Abstract | Research on the extent of stress and burnout among special education administrators is not as well developed as research on the extent of stress and burnout among teachers. This study utilized the Maslach Burnout Inventory to determine levels of stress and burnout among administrators of special education. Results indicated administrators of special education had above-average levels of emotional exhaustion, average levels of depersonalization, and above-average feelings of personal accomplishment and were more emotionally exhausted than professionals in teaching, postsecondary education, social services, mental health, or medicine. This study suggests it is important for special education administrators to take a preventative approach in order to reduce the emotional exhaustion of the job. (Contains 1 figure and 2 tables.)
