Revisiting Burnout among Special Education Teachers: Do Age, Experience, and Preparation Still Matter?

Zabel, Robert H.; Zabel, Mary Kay

Teacher Education and Special Education, v24 n2 p128-39 Spr 2001

A replication of a study conducted nearly 20 years ago investigated teacher burnout among 300 special education teachers. Teachers' age, amount of experience, and preparation had markedly increased since the previous study. Age, experience, certification status, and preparation were not as significantly related to burnout as in the past. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
