Book excerpt: Certified athletic trainers (ATC) have a variety of job responsibilities which revolve around the delivery of health care services to athletes as well as physically active individuals. Studies related to stress and burnout among certified athleic trainers working at the collegiate setting of athletic training are growing. Many of the stressors that certified athletic trainers experience are due to the demands of varying athletic schedules, unrealistic expectations of sport coverage by coaches, parents and athletes, as well as the inherent competitiveness of athletics. Since certified athletic trainers spend a considerable amount of their time interacting with athletes and coaches, their perception of stressors can be a critical part in their definition of stress. Without intentional intervention, long term stress can lead to burnout. Stress and burnout will directly impact the quality of health care services that are provided by a certified athletic trainer.

Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2023 in the subject Health - Sports science, , language: English, abstract: This study aims to determine the causes of stress and burnout among athletic training students and athletic trainers and how these problems affect their professional careers. Besides, the study seeks to establish the level of burnout among athletic training students. Additionally, the study aims to establish the solution for the issues identified and recommends strategies that athletic training programs should implement to mitigate stress and burnout. Role strain, work-family conflict, and professional socialization are the leading cause of stress and burnout among athletic training students. Task incongruence, role conflict, ambiguity, overload, and incompetency were the identified aspects of strain in ATs. The ambiguity in the athletic training profession is connected to insufficient specificity, while role conflict occurs in a situation where an individual is assigned to multiple roles at the same time. In essence, an individual's values and beliefs may not be compatible with professional job demands, causing role incongruence (the situation where description does not align with an individual's personality). Nineteen articles deeply examine the effect of role strain in athletic training students' profession. Work-family conflict is the disturbance emanating from the profession's family responsibilities, impacting their professional accomplishment. Fourteen researchers examined this problem extensively in the reviewed research articles, and it was determined to be a potential cause of burnout among athletic training students. High travel demands and long working hours are the two causes of work-family conflicts identified in the study. Besides, delayed or rescheduled games were determined to contribute to work-family conflict among the athletic trainers. The study found professional socialization and burnout among athletic training students closely related. Role revolution, gaining stability, formal preparation, envisioning the role, and organizational entry are the five essential phases of professional specialization in sports medicine.

Book excerpt: Burnout is a phenomenon that is well known among a myriad of professions but a universally accepted definition as well as specific cause or causes is a point for discussion among many researchers. The definition for burnout ranges from one of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization seen in individuals who are employed in human service positions, to one of an overload of stress from the organization on any individual. For this research study the definition of burnout is a combination of multiple sources that describe the basis of the research. Burnout is a syndrome of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization accompanied by increased levels of administrative responsibilities, time commitment and work overload that can occur among certified athletic trainers. The rate of burnout among certified athletic trainers has been researched sparsely, yet the results that exist indicate that the rate of burnout has increased since the first published study in 1985. However, the research performed on burnout has yielded poor response rates as well as a continued lack of agreement on the definition, cause, and method in which to assess burnout and the increase in the responsibilities and expectations of certified athletic trainers since these studies were published indicate the need for further research on this phenomenon. The accreditation process and regulations set forth through CAAHEP, the continuing education responsibilities, the maintenance and guidance of athletes and coaches, and various illegal activities involving athletes and teams have increased the potential for burnout among certified athletic trainers. This research attempted to develop an instrument to determine the level of burnout among certified athletic trainers employed in the Big Ten Athletic Conference. This is a one shot descriptive study in which a census of the Big Ten was used and the instrument, the Athletic Training Burnout Inventory (ATBI), was mailed to every staff ATC following face and content validation. Internal consistency was determined through responses from certified athletic trainers at four Division I-A universities. For the actual study, multiple forms of communication were utilized to increase the response rate. In order to increase the response rate every institution that completed and returned all of the questionnaires was entered into a raffle to receive a $100 donation to their respective athletic training program. Descriptive statistics were reported for each of the four constructs as well as frequency data for each item within the respective construct. An independent t-test (p

Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to examine the burnout potential of certified athletic trainers (ATCs) working in the regions of Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee. To determine burnout potential, the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey was used. Permission to modify the inventory was obtained from CPP, Inc. Participants for the research study were identified by searching the NATA membership directory, state athletic training websites and state licensure websites. Sixty-seven ATCs were emailed invitations to participate. Fifty surveys were completed. Of these 50, five were eliminated from statistical analysis. Therefore, 45 surveys were satisfactorily completed producing a usable return rate of 67%. Results of the study indicated that Certified Athletic Trainers in Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee reported burnout potential that is similar to other allied health professions. Both the Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization dimensions were in the average range. However, subjects did report high Personal Accomplishment scores that were statistically significantly different from other allied health professions. A significant difference was also found between males and females in the Emotional Exhaustion dimension. No differences were identified among ATCs who worked in different employment settings. The top sources of stress for the entire population were working too many hours (33), salary (30), coaches (27), family conflict (22), and lack of physical resources (18). Even when the data were sorted by gender, many of the variables remained the same. The top 5 sources of stress for female ATCs were: coaches (16), working too many hours (11), salary (12), lack of respect (9), and lack of physical resources (9). The top sources of stress for males were too many hours (22), family conflicts (19), salary (18), coaches (11), and lack of resources (9) respectively.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athletic trainers (ATs) are allied health care professionals with the primary responsibilities of preventing, recognizing, managing and rehabilitating athletic injuries amongst a physically active population (Athletic trainer, 2015). Due to the environmental demands of this occupation, several studies have been conducted to investigate how various factors may influence the careers, health, and potential burnout of these practitioners (e.g., Kania, Meyer, & Ebersole, 2009; Kahanov, Eberman, & Juzeszyn, 2013). Clinical burnout is a psychological syndrome that is identified by three factors including, "emotional and physical exhaustion, depersonalization (cynicism), and decreased sense of personal accomplishment that develop secondary to chronic, overwhelming work demands" (Maslach, Schaufeli, & Leiter, 2001, p. 402-403). The relationship between burnout and the self-determination theory constructs of motivational regulation and basic psychological needs (BPN) satisfaction have been well studied among athletes (Cresswell & Eklund, 2005b; Deci & Ryan, 1985). In order to explore these relationships among ATs, several research questions were the focus of the current study: 1) Do burnout symptoms vary over the course of a sport season and, if so, how?, 2) Do basic psychological needs satisfaction and motivation change over the course of a sport season and, if so, how?, and 3) Are changes in burnout symptoms related to changes in basic psychological needs satisfaction and motivation? To develop answers to these questions, ATs from throughout the country were recruited to participate in an online survey that consisted of a demographic questionnaire, the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ; Raedeke & Smith, 2001), the Sport Motivation Scale (SMS;Pelletier et al., 1995), and the Work Need Satisfaction Survey (WNSS; Deci, Connell, & Ryan, 1989). Participants were e-mailed three separate times throughout the fall season and at the conclusion of each survey distribution period, descriptive statistics were performed on the demographic questionnaire, ABQ, SMS, and WNSS. In addition, a Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance (RM-ANOVA) was conducted to determine if there was any significant change in the ABQ, SMS, or WNSS responses across the season. Finally, regression analyses were conducted to determine how much variance in burnout symptoms was explained by relevant demographic information as well as SMS and WNSS variables. In general, participants scored low on burnout and adequately on BPN satisfaction and self-determined motivational profiles. The ABQ variables of reduced accomplishment and devaluation demonstrated a steady increase across the study, whereas emotional exhaustion increased from T1 to T2 but decreased during T3. Furthermore, the mean score for amotivation increased while identified regulation decreased across all three time points. More interestingly, all three forms of intrinsic motivation decreased from T1 to T3 while integrated regulation and external regulation increased from T1 to T2. Finally, all of the WNSS variables decreased from T1 to T2 and increased from T2 to T3. RM-ANOVA results did not indicate any statistically significant variation in these factors over the course of the study; however, 61.1% of the variance in the T1 total burnout scores could be explained by number of days off per week, amotivation, identified regulation, and perceived autonomy. Finally, while these ATs did not score particularly high on burnout, their supervisors should be still be aware of the symptoms and treatment methods for this condition. In addition managers should also encourage ATs to take time away from work to tend to their needs. Lastly, through BPN satisfaction, more self-determined forms of motivation should develop as a result.
