Investigating of the relationship between anxiety caused by Covid-19 disease and academic burnout in Shiraz Nursing and Midwifery students

The emergence of Covid19 disease in 2019 in a short period of time caused many psychological consequences including anxiety. Anxiety caused by this disease can endanger the mental health of people in a society, including students, and cause academic burnout by disrupting the process of education and learning. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between anxiety caused by Covid-19 disease and academic burnout in students of Shiraz School of Nursing. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 343 students. Data were collected using demographic information form, Berso et al. academic burnout questionnaire and Corona disease anxiety scale questionnaire by census method and analyzed using SPSS statistical software(V22). Descriptive statistics, independent two-sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the data. The general results of this study indicate a positive correlation between the total score of Covid19 anxiety and academic burnout. The mean total score of anxiety in students was 12.24±10.19 and the mean score of academic burnout was in the range of 40.54±10.9. Based on the results, there is a statistically significant difference between the level of anxiety caused by this disease, the age of students and marital status(p<0.001). There was also no statistically significant difference between academic burnout and demographic characteristics. In general, the results of this study show that increasing the level of anxiety caused by Covid19 causes an increase in students' academic burnout. Therefore, it is recommended that educational planners be considered to increase academic motivation and improve students' mental health.
