Understanding Athletics Academic Advisors' Experience with Job Burnout
Felicia O’Rourke
NACADA Journal, v44 n2 p137-148 2024
Chronic stress and burnout are prevalent in Division I athletics, yet there is limited research on job burnout and workplace stress among academic advisors specializing in Division I athletics. This study contributes a deeper understanding of the experiences of Division I athletics academic advisors regarding job burnout and its contributing factors. The study also introduces two athletics academic advising models in Division I and examines how job burnout manifests within these models. Interviews with eight participants uncovered four themes that articulate how participants experience constant stress and highlight the areas of work that shape their job burnout. Findings assist professionals in the field in developing a better grasp of what is influencing job burnout and its ramifications.
