can reduce customer waiting times, handle large data volumes, reduce additional employee training, and reduce overall working time. These important attributes of the credible neural networks can generate lower mental burnout among customer service representatives and this will enable them to serve the customers much more efficiently thus improving customer experience. It was thus recommended for organisations implement credible neural networks to help supplement and support the work of customer service representatives working online remotely so that their performance can be enhanced and the customer experience can be improved. Credible neural network systems will be very beneficial to the employees by allowing them to carry out their work with less mental fatigue and this enables them to excel to higher levels, thus providing a superior customer experience.

PREVENTION OF PROFESSIONAL DEFORMATIONS OF THE PERSONALITY IN WORK WITH STUDENT YOUTH

A manifestation of the negative influence of the profession on the individual is the appearance of various professional deformations or specific conditions, such as, for example, the phenomenon of mental burnout. Professional deformation means any change caused by the profession that occurs in the body and acquires a permanent character. From this point of view, deformation extends to all aspects of a person's physical and mental organization, which change under the influence of the profession. Traditionally, the understanding of professional deformation is associated with the negative impact of the profession on the psychological characteristics of a person, which complicates his behavior in everyday life and, ultimately, can reduce work efficiency.
 Thus, analyzing the above, we can come to the conclusion: the mechanism of the occurrence of professional deformation has quite complex dynamics and is associated with the consolidation of negative changes in professional activity and in everyday behavior and communication. First, temporary negative mental states appear, then positive qualities begin to disappear. Later, in the place of positive properties, negative mental qualities appear, which change the employee's personal profile. There is a permanent distortion of the configuration of the employee's personal profile, which is a deformation. Professional deformations violate the integrity of the individual; reduce its adaptability, stability; negatively affect professional health and work productivity. All this should be taken into account when working with student youth in order to prevent mental burnout in professional activities.

A technology-people-integrated toolkit for retail care management during a crisis

Mental volatilities are seen to be on the rise when it comes to retail employees and consumers. Specifically, in times of crisis there is a need to be able to customise care management in a way that is coherent and comprehensive to address mental volatility. This customisation is sought in technology and people. However, thus far there is no toolkit for a specific crisis-sensitive care management protocol. We, therefore, build on an ADO framework-based, illustrative case study of three UK retailers wherein we derive and exemplify how mental burnout in a volatile environment becomes a very important care management necessity which has been neglected thus far. Further, we detail how to contend with this need and how there is a demand for customisation, comprehensiveness, and consistency. In this respect, we conceptualise a technology-people-integrated toolkit that can be implemented with immediate effect for retail care management. We detail the practicalities work in two scenarios. To conclude, managerial and theoretical implications of this toolkit and study have been detailed along with the paper's limitations and suggestions for future research.

Use of the Maslach Burnout Inventory Among Public Health Care Professionals: Protocol for a Scoping Review.

Burnout syndrome is a chronic response to stressors in the workplace. It is characterized by emotional exhaustion and physical and mental burnout and may lead to high employee turnover, work absenteeism, and increased occupational accidents. Most studies use the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) to identify burnout and implement preventive actions and treatments. This study presents a scoping review protocol to identify and map studies that used MBI to assess burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public health services. This scoping review protocol follows the Joanna Briggs Institute reviewers' manual, and this protocol consists of 6 stages: identifying the research question, identifying relevant studies, study selection, data extraction and coding, analysis and interpretation of results, and consultation with stakeholders. We will conduct searches in Embase, LILACS, PubMed/MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Scopus, Web of Science databases, and gray literature. The main research question is as follows: how is MBI used to identify burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public health services? Inclusion criteria will comprise qualitative and quantitative studies using MBI to identify burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public health services and no restrictions in language and publication dates. Data will be extracted using a spreadsheet adapted from the Joanna Briggs Institute model. Quantitative and qualitative data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis, respectively. The consultation with stakeholders will be essential for increasing the knowledge about MBI, identifying new evidence, and developing future strategies to guide public policies preventing burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public services. This protocol will guide a scoping review to identify and map studies that used MBI to identify burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public health services. The results of this review may be useful to public health care professionals, managers, policymakers, and the general population because these findings will help understand the validated, translated, and adapted versions of MBI and domains, number of items, Likert scales, and cutoff points or the latent profile analysis most used in the literature. Furthermore, possible research gaps may be identified to guide future studies. All information regarding the stages of the scoping review favor its transparency and allow it to be methodologically replicated according to the principles of open science, thereby reducing the risk of bias and data duplication. This study may reveal the multiplicity of scales described in the literature and the different forms of assessing burnout syndrome in health care professionals. This study may help to standardize the assessment of burnout syndrome in health care professionals working in public health services and contribute to the discussion and knowledge dissemination about burnout syndrome and mental health in this population.

