Burnout, Perceived Stress, and Resources Among Educated, Working Jews and Moslem Arabs in Israel

A Cross-Cultural Perspective

Bar Ilan University

This study deals with differences in levels of burnout and in the variables that explain it (perceived stress, personal resources, and social resources) among 109 Jews and 122 Moslem Arabs belonging to dual-earner families in Israel. Levels of burnout and variables that explain it are similar for the Jews and Moslem Arabs. The variables that most significantly explain levels of burnout in the two sociocultural contexts are hardiness, perceived stress, and gender.

Key Words: sociocultural context • culture • burnout • flextime arrangements • hardiness.
