Короткий опис(реферат):
Burnout syndrome is a state of emotional, mental and physical exhaustion caused by chronic stress at
work. This syndrome is primarily inherent in the professions, which involve assisting people and close contact
with children. Burnout syndrome is considered as a result of harmful stress in the workplace.Professional activity
of sports educators is characterized by high emotional intensity due to many stress factors. These include high
dynamism, lack of time, work overload, complicated teaching situations, role uncertainty, social evaluation,
constant and intense contact with children, colleagues, interaction with various social groups, etc. All this affects
sports educators’ emotional state. The article presents the results of an empirical study on the individual’s level
of burnout syndrome in professional activity. The research aims to determine the level of burnout syndrome in
sports educators and verify the effectiveness of the burnout syndrome psycho-correction programme. The
research sample comprised 60 sports educators aged between 17 and 24. In order to fulfil the research aim,
relevant psychodiagnostic methods were selected to systematically study burnout syndrome in specialists.In the
empirical study, Boiko’s methodology for identifying the level of burnout syndrome was used. Results.The
obtained data prove the decrease in all indicators of specialists’ burnout syndrome symptoms. It mostly relates to
such symptoms as emotional and moral disorientation (before – 0.75, after – 0.3), feeling “backed into a corner”
(before – 0.75, after – 0.3), expanding the field of emotion economy (before – 1.02, after – 0.53), decreasing
professional duties (before – 1.00, after – 0.58).Conclusions.Based on the obtained data, a programme of burnout
syndrome psycho-correction was designed. It is aimed at assisting sports educators in dealing with the syndrome
and increasing the level of emotional stability due to well-developed skills of self-regulation. In the course of the
research, it has been proved that the programme is effective.The analysis of the obtained results shows that
sports educators are less susceptible to burnout syndrome after the programme has been implemented. This
programme can both correct and prevent burnout syndrome.
