Abstract: This cross-sectional, descriptive study aimed to identify the prevalence and risk of burnout in Brazilian elite young tennis players, using a multiple-case approach. A total of 130 participants were recruited using a random, non-probabilistic method, based on participation in 2 international tournaments. The Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ) was used to measure burnout in the players. The results showed that 10% of the athletes (n = 13) had a moderate risk of burnout, 3.1% had a high risk, and 2.3% showed signs of burnout. Analysis of the categories of players with a high risk of burnout and those with signs of burnout showed that there were ve categories: recurrent burnout, burnout in career transition, changes in burnout level, burnout related to high expectations, and burnout related to overtraining. The findings of the study reinforce recent models showing that athlete burnout is a complex phenomenon that can manifest in different ways, depending on the athlete’s characteristics and life experiences in the sport.

Abstract: O objetivo do estudo foi investigar se o tempo de prática como atleta federado influencia a percepção das dimensões da síndrome de burnout em esportes de combate. A amostra foi composta por 36 atletas, todos do sexo masculino, praticantes de modalidades esportivas de combate. O instrumento utilizado foi o Questionário de Burnout para Atletas (QBA). Os dados foram analisados por meio de estatística descritiva e inferencial. Os resultados mostraram que os atletas estão em condições desejáveis do ponto de vista psicofisiológico. A dimensão exaustão física e emocional apresentou os menores indicadores (1,4), sendo significativamente menor quando comparada à dimensão reduzido senso de realização esportiva (2,0) (p=0.004), indicando a ausência de sobrecarga psicofisiológica. No entanto, ao considerarmos o tempo de prática dos participantes, a dimensão reduzido senso de realização esportiva foi significativamente maior nos atletas menos experientes (p=0,02). Portanto, atletas menos experientes apresentaram os maiores indicadores nesta dimensão, o que demanda cuidado no estabelecimento de metas nos anos iniciais para os atletas de modalidades esportivas de combate.

Abstract: A mobile application to monitor heart rate (HR) during an exercise called Chromozone was developed to enable a user to regulate exercise intensity using a color-coded system rather than numerical display in the most conventional device. In this study, the agreement of HR from Chromozone was compared against the HR dataset from a clinically accepted electrocardiogram (ECG) on different exercise intensity and to assess its reliability by intra-day repeated assessments. Additionally, the usability aspect of the Chromozone smartphone application was also assessed. Forty-two participants underwent self-selected exercise intensities (based on individual HR reserve) included for 5-min followed by a cool-down period (3-min). A 20-min rest period was given to the participant before repeating the same exercise protocol two more times. Chromozone was found to generate excellent criterion-concurrent validity (r = 0.998, p < 0.001) and acceptable bias of 1.96 bpm (Limits of Agreement; LoA: 3.07 to -3.51) for relative and absolute agreement, respectively. Similarly, relative (intraclass correlation coefficient test: 0.998, p < 0.001) and absolute (within-subject coefficient of variation: 1.95 ± 1.4%) reliability using Chromozone application shows an excellent consistency. Additionally, this study also showed that the usability level of the Chromozone application is beyond the satisfactory level. The outcome of this work provides strong support for Chromozone application as a valid and reliable exercise HR monitoring tool that could potentially help athletes, active individuals as well as the clinical population to monitor and regulate their exercise training regime more effectively.

Abstract: A scale designed to assess various aspects of the burnout syndrome was administered to a wide range of human services professionals. Three subscales emerged from the data analysis: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. Various psychometric analyses showed that the scale has both high reliability and validity as a measure of burnout.

TL;DR: A psychometrically sound measure of athlete burnout was developed that correlated positively with stress, trait anxiety, and amotivation, and correlated negatively with coping, social support, enjoyment, commitment, and intrinsic motivation indices across the two studies.

Abstract: The purpose of this research was to develop a psychometrically sound measure of athlete burnout. In Study 1, exploratory factor analysis revealed burn-out dimensions reflective of emotional/physical exhaustion, reduced sense of swimming accomplishment, and swimming devaluation. In two subsequent studies, the psychometric properties of a refined version of this measure were examined. Independent samples of senior age-group swimmers and college athletes from a variety of sports completed a questionnaire that tapped the three burnout dimensions as well as stress- and motivation-related variables. Confirmatory factor analysis and alternative model testing supported the specified three-factor burnout model. In support of construct validity, the burnout subscales correlated positively with stress, trait anxiety, and amotivation, and correlated negatively with coping, social support, enjoyment, commitment, and intrinsic motivation indices across the two studies.

...Burnout is considered a multidimensional construct that manifests in athletes through three dimensions: physical and emotional exhaustion, with a sensation of physical and mental fatigue as a result of excessive training or competition; devaluation, with negative feelings and attitudes toward the sport; and a reduced sense of accomplishment as increasing dissatisfaction and frustration with sport performance (Raedeke and Smith, 2001; Raedeke and Smith, 2009)....

TL;DR: In this article, a cognitive-affective model of stress and burnout is used to define the conditions under which withdrawal from a sport can be attributed to burnout, and its implications for preventing and coping with burnout are discussed.

...read moreread less

Abstract: Although athletic burnout is a frequent topic of discussion and speculation, little in the way of a conceptual model or empirical data currently exists. An attempt is made to incorporate what is known about the nature, causes, and consequences of burnout within a cognitive-affective model of stress and to note the parallel situational, cognitive, physiologic, and behavioral components of stress and burnout. Thibaut and Kelley's social exchange model is used to define the conditions under which withdrawal from a sport can be attributed to burnout. Empirical findings concerning the causes and consequences of burnout derived from nonathletic populations are incorporated within the athletic burnout model, and its implications for preventing and coping with burnout are discussed. A number of conceptual and methodological issues are discussed, including operationalizing and measuring athletic burnout, the need for epidemiological research, and the assessment of causal and moderator variables. Based upon the lit...
