Job Stress and Burnout among Industrial and Technical Teacher Educators
Brewer, Ernest W.; McMahan, Jama
Journal of Vocational Education Research, v28 n2 p125-140 2003
This study examined job stress and burnout among a random sample of 133 industrial and technical teacher educators. The Job Stress Survey (JSS) developed by Spielberger and Vagg (1999) measured stress; the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) developed by Maslach and Jackson (1996) measured burnout. Stepwise multiple regression was used to determine the amount of variance in job stress and burnout levels predicted by demographic characteristics. Participants perceived stressors related to lack of organizational support as more severe than stressors related to the job itself. Also, participants reported an average degree of burnout. Demographic characteristics did not explain a large amount of variance in levels of job stress or burnout. Findings from this study have implications for designing interventions for job stress and burnout in industrial and technical teacher education. (Contains 3 tables.)
