Student-athletes who strive for success in high-level sports while pursuing upper secondary education may be prone to sport and school burnout. This study examined the co-developmental dynamic of sport and school burnout in Finnish adolescent student-athletes (N = 391; N = 373) across the first year of upper secondary school using cross-lagged structural equation modeling (SEM). Furthermore, we used sport and school-related achievement goals as predictors of sport and school burnout, namely sport and school-related exhaustion, cynicism, and feelings of inadequacy. The results showed that burnout dimensions in a particular domain were substantially stable within the same domain during the first year of upper secondary school and that school-related exhaustion at the beginning of upper secondary school predicted sport-related exhaustion at the end of the school year. Mastery goals in sport and school were negatively associated with cynicism and feelings of inadequacy within the same domain. Furthermore, performance goals in school were positively associated with school-related cynicism. The results can be used by healthcare professionals for early prevention of student-athletes' burnout.
在追求高水平运动的同时接受中等教育的学生运动员可能容易出现运动和学业倦怠。本研究使用交叉滞后结构方程模型(SEM),考察了芬兰青少年学生运动员在高中第一年的运动和学业倦怠的共同发展动态(N=391;N=373)。此外,我们还使用与运动和学业相关的成就目标作为运动和学业倦怠的预测因素,即与运动和学业相关的疲惫、玩世不恭和不称职感。研究结果表明,在高中第一年,特定领域的倦怠维度在同一领域内具有相当的稳定性,并且高中开始时的学业倦怠会预测学年结束时的运动倦怠。运动和学业中的掌握目标与同一领域内的玩世不恭和不称职感呈负相关。此外,学业中的表现目标与学业上的玩世不恭呈正相关。研究结果可以为医疗保健专业人员提供帮助,以便及早预防学生运动员的倦怠。
