Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine if a relationship exists between hardiness and burnout in female liberal arts/science faculty and female faculty in nursing. Degrees of hardiness were determined for each group with attention to the dimensions of commitment, control, and challenge. Degrees of burnout were determined for each group with attention to the components of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. The two groups were compared to determine if the levels of hardiness and burnout in faculty members were related to the area of teaching responsibility, and demographic characteristics.
