The percentage of participants who showed the presence of the syndrome was 15 teachers (Profile 1) (21.4%), and 1 (1.4%) teacher (Profile 2) affected by higt feelings of Guilt. The highest level was Psychological exhaustion 28.2% and Indolence 17.1%. Teachers affected by burnout-SQT- are mostly between 41 to 50 years (58%), 24% are married or living with a partner whereas 25% are unmarried; 40% have been teaching between 21 to 25 years.
