| description | Fear of success is derived from lack of trust and confidence in one's own personality. To
be in doubt of one's self and to be anxious about other's expectations, exists constantly in
the thought and behavior of working women. This, on its own, is a great source of anxiety
and sets the foundation of continuous job stress. Burnout is a response to chronic job
stress. It is a gradual erosion and feeling of failure, and being worn out. This paper aims
to investigate the relationship between fear of success and burnout among working
women in Iranian public schools. Moreover, it examines whether fear of success and
burnout are related to some demographic characteristics such as age, years of service,
marital status, academic background and organizational rank. The results reveal that
fear of success and burnout in women working in public schools are correlated; but there
are no significant differences in levels of fear of success and/or burnout relative to
demographic factors. |
