This study aimed to evaluate the current state of academic burnout among Chinese college students and its influencing factors.
A cross-sectional study of 22,983 students was conducted using structured questionnaires and the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey on sociodemographic characteristics, educational process, and personal aspects. Multiple variables were statistically evaluated using logistic regression analysis.
The total score of the students' academic burnout was 40.73 (± 10.12) points. The scores for the reduced personal accomplishment, emotional exhaustion, and cynicism were 23.63 (± 6.55), 11.20 (± 6.05), and 5.91 (± 5.31), respectively. Students with academic burnout accounted for 59.9% (13,753/22,983). Male students had higher burnout scores than female students, upper-grade students had higher burnout scores than lower-grade students, and students who smoked had higher burnout than non-smokers during the school day.
More than half of students experienced academic burnout. Gender, grade, monthly living expenses, smoking, parents' education level, study and life pressures, and the current degree of professional knowledge interest significantly impacted academic burnout. An effective wellness program and an annual long-term burnout assessment may sufficiently reduce student burnout.
本研究旨在评估中国大学生目前的学术倦怠状况及其影响因素。
采用横断面研究,对 22983 名学生进行问卷调查,内容包括人口统计学特征、教育过程和个人方面的结构问卷和 Maslach 职业倦怠量表通用调查。使用逻辑回归分析对多个变量进行统计学评估。
学生学术倦怠总分为 40.73(±10.12)分。减少个人成就感、情绪衰竭和玩世不恭的分数分别为 23.63(±6.55)、11.20(±6.05)和 5.91(±5.31)。有学术倦怠的学生占 59.9%(13753/22983)。与女生相比,男生的倦怠得分更高;与低年级学生相比,高年级学生的倦怠得分更高;与不吸烟者相比,在学校期间吸烟的学生倦怠得分更高。
超过一半的学生经历了学术倦怠。性别、年级、月生活费、吸烟、父母受教育程度、学习和生活压力以及当前专业知识兴趣程度对学术倦怠有显著影响。有效的健康计划和年度长期倦怠评估可能会充分减少学生的倦怠。
