SOLERA HERNANDEZ, Eva; GUTIERREZ GOMEZ-CALCERRADA, Sonia  and  PALACIOS-CENA, Domingo. Psychological Assessment of Burnout Syndrome in Teachers of Primary Education in the Community of Madrid: Comparison between Public and Concerted Centers. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.3, pp.246-254. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-3.epsb.

The study objective was to explore the psychic state of Primary Education teachers of several public and concerted centers of the community of Madrid. We evaluated anxiety and depression symptoms and burnout syndrome using the HADS scale and the Burnout Questionnaire of teachers. The results indicated that, although concerted schools teachers report more symptoms anxious, teachers of public schools have a greater presence of the Burnout syndrome in the scales of organizational issues, supervision and recognition. It is evident that the primary education teachers are high-risk professionals, despite the fact that the studies have focused mainly in Secondary Education.
