EFFECT OF SELF EFFICACY AND WORK MOTIVATION ON EMOTIONAL BURNOUT IN EMPLOYEES

RAKSHITA BISHT*, MS. KRITI BHARGAVA

Abstract

Self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their ability to successfully accomplish a specific task or achieve a particular goal. It influences motivation, behavior, and resilience. High self-efficacy leads to greater persistence and effort in the face of challenges, while low self-efficacy can undermine performance and well-being. Work motivation encompasses the factors that drive individuals to engage in and persist with work-related tasks, goals, and activities within organizational settings. Emotional burnout is a state of exhaustion and detachment resulting from prolonged stress, leading to reduced motivation, empathy, and effectiveness in work or personal life. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between self efficacy, work motivation and emotional burnout among employees. General Self Efficacy scale, Work Motivation Questionnaire and Maslach Burnout Inventory were administered on a sample of 130 (male=74, female=56) working adults all over India. The correlation between Self Efficacy, Work Motivation and Emotional Burnout was studied using Pearson’s correlation.
