Whether academics' job performance makes a difference to burnout and the effect of psychological counselling-comparison of four types of performers

Treating burnout as an independent variable while performance is the dependent variable, earlier studies revealed that job burnout experienced by academics adversely affects how well they perform. Whether performance may contribute to the emergence of burnout is yet to be analyzed-it is an issue inv...
