PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS DETERMINING PROFESSIONAL BURNOUT OF THE INDIVIDUAL
Keywords:
individual, professional burnout, personality traits, emotional intelligenceAbstract
This article is devoted to the theoretical analysis of the psychological factors determining an individual’s professional burnout. Within the framework of the article, the main theoretical approaches to professional burnout are examined, emphasizing its multidimensional nature, stage-based development, and specific manifestations. The method of comparative analysis was applied, through which the key provisions of the approaches to professional burnout were identified, as well as the similarities and differences in the authors’ views regarding the structure of burnout and the factors determining it. The analysis demonstrated that the recurrence of psychological factors of professional burnout is high across different theoretical approaches, which indicates their fundamental role in the formation of burnout syndrome. The psychological factors of professional burnout identified include motivation, coping strategies, self-efficacy, emotional regulation, and stress resistance. One of the most frequently occurring factors is motivation. The results make it possible to systematize the existing theoretical approaches and to develop an integrated model of professional burnout as a multifactorial and multilevel phenomenon. The proposed model may serve as a theoretical basis for the development of professional burnout prevention programs.
