Keywords:
emotional burnout syndrome, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, reduction of personal achievementsAbstract
The article briefly presents the results of empirical research on the level of emotional burnout among
secondary school teachers. A definition of emotional burnout syndrome describes the characteristics of emotional
burnout of teachers as representatives of a socially significant profession. Researchers note the changing role of
teachers in the modern period. The new educational situation in Bulgaria, due to the modernization of the Bulgarian
society and processes of globalization, requires a change in the personal and professional qualities of the teacher, in
his social and professional position in society. The questionnaire "Diagnosis of occupational burnout" by K.
Maslach, S. Jackson, - MBI-GS (Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey) was used. Respondents are classified
by age, gender, position held and seniority in the specialty.
Charts showing the level of mental exhaustion of pedagogic specialists from a high school in a large city are
presented. Empirical research covers the three stages of Burn-out syndrome: emotional exhaustion,
depersonalization, reduction of personal achievements. Recommendations and a conclusion are made from the
obtained results.
