PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF OCCUPATIONAL BURNOUT AMONG STUDENT YOUTH

Abstract

Theoretical analysis and empirical study on characteristics of an influence ofтoccupational burnout on a personality of students of a technical university is carried out in this article. It is proved that the concept of occupational burnout of students appears as a number of interrelated factors
that determine an activity of the individual. It is substantiated that occupational burnout should be considered as a process of gradual loss of the emotional, cognitive and physical energy, which indicates symptoms of mental exhaustion, physical fatigue and decreased motivation to study. The purpose of the study is to observe peculiarities of occupational burnout syndrome among students of the technical
university. The empirical study used the method of "Diagnosis of occupational burnout" by V. Boyko, which is the most complex and allows to analyze systematically and thoroughly the following components of burnout syndrome symptoms: stress, resistance, exhaustion. We investigated the manifestations of the syndrome by the following main indicators: psycho-emotional exhaustion, personal alienation, professional motivation using the method of "Determination of mental burnout" by O. Rukavishnikov.
The study was conducted at Lutsk National Technical University. The sample consisted of 30 students from different faculties.The results of the empirical study revealed that students of the technical university did not have fully formed symptoms of occupational burnout and had problems only with the
motivational sphere of professional development.
The results of the study reflect only a single aspect of the impact of academic knowledge on the emotional exhaustion among student youth and highlight only part of a problem that certainly deserves further study.In particular, we plan a detailed study of the various components that form the syndrome of occupational burnout and their interaction with the conditions for obtaining academic knowledge.
