Abstract

Burnout

The purpose of this study was to determine if there are statistically

significant relationships between academic advisors’ demographic characteristics,

advising-related variables, burnout, and risk for mental health disorders, such as

generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) or major depressive disorder (MDD). In

February 2023, we conducted a national survey of academic advisors (n = 1,598).

Advisors with higher levels of burnout had increased odds of experiencing MDD

and GAD symptoms. Resilience was significantly correlated with lower MDD,

GAD, and burnout levels.
