| Sumario: | Significant levels of the burnout syndrome were encountered in a study of 304 elementaryschool professionals, teaching students at the 8 to 12 year level, in Mexico City, Mexico.A questionnaire containing demographic, employment, and productivity data wasanalyzed and correlated in the non-experimental, explanatory manner of Maslach BurnoutInventory –Human Services Survey (MBI - HHS) analysis method of Maslach and Jackson(1986). Using this approach it was concluded that 13% of the overall sample populationexhibited “high” levels of the burnout syndrome, with an additional 56% having “middle”levels. In addition, a low negative correlations exists between those teachers showingdepersonalization with their participation in school activities and the student´s academicresults as indicated by their “National evaluation of academic performance scores at schoolcenters” (ENLACE test scores). |