Factors associated with the improvement of the empathy levels among clinical-year medical students in Southern Thailand: a university-based cross-sectional study

BackgroundEmpathy is one of the core medical professionalisms that distress, burnout, and lack of personal well-being is also recognized as an important influencer on lower empathy levels. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the mental health, burnout, and factors associated with the empathy levels among Thai, clinical-year medical students.MethodsThis cross-sectional study surveyed all fourth-to sixth-year medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Songkla University, in Thailand; at the end of the 2020 academic year. The questionnaires utilized were: (1) The personal and demographic information questionnaire, (2) The Toronto Empathy Questionnaire, (3) Thai Mental Health Indicator-15, and (4) The Maslach Burnout Inventory; Thai version. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and factors associated with empathy levels were analyzed via the chi-square test and logistic regressions.ResultsThere were 466 participants, with a response rate of 91.5%. The majority were female (56.2%), and reported a below-average level of empathy (57.1%); with a median score (IQR) of 44 (40–48). The gender proportion of a below-average empathy level among male and female participants was 66.3% and 50.4%, respectively. Of the participants, 29.6% had poor mental health, 63.5% and 39.7% reported a high level of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization scores; even though most of them (96.6%) perceived having a high level of personal accomplishment. Multivariate analysis indicated that females, higher mental health, and a low level of depersonalization were statistically significant protective factors, which improved the empathy levels.ConclusionsMore than half of the clinical-year medical students reported below-average empathy levels. Female gender, better mental health, and a low level of depersonalization were related to the improvement of the empathy levels. Therefore, medical educators should emphasize the importance of focusing supporting students, of all genders and in regards to all stages of medical education, to increase their levels of empathy, to promote individual well-being, and to effectively prevent the phenomenon of student ‘burnout’.

Socio-psychological competence as a factor in the emergence and overcoming of emotional burnout of teachers of individual educational organizations in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic

Introduction. The scale of the COVID-19 pandemic and the forced transition to distance learning in this regard, the need to restructure the forms and methods of teaching children with special educational needs in the digital environment, increased cognitive, emotional and communication loads, lack of time to prepare classes contribute to the occurrence of emotional burnout among teachers of individual educational organizations and actualize the problem of studying the influence of their socio-psychological competence on its overcoming. Materials and methods. Teachers (N = 50 females) of the Regional State General Educational Institution "Kursk Boarding School for Children with Disabilities", having professional experience of up to 1 year to 43 years, took part in the study. We used standardized methods for diagnosing emotional burnout, emotional and social intelligence, value orientations of the individual and stress-overcoming behavior, as well as mathematical and statistical methods of data processing: descriptive statistics and regression analysis. Results and discussion. It has been empirically proven that the overempathy of teachers (β = 0,763; p = 0,000), over-responsibility and loyalty (β = 0,465; p = 0,003), the desire for personal success (β = 0,723; p = 0,001), insufficiently developed ability to understand the logic of the development of situations interpersonal interaction and the significance of human behavior in these situations (β = 0,304; p = 0,003), manipulative (β = 1,287; p = 0,000) and aggressive (β = 0,620; p = 0,013) actions, contribute to the appearance of emotional burnout. The aspirations of teachers for social contacts (β = -0,365; p = 0,001), independence of thinking and choice of a method of action β = -0,874; p = 0,000), long-term deliberation and careful weighing of all possible solutions to the problem (β = -0,809; p = 0,000), respect for traditions and moderation (β = -0,882; p = 0,000), – counteract its occurrence ("Index of mental burnout"). Conclusion. It has been established for the first time that the socio-psychological competence of teachers can act not only as a factor in the occurrence, but also as a factor in overcoming emotional burnout, which determines the scientific novelty of the results obtained, as well as the strategy and tactics of corrective and preventive work from the standpoint of the resource approach.

Mental health and wellbeing among Egyptian medical students: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundMedical students are prone to experience high levels of stress during their studies, which can lead to burnout and mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression, that can affect their academic performance and ability to practice. We therefore conducted an online survey to collect data on demographics, sources of stress, mental health problems, burnout, and substance use in 547 medical students from two universities in Cairo. We used the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI), the General Health Questionnaire 12 (GHQ-12), and the CAGE questionnaire.ResultsOur results indicated that 16% of participants were diagnosed with a mental illness while in medical school, with 88% screening positive for burnout on the OLBI, 63% reaching the threshold as cases on the GHQ-12 and 9% screening positive on the CAGE questionnaire. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between scores on the OLBI and the GHQ-12.ConclusionsOur study indicated that there were very high levels of psychological distress (burnout, mental illness) among medical students, with high rates of disengagement and exhaustion.

