Resumen
La pandemia de COVID-19 representó retos no solo para la salud física sino también para la salud mental. En China, migrantes de varias profesiones terminaron aislados en varias configuraciones de cuarentena y otras medidas contra la pandemia. El estudio actual se enfocó en docentes migrantes en Zhuhai, China, usando datos de encuestas para investigar el papel del sentido de coherencia (SOC) contra síntomas del síndrome de burnout. Se detectó una correlación moderada de .583 (p < .001) entre estrés y burnout y una correlación negativa y moderada entre SOC y burnout de -.541 (p < .001), apoyando las primeras hipótesis del estudio. Una tercera hipótesis, sobre el efecto de moderación por el SOC no pudo ser analizada debido al tamaño y la naturaleza de la muestra estadística. Estos hallazgos subrayan la importancia y retos de fomentar un SOC que puede mitigar los impactos negativos del estrés laboral excesivo.
