The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among empowerment, job stress and burn out of female teachers. The subjects were 187 female teachers from elementary, middle, & high school. Data were collected through self-report questionnaires, which consisted of Maslash Burnout Inventory(MBI), Personal Empowerment Scale for Women(PESW), and Job Stress Scale(JSS). The data were analyzed by Pearson correlational analysis and the multiple regression analysis in SPSS/WIN program. The findings are as follows. First, the PESW total and factor scores negatively and significantly correlated with MBI, and the JSS total and factor scores positively and significantly correlated with MBI. Second, it was found that empowerment and job stress were significantly meaningful contributors of female teachers' burnout. Overall, job stress explained 30.6%, and empowerment explained 12.6% of the variance of total burnout. Third, it was found that ‘self-assertiveness’, ‘loss of dignity’, ‘bureaucratic management’, ‘self-confidence’, ‘femininity acceptance’ were significantly meaningful predictors of total burnout. Especially, ‘self-assertiveness’ was found to be the most powerful contributor, explaining 21.3% of the variance of total burnout. And ‘bureaucratic management’ and ‘self-trust’ were to be found powerful predictors of ‘emotional exhaustion’. ‘Bureaucratic management’ explained 30.9% and ‘self-trust’ explained 8.9% of the variance of emotional exhaustion. ‘Loss of dignity’ and ‘self-confidence’ were important predictors of depersonalization, each explaining 13.7%, 6.3% of the variance of depersonalization. It was found that ‘femininity acceptance’ and ‘perceived competence’ were powerful predictors of ‘low personal accomplishment’. ‘femininity acceptance’ explained 19.3% and ‘perceived competence’ explained 6.8% of the variance of ‘low personal accomplishment’. Implications and suggestions for future studies were discussed.

본 연구는 여교사들을 대상으로 임파워먼트, 직무스트레스와 소진과의 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 대구경북지역의 여교사 187명을 대상으로 여성임파워먼트척도와 직무스트레스척도, 소진척도로 구성된 설문지를 실시하였다. 자료분석을 위해서는 상관분석, 표준 중다회귀분석과 단계적 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 여교사의 임파워먼트는 소진과 부적상관을 보였고, 직무스트레스는 소진과 정적 상관을 보였다. 임파워먼트와 직무스트레스는 소진을 유의미하게 예언하였는데, 특히 임파워먼트가 성취감박탈에 높은 설명력을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 소진전체에 영향을 미치는 요인은 자기주장, 권위상실, 관료적운영, 여성성수용 요인이 유의미했으며, 자기주장이 21.3%로 가장 높은 설명력을 보였다. 정서적 고갈은 관료적운영(30.9%)과 자기신뢰 요인(8.9%)이 높은 설명력을 보였고, 비인간화는 권위상실(13.7%), 자기신뢰 요인(6.3%)이, 성취감박탈은 여성성수용(19.3%), 유능감 요인(6.8%)의 설명력이 높은 것으로 나타났다.