The specificity of the vitality of health care workers with professional deformations

Introduction. The influence of stress factors in the social and occupational spheres of life leads to deformations of the professional plan and a decline in the vitality in health workers (indicators of beliefs about oneself as a specialist and occupational environment, resistance to stressful professional situations, endurance, satisfaction from work and its results, involvement, self-confidence, control, professional self-development). The purpose of the study is to determine the specificity of the vitality of health care workers with occupational deformities. Material and methods. The survey of 6830 healthcare workers was executed, including 816 cases with pronounced deformations of a professional plan. We used a burnout questionnaire and its modification, a mental burnout questionnaire, three modifications of the vitality test (in order to obtain objective information when the subjects perceive the content of the statements of the questionnaires in various contexts, taking into account the performance of diagnostic procedures by the self-assessment method) and a test for resistance to life difficulties. Mathematical and statistical data processing included descriptive statistics, K. Pearson’s correlation test and the Chaddock table. Results. In health care workers, the dominance of depletion of the psychoemotional type is determined, determined by the above-average: deformation of the professional aspect, depletion of the psychoemotional nature, reduction components of the achievements of the personal and professional type and motivation of professional activity, as well as average: the distance of the personal and professional aspect and depersonalization criteria, affecting a tendency towards a lower average risk acceptance, reduced indicator of involvement, a decrease in the average value of resilience and resistance to life difficulties, a tendency towards an average indicator of control. Discussion. The results of studies by foreign and domestic doctors and psychologists confirm the need for diagnostics, prevention and correction of professional deformations and increasing the resilience of healthcare workers. Conclusion. The need for systematic diagnosis, prevention and correction of the components of deformations of the occupational plan of health workers is explained by the lowered indicators of involvement, resilience, control, risk acceptance and resilience to life’s difficulties.

COVID-19: Contrasting experiences of South African physiotherapists based on patient exposure.

BackgroundThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has exposed physiotherapists to unique work-related challenges. However, there is a lack of research regarding the mental health and lived experiences of South African physiotherapists during the COVID-19 pandemic.ObjectivesTo determine levels of mental and physical health, burnout, depression, anxiety and resilience and coping strategies used by a sample of South African physiotherapists with and without exposure to patients with COVID-19. Lived work experience, perceived health and sources of support were also explored.MethodA non-experimental, cross-sectional, mixed-method design was used. Physiotherapists completed an online survey comprising: a demographic questionnaire; scales assessing mental and physical health, burnout, depression, anxiety and coping strategies and six open-ended questions. A total of 171 physiotherapists participated in our study, 43.3% of whom were exposed to patients with COVID-19.ResultsThe exposure group scored significantly higher on self-reported mental health, anxiety, depression and burnout than the non-exposure group. No significant differences were reported for physical health and resilience. Significantly more maladaptive coping strategies were employed by the exposure group. Participants’ lived experiences highlighted similar experiences, as well as work-related challenges. Both groups reported that primary sources of support were significant others, but highlighted the lack of organisational support.ConclusionIrrespective of the degree of exposure to COVID-19, the mental health and lived experiences of physiotherapists working in South Africa has been negatively impacted by COVID-19.Clinical implicationsUnderstanding physiotherapists’ well-being and lived experiences during the pandemic may guide workplace interventions. Our findings suggest the need for psycho-educational intervention programmes to be implemented at an organisational level.

MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC WERE LOWER AMONG UNDERGRADUATES IN CLINICAL COMPARED TO NON-CLINICAL PROGRAMS IN MALAYSIA

This study aimed to determine undergraduates’ mental health status, quality of life and burn-out status in clinical and non-clinical programs as well as its association during COVID-19 pandemic period. A cross sectional survey was carried out by distributing the questionnaire through online social media platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and Twitter. Mental health, burn-out statuses and quality of life of the undergraduates were assessed using 21-item Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21), Copenhagen Burnout Inventory and Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire (Q-LES-Q-SF) respectively. A total of 308 respondents (111 from clinical, 197 from non-clinical programs), mean (SD) age=21.88(1.29) years participated in this cross-sectional online survey. The results revealed that undergraduates in the non-clinical programs are more likely to experience higher levels of depression, anxiety and stress, which demonstrated by higher median (IQR) scores in each component of DASS-21 (Non-clinical VS Clinical) [depression, 18 (10-28) VS 8 (2-20); anxiety, 16 (8-26) VS 10 (2-16), and stress, 20 (12-28) VS 12 (4-22)]. Similarly, higher burnout median score, 58.83 (48.83 - 75.00) was noted among undergraduates in non-clinical programs with a lower mean (SD) Q-LES- Q-SF score=58.75 (18.03). Undergraduates from non-peninsular Malaysia showed lower quality of life scores [2.06(1.03-4.13)], while undergraduates with good internet accessibility had higher quality of life scores [2.06(1.03-4.13)]. The association between lower mental health status, QoL and burn-out among non-clinical students remained significant even after adjustment for gender, household income, type of university (IPTA vs IPTS), race, and internet accessibility at university. Our findings suggest that undergraduates from clinical programs had better mental health status and quality of life when compared to their peers from non-clinical programs during COVID-19 pandemic period.
