Burnout and Paths to Turnover Intentions among South African Sport Coaches
Journal Title: Montenegrin Journal of Sports Science and Medicine - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Th is study investigated burnout and turnover intentions among 119 South African sport coaches (78 males and 38 females) aged 18 to 64 years (M = 30.28, SD = 9.83 years), who were recruited to participate in the study. Data were collected using the Maslach Burnout Inventory and Turnover Intentions Questionnaire. Th e results showed that sport coaches reported low levels of emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment, with the exception of depersonalization, demonstrating that sport coaches were less burned out. Of the three subscales of burnout, the highest signifi cant correlation was observed between emotional exhaustion and turnover (r = .227, p < .01). Th e practical implications of the fi ndings are discussed, and recommendations for future research are provided.
