ProQuest LLC, D.Ed. Dissertation, University of Oregon
This study explored the perspectives and experiences of full-time K-6 teachers in primary schools in rural Oregon during the 2023-2024 academic year to gain a deeper understanding of a common phenomenon, burnout, in a commonly overlooked research setting, rural localities, in the aftermath of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The primary researcher utilized an adapted version of The Professional Quality of Life Scale (Pro-QOL-5) (quantitative) to explore the perspectives and experiences of full-time K-6 teachers in rural Oregon during the 2023-2024 academic year to gain a deeper understanding of burnout in rural schools in the wake of the COVID-19. The results of the quantitative exploratory study found no statistical significance of burnout in teachers in Title I and Non-Title schools in rural areas however varying degrees of compassion satisfaction, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress offer a snapshot of teachers' working conditions in rural Oregon in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
