Identifier	Thesis 1753
Author	Colangelo, Tina M., 1971-
Title	Teacher Stress and Burnout and the Role of Physical Activity and Parent Involvement
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2004
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	Teacher stress and burnout have emerged over the past 20 years as a serious concern for teachers, students and parents. This study tested the hypothesis that teachers who participate in aerobic exercise and have increased parent involvement in their classrooms will have lower stress and consequently are significantly less likely to experience burnout and job dissatisfaction. One hundred sixty elementary school teachers from across the state of Connecticut were given 56-item surveys that contained the following four components: The Kyriacou & Sutcliffe's (1978) Teacher Stress inventory, Maslach's (1986) Burnout inventory, the Bay Areas School Reform questionnaire (2001) consisting of the section on teacher and parent outreach and parent involvement, and Reuben & Solomon's (1989) Physical Advanced Activities of Daily Living. One hundred surveys were returned and used in the correlational study. The results provided some support for both hypotheses. The means and standard deviations for each scale are found in Table 1. The results found that teachers who participated in moderate physical activity reported less stress (see Table 2). The data also suggest that teachers who have positive relationships with parents expressed less burnout (see Table 3). These findings are congruent with the theory that teachers who complete moderate physical activity and have strong teacher and parent relationships will be less likely to experience stress and burnout. Future research should examine school districts that provide exercise programs for their teachers. It is also important to examine the effects exercise has on an individual's physiology. Finally, more research needs to be conducted on in-service programs that help parents and teachers better communicate.
