Abstract

Introduction: Burnout and engagement are pivotal for adolescents' well-being and have received extensive attention in the educational literature. However, less is known about how these factors develop and interact within and between school and sport when adolescent athletes follow dual (school and sport) careers. The aim of this study was to examine the reciprocal relationship between engagement and burnout in school and sport through a cross-lagged analysis of longitudinal associations.

Methods: A sample of 165 Finnish adolescent athletes (aged 14.5 years, 48.9% girls) enrolled in lower secondary sport schools (i.e., junior high schools) participated in a survey in spring 2019 (i.e., in Grade 8) and 1 year later, in spring 2020 (i.e., in Grade 9).

Results: Engagement and burnout had significant autoregressive relationships within school and sport. Furthermore, low levels of sport engagement in Grade 8 predicted sport burnout in Grade 9, and low levels of school burnout in Grade 8 predicted school engagement in Grade 9. Regarding cross-domain effects, high levels of school engagement in Grade 8 predicted low levels of sport engagement in Grade 9.

Conclusions: The study shows that school and sport are distinct domains with unique associations between engagement and burnout in each domain. It also shows that adolescent athletes may maintain high school engagement by reducing their sport engagement. These findings highlight the need for sport school practitioners to develop intervention programs to address adolescents' school and sport needs and to support their holistic well-being.

揭示体育院校青少年运动员职业倦怠与参与之间的纵向相互关系。

引言倦怠和参与对青少年的福祉至关重要，在教育文献中受到广泛关注。然而，当青少年运动员从事双重（学校和体育）职业时，这些因素是如何在学校和体育运动内部及之间发展和相互作用的，人们对此知之甚少。本研究的目的是通过对纵向关联的跨滞后分析，研究在学校和体育运动中参与和倦怠之间的相互关系：165名芬兰青少年运动员（14.5岁，48.9%为女生）在初中体育学校（即初级中学）就读，他们分别参加了2019年春季（即八年级）和一年后的2020年春季（即九年级）的调查：在学校和体育运动中，参与度和倦怠感存在明显的自回归关系。此外，8 年级的体育参与度低预示着 9 年级的体育倦怠，8 年级的学校倦怠低预示着 9 年级的学校参与度。在跨领域效应方面，八年级的高水平学校参与预测了九年级的低水平体育参与：这项研究表明，学校和体育是两个不同的领域，每个领域的参与度和职业倦怠之间都有独特的联系。研究还表明，青少年运动员可能会通过减少体育锻炼来保持较高的学校参与度。这些研究结果突出表明，体育学校从业人员有必要制定干预计划，以满足青少年在学校和体育运动方面的需求，并支持他们的全面发展。
