We are delighted to invite researchers for a comprehensive research compilation on "The Burnout Spectrum in Schools and Sports: Students, Teachers, Athletes, and Coaches at Risk." This topic addresses the critical issue of burnout, a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress and frustration, affecting performance and well-being. This compilation aims to explore the multifaceted dimensions of burnout, its causes, impacts, and potential interventions across different groups engaged in educational and athletic settings.
Burnout has become a pervasive issue in modern society, significantly affecting individuals in high-stress environments such as schools and sports. Among students and athletes, burnout can lead to decreased academic and athletic performance, mental health issues, and a reduced quality of life. Similarly, teachers and coaches, who play pivotal roles in nurturing and guiding these young individuals, are also vulnerable to burnout. This can result in diminished job satisfaction, increased absenteeism, and a higher likelihood of leaving the profession.
The primary objectives of this research compilation are to:
1. Identify the prevalence and causes of burnout among students, teachers, athletes, and coaches.
2. examine the psychological, physical, and social impacts of burnout on these groups;
3. explore existing coping mechanisms and interventions that have been effective in preventing or reducing burnout;
4. propose innovative solutions and best practices for managing burnout in educational and sports contexts.
We welcome original research papers, reviews, case studies, and theoretical articles that provide insights into various aspects of burnout. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
• The psychological and physiological mechanisms underlying burnout;
• comparative studies of burnout across different age groups and settings;
• the role of organizational culture in mitigating or exacerbating burnout;
• innovative intervention programs and their effectiveness;
• personal narratives and qualitative studies capturing the lived experiences of burnout;
• longitudinal studies tracking the progression of burnout over time;
• cross-cultural perspectives on burnout in education and sports.
Keywords:
Burnout, sport, school, well-being, sport performance, school performance, children, teenagers adults, teachers, athletes, coaches, coaching styles, educational styles, physical and mental health, quality of life
Important Note:
All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
