Abstract

On the premise that burnout is a heterogeneous phenomenon in terms of the symptoms people experience, a growing number of studies in recent years have aimed to identify symptomatic profiles of burnout in teachers. The present study analyzes possible differences in the make-up of profiles of burnout symptoms in teachers working in initial and middle educational stages, as well as teachers working in both stages at the same time. It also seeks to determine whether those profiles differ in terms of adaptive psychological functioning (flourishing, self-efficacy, hope, optimism, and resilience). From a sample of 1,290 teachers (Mage=43.04, SD=13.13, 73.7% women), two profiles were found (with and without burnout) in early and middle school teachers, and four profiles in teachers who work in both stages (three profiles of burnout symptoms). Those with profiles of burnout symptoms exhibited significantly poorer psychological functioning. These findings allow to identify those teachers who, due to their burnout symptoms, need priority attention in order to reinforce their positive organizational behavior.

Resumen

Bajo la premisa de que el burnout constituye un fenómeno heterogéneo en la experimentación de sus síntomas, en los últimos años, un número creciente de trabajos se ha orientado hacia la identificación de perfiles sintomáticos de burnout en el profesorado. En el presente estudio, se analizan las diferencias en la conformación de los perfiles de síntomas de burnout en docentes de etapas educativas iniciales y medias, así como en docentes que simultanean ambas etapas. Asimismo, se analiza si los perfiles identificados difieren en su funcionamiento psicológico adaptativo (florecimiento, autoeficacia, esperanza, optimismo y resiliencia). A partir de una muestra de 1.290 docentes (Medad=43.04, DT=13.13, 73.7% mujeres), se identifican dos perfiles (con y sin burnout) en las etapas inicial y media, y cuatro perfiles (tres perfiles con sintomatología de burnout) en el profesorado que ejerce en ambas etapas. Los perfiles con síntomas de burnout evidencian un funcionamiento psicológico significativamente más pobre. Estos hallazgos permiten identificar al profesorado que, en virtud de su sintomatología de burnout, requieren una atención prioritaria en aras de potenciar su funcionamiento organizacional positivo.
