The aim of this study is to compare school counselors' experiences of burnout across two types of working environment.The sample for this survey-based research comprised 215 counselors, 72 working in preschool institutions and 143 in primary schools.Data were collected using a Demographic Information Form designed by the researchers and Maslach Burnout Inventory, and analyzed through independent samples t-tests and two-way ANOVAs.Data analysis established that there was a statistically significant difference in the respondents' Emotional Exhaustion sub-scales, according to the educational level of the children they worked with.Specifically, those counselors working in primary schools were more susceptible to burnout than those working in preschools there were no statistically significant differences in burnout level associated with the respondents' gender, age, or marital status in any of the sub-scales (i.e., Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization and Personal Accomplishment); nor was there any statistically significant interaction effect of school type with the counselors' gender, age or marital status.
