The study gives data on the educators’ individual tolerance/ predisposition to the emotional burnout syndrome largely determined by the individual mental factors and job-specific conditions. The study was performed at Plekhanov Russian University of Economics and Moscow Industrial Economy College. Subject to the study were 28 educators of 23-46 years of age. The study applied two sets of tests, one including the subjective scales (emotional and physical fatigue exposure scale; plus the job satisfaction scale); and the other including reference tests to rate the individual individual tolerance/ predisposition to the emotional burnouts.
The study data and analyses gave us the grounds to conclude that the individual predispositions to the emotional burnouts are largely determined by the individual mental factors and a variety of conditions, including the job-specific ones. Further studies of the emotional burnout syndrome may be beneficial for the educators’ psychophysical health protection and early burnout diagnostics and prevention initiatives.

Keywords: emotional burnout syndrome, psychophysical health, depersonalization, emotional stress, stress saturation, frustration.
