Stress, Burnout in Texas Teachers and Reform Mandated Accountability.

Lutz, Frank W.; Maddirala, James

Educational Research Quarterly, v14 n2 p10-21 1990

The effects of educational reform policies in Texas were studied as they relate to teacher burnout. A survey was mailed to 3,000 teachers. In all, 700 teachers responded, and interviews were conducted with about 120 of them. Teachers experienced considerable emotional exhaustion, and the effects of paperwork were significant. (SLD)
