Summary: Teachers are exposed to various occupational stressors which, if persistent, can lead to Burnout Syndrome and to recurrent thoughts of leaving the profession and culminate in total withdrawal. Thus, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the mediating role of Burnout Syndrome between the two dimensions motivational system that is constituted by the regulatory system with a focus on prevention and promotion and the Intention to Leave the profession among teachers in Southern Brazil. A total of 781 elementary school teachers from public and private schools participated in the research. The research instruments used included the Burnout Syndrome Questionnaire, the Regulatory Focus Scale, and a single item to evaluate the Intention to Leave the profession. The results obtained by Structural Equation Modeling confirmed the hypothesis that Burnout Syndrome plays a mediating role between promotion regulatory focus and the Intention to Leave the profession. The results reveal the importance of interventions that contemplate the reduction of occupational stressors for the prevention or rehabilitation of Burnout Syndrome in teachers.

Assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o papel mediador da Síndrome de Burnout entre as duas dimensões do sistema motivacional que é constituído pelo sistema regulatório com foco na prevenção e promoção e a intenção de abandono profissional em professores. Participaram da pesquisa 781 professores de ensino fundamental de escolas públicas e privadas. Foram utilizados como instrumentos de pesquisa o questionário para avaliação da Síndrome de Burnout, a escala de Focus Regulatório e um item único para avaliar a Intenção de abandono profissional. Os resultados obtidos por meio da Modelagem de Equações Estruturais confirmaram a hipótese de que a Síndrome de Burnout desempenha um papel mediador entre a dimensão do Foco regulatório promoção e a intenção de abandono profissional. Os resultados revelam a importância de intervenções que contemplem a redução de estressores ocupacionais para a prevenção ou reabilitação da Síndrome de Burnout em professores.ISPA - Instituto Universitário2023-07-10info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1985https://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1985Análise Psicológica; Vol 41, No 1 (2023); 15-27Análise Psicológica; Vol 41, No 1 (2023); 15-271646-60200870-8231reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPenghttp://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1985http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1985/pdfhttp://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/downloadSuppFile/1985/434Copyright (c) 2023 Análise Psicológicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarlotto, Mary SandraGonçalves, Sónia P.Geremias, Rosa LuteteCâmara, Sheila Gonçalves2023-07-13T10:15:12Zoai:ojs.localhost:article/1985Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T11:02:58.923211Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
