Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the differences in burnout and turnover intention between Chinese college instructors and pre-college teachers, the relationship of teacher burnout with turnover intention, and the mediating role of teacher satisfaction in the effects of teacher burnout on turnover intention. Three major findings are reported: (a) Chinese pre-college teachers report a higher level of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization than college instructors, but there are no significant differences in reduced accomplishments; (b) there is a positive correlation between teacher burnout and turnover intention; and (c) teacher satisfaction mediates the effects of teacher burnout on turnover intention.
