Along with the teaching, institutional, and administrative responsibilities, female academicians carry out some other roles such as motherhood, being a wife, having responsibilities related to household issues, as well. Researchers of the study--from the very inside of the academy as females with many different roles--had the urge to examine the case of female academicians. The study investigated the case of female academicians--the relationship of burnout with workaholism mediated by work-family life conflict. On quantitative research design, a questionnaire was conducted on 207 female academicians of a state university. Frequency distribution, explanatory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis, and SEM were carried out. It was found out that 23% of work-family life conflict was related to workaholism; 32% of burnout was related to workaholism; 19% of burnout was related to work-family life conflict. Along with the purpose of the study, 11% of the female academicians' burnout was found to be resulting from the effect of workaholism mediated by work-family life conflict. As female academicians were found to be victims of burnout resulting from workaholism mediated by work-family life conflict; female academicians should be supported by seminars, trainings, and guidance on self-confidence, time and stress management, raising awareness towards workaholism, strategies to cope with burnout. Further studies should be on the underlying reasons of the issue.
