• Abstract:

  Burnout syndrome is a stress factor that occurs in many professions, as well as in physical education teachers, due to a high workload, interaction with students and extracurricular activities.  The objective of this study was to analyze the presence of Burnout syndrome in Physical Education teachers in the CORDE Izúcar de Matamoros, Puebla region. Its design was descriptive-qualitative using the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey (MBI-GS) test to measure the dimensions of emotional exhaustion, cynicism and professional efficacy with a sample of 40 basic education teachers. The results showed that physical education teachers have a low level of stress and a high commitment to their work, in contrast to physical education teachers who have a medium level of stress and can develop Burnout.
