This project addresses the growing issue of burnout among U.S. higher education faculty. An inquiry into the causes of faculty burnout points to weaknesses within the American higher education system that have been exacerbated by a network of external and internal pressures. From the outside, institutions are being pressured to act more like…

The authors draw from the burnout literature to present a framework for faculty wellbeing efforts. Burnout happens when there is a mismatch between one's ideal and reality and can result in exhaustion, cynicism, and feeling ineffective. Rather than focusing on mitigating burnout, we present a framework for engaging faculty on the other end of the…

Teaching is a stressful job, that often presents with limited time and high job demands. However, the vast majority of the interventions tailored to help mitigate this stress and increase wellbeing are very time consuming and not tailored to meet the specific needs of teachers. To address this gap, this paper utilizes a randomized study design and…

Teacher burnout, stress, and turnover are increasing globally, underscoring the need to explore ways to reduce burnout and support teacher well-being. This scoping review identifies the contents, characteristics, and results of interventions to increase teacher well-being and reduce burnout. The search was conducted using two databases (Education…

The problem addressed in this study was that social and emotional strategies are not provided at the school level, which affects teachers' mental well-being, causing them to feel occupational burnout. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, educators have been compelled to adapt to new teaching modalities, contributing to heightened stress…

Over fifty years of research investigating teacher burnout has resulted in a well-accepted model of burnout that involves three dimensions: exhaustion, depersonalization, and loss of accomplishment. Recently, a new cause of teacher attrition has been proposed called "demoralization," on the argument that demoralization is a distinct…

Teacher burnout is a problem that impacts the school community. Students are adversely impacted when teachers experience burnout (Hastings & Bham, 2003). Teachers experiencing burnout have less well-being and less access to psychological capital (PsyCap). Therefore, evidence-informed solutions are needed to address teacher burnout in a…

The escalating challenges faced by educators highlight the urgent need to understand factors influencing their wellbeing. Teachers in the United States education system are stressed, burnt out, and leaving the field in unprecedented numbers (Sparks, 2022; Camera, 2022; Zamarro et al., 2021; Dabrowski, 2021; Hill-Jackson et al., 2022). It is…

When the pandemic forced college instruction online, most faculty focused on converting their courses to a new format, but increasingly stressed students began to turn to faculty for both personal and academic support. Faculty who trained as subject matter experts found themselves experiencing the symptoms of burnout and compassion fatigue,…

The study of teacher well-being is critically important. However, teacher well-being studies are lacking in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, and also generally in low-income countries. This exploratory case study sought to identify teachers' perceptions of work-related characteristics and personal practices associated with well-being and burnout…

Sources of satisfaction, stress, and burnout are all-too-familiar to school-based agricultural education (SBAE) teachers. Yet, the current literature related to SBAE stress has not addressed the overwhelming existence of trauma in our greater society. Teacher wellbeing can be compromised when students share their own adversities and traumatic…

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered the employment landscape, including educational institutions, creating long-term effects for college and university employees. One of the major implications of the pandemic is the systemic transformations in employment and organisational dynamics, that resulted in effects on working conditions and…

The psychological well-being of teachers is essential in education, as it directly impacts teaching effectiveness and student outcomes. Recently, emotional blackmail has emerged as a critical concern for both physical and mental health, yet empirical studies on this topic, particularly among teachers, remain limited. Teaching is a profession…

Empirical studies have demonstrated the importance of emotion regulation for teachers' professional development. We adopted a person-centered approach to explore primary school teachers' emotion regulation and its impact on occupational well-being, job burnout, and resilience. To understand the potential types of emotion regulation, we conducted a…

This study aimed to explore the longitudinal trajectories of teacher burnout and vigour across the school year and whether teacher emotional intelligence (EI) at the beginning of the school year would predict membership in the trajectories. A sample of 311 school teachers (M[subscript age] = 42.40 years ± 9.64 years, aged: 24-61) reported their…
