IntroductionBurnout is considered a threat to the mental health of teachers and educational and organizational environments, and identifying the psychological factors affecting it is of particular importance. The purpose of this research was to investigate an structural model of relationship between covid-19 anxiety, quality of life and psychological well-being with job burnout considering the mediating role of social support. MethodThe current research method was descriptive-correlation. 365 teachers from the fourth education district of Ahvaz were selected by random sampling method as research sample. The instrument of this research included job burnout (Meslech, 1981), Covid-19 Anxiety (Alipour et al., 2018), quality of life (World Health Organization, 1996), psychological well-being (Ryff, 1989) and social support (Phillips, 1986). Evaluation of the proposed model was done through structural equation modeling and using SPSS-26 and AMOS-24 softwares. In order to test the indirect effects, the bootstrap method was used.ResultsStructural equation modeling analysis supported the fit of the proposed model with the data. The results indicated that corona disease anxiety has a significant positive effect on job burnout. Quality of life and psychological well-being have significant negative effects on job burnout. Social support has a significant negative effect on job burnout. Corona disease anxiety has a significant negative effect on social support. Quality of life and psychological well-being have significant positive effects on social support. Corona disease anxiety, quality of life, and psychological well-being through social support have significant indirect effects on job burnout. DiscussionAccording to these findings, it can be concluded that by increasing the quality of life and psychological well-being and reducing the anxiety of COVID-19, the level of social support of teachers can be increased so that these factors together provide them with conditions that reduce job burnout and in addition, maintaining and improving the mental health of teachers, it provided conditions for the organization to reduce negative consequences such as absence from work and turnover.

IntroductionThe concept of job burnout is described as a complex and long-term response to chronic emotional and interpersonal stress in the workplace, characterized by specific symptoms. It is noted that job burnout can have negative effects on individuals' emotional, mental, and physical health, as well as their work-related behaviors. The present study was conducted with the aim of Examining the relationship between job burnout, personality traits, and cognitive distortions with the mediating role of emotional regulation difficulties and cognitive fusion among nurses. )McCrae & Costa Jr, 1992(. MethodThis study is a quantitative research using structural equation modeling and descriptive research of the correlational type. The population consists of all nurses with over two years of experience in government hospitals in Kurdistan province in 2022. The sample size was estimated using the Kline method and 234 participants were chosen. The Big Five Personality Traits Questionnaire (McCrae & Costa Jr, 1992), Emotion Regulation Difficulty Scale (Gratz & Roemer, 2004), Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (Gillanders et al., 2010), Cognitive Distortions Scale (Abdullahzadeh, 2010) and Job Burnout Scale (Maslach & Jackson, 1981), were used for data collection. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling with Amos-22 software. ResultsThe findings of this study indicate that the model of examining job burnout based on personality traits and cognitive distortions with the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties and cognitive fusion fits well in nurses. Cognitive distortions (p<0.01, t=8.23), Neuroticism (p<0.01, t=5.91), emotion regulation difficulties (p<0.01, t=2.85), and cognitive fusion (p<0.01, t=2.94) have a direct and significant positive effect, while openness (p<0.01, t=-3.14) and conscientiousness (p<0.01, t=-3.75) have a direct and significant negative effect on job burnout. The results of the Sobel test showed that the indirect effect of Neuroticism (p<0.05, β=0.11) and cognitive distortions (p<0.05, β=0.07) on job burnout through emotion regulation difficulties is positive and significant. Additionally, the indirect effect of cognitive distortions (p<0.05, β=0.16) on job burnout through cognitive fusion is positive, while the indirect effects of extraversion (p<0.01, β=-0.33) and conscientiousness (p<0.01, β=-0.13) on job burnout through cognitive fusion are negative and significant. DiscussionIn this regard, selecting employees according with personality traits and cognitive abilities, along with reducing the difficulty of emotional regulation and cognitive fusion, creates a basis for reducing job burnout.

Accordingly, all members of the population formed the research sample. 263 questionnaires were returned among the distributed questionnaires. By eliminating the incomplete questionnaires, the final sample for testing the hypotheses was 242. From this sample, 185 were men. The mean and standard deviation of the age of the sample was 39.81 and 9.53, respectively, with 14.58 and 8.91 years of work experience.

In other words, job burnout had significant power in predicting mental health (β= -0.73, p < 0.001). Also, standard coefficient of regression of interaction of job burnout with psychological hardiness was significant (β= -0.58, p < 0.001). Also, the interaction of organization-based self-esteem with job burnout was significant (β= -0.28, p < 0.010,). Thus, the effects of job burnout on mental health have been moderated by psychological hardiness and organization-based self-esteem.

Musculoskeletal disorders can be considered as an important factor in relation to job burnout syndromes. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between musculoskeletal disorders and job burnout syndromes in state-owned and private hospitals in Tehran. Out of 136 hospitals, 25 hospitals (15 state-owened and 10 private) were selected by random sampling method. Participants were 234 employees (selected by convenience sampling method) of general operating rooms in state-owned and private hospitals who completed Nordic and Maslach Job Burnout Questionnaires. Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used for data analysis. Results showed that musculoskeletal disorders have significant positive relationships with emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and inefficacy. Accordingly health care systems can reduce the negative effects of musculoskeletal disorders by using ergonomics and psychological approaches and also enhance the physical and mental health of employees and society as a whole.
