MARTINEZ RAMON, Juan Pedro. How secondary school teachers protect themselves from stress: burnout and coping strategies. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.1, pp.1-9. ISSN 2174-0534.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rpto.2015.02.001.

The aim of this cross-sectional study with an ex post facto design was to study the way secondary school teachers defend themselves from stress by analyzing the relationship between burnout and coping strategies in a sample of 221 teachers from public and private/state-subsidized schools in the municipality of Murcia. To do this, we applied a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and the Stress Coping Questionnaire (CAE in Spanish). The results of the descriptive and inferential analysis show that negative self-targeting strategies (NST) and open emotional expression (OEE) are associated more with the presence of the syndrome, in contrast to the focus on solving the problem (FSP) and positive reappraisal (PR) that are associated with greater personal fulfillment at work. In conclusion, identifying the strategies that are associated with burnout or lack of it will allow the design of more adjusted prevention programs.
