Outline
Job burnout is a central issue in contemporary occupational research. However, existing studies have paid little attention to the burnout levels and influencing factors specific to science-communication educators. This study employed a convenience sampling method using electronic questionnaires to collect data from 115 science-communication educators across 15 natural history museums in China. It investigates the overall burnout level within this group, characteristics of group differences, and associated influencing factors. The findings indicate that science-communication educators in natural history museums experience significant job burnout. Notably, higher levels of burnout were observed among educators working in first-class museums, those with permanent institutional positions (“bianzhi nei”), males, individuals aged 31~40, those holding intermediate professional titles, and those with a monthly income exceeding 10,000 RMB. Age, physical health status, perceived work pressure, and degree of social recognition were found to significantly impact their job burnout levels. Based on the empirical results, it is recommended that natural history museums implement tiered intervention strategies targeting high-pressure subgroups. These strategies should focus on optimizing work models to alleviate the educator’s physical and mental stress, enhancing social recognition to reinforce positive feedback, thereby effectively reducing burnout levels within this population.
