Sažetak
The aim of the study was to investigate the occurrence of burnout syndrome in student teachers in STEM subjects at the Faculty of Science in Split. The study sample consisted of 85 students from different teacher education programmes, of which 59 were female and 26 male. The research instrument used was a questionnaire containing the Maslach Burnout Inventory - Student Survey (MBI-SS) scale, which uses 16 items to examine the occurrence of burnout
syndrome in students. A high level of burnout was observed in 25% of the respondents on the Emotional Exhaustion subscale, as well as in 19% of the respondents on the Cynicism subscale
and in 27% of the respondents on the Academic Self-Efficacy subscale. Statistical analysis showed that there were no significant differences in the occurrence of burnout in relation to gender and type of study, while for certain items, there was a statistically significant difference in relation to the year of study. Considering the Academic Self-Efficacy subscale, statistically significant differences were observed between the biology-chemistry and computer science, as well as biology-chemistry and computer science-technics degree programmes. The study found that student teachers at the Faculty of Science in Split have a moderate level of burnout, indicating the need to introduce preventive programmes to improve the psychological well-being of these students to better equip them for their future careers in the teaching profession.
