Profiles of teachers’ resilience and work burnout: the role of individual and contextual factors

This study examined profiles of teachers’ resilience and work burnout using a sample of 331 Finnish elementary school teachers (79% female) who filled out an online questionnaire in the spring of 2022. Using latent profile analysis, the four-profile solution was identified: (1) High Resilience and Low Burnout (31.7%), (2) Moderate Resilience and Low-Average Burnout (29.9%), (3) Low Resilience and High-Average Burnout (31.1%), and (4) Low Resilience and High Burnout (7.3%). Furthermore, the differences between the profiles were examined in terms of individual (work meaningfulness and overcommitment with work) and contextual (supportive organizational climate and leader–follower relationship) factors.

Abstract

This study examined profiles of teachers’ resilience and work burnout using a sample of 331 Finnish elementary school teachers (79% female) who filled out an online questionnaire in the spring of 2022. Using latent profile analysis, the four-profile solution was identified: (1) High Resilience and Low Burnout (31.7%), (2) Moderate Resilience and Low-Average Burnout (29.9%), (3) Low Resilience and High-Average Burnout (31.1%), and (4) Low Resilience and High Burnout (7.3%). Furthermore, the differences between the profiles were examined in terms of individual (work meaningfulness and overcommitment with work) and contextual (supportive organizational climate and leader–follower relationship) factors.
