TY - JOUR TI - The Mediating Role of Job Satisfaction in the Effect of Leader-Member Exchange on Burnout: A Study on Physical Education Teachers AB - This research was carried out to examine the mediating role of job satisfaction in the effect of physical education teachers' leader-member exchange on burnout. Liden and Maslyn's (1998a) leader-member exchange, Chang and Chang's (2007) job satisfaction, and Maslach and Jackson's (1981)Maslach burnout scale were used as data collection tools to determine the level of leader-member exchange. The study group of the research consists of a total of 155 physical education teachers, who work in the Malatya and Hatay provinces of Turkey. The study group was selected with the convenience sampling method, one of the non-random sampling methods. A questionnaire was applied to the teachers participating in the research via electronic communication tools. Data from participants were analyzed using SPSS Amos 20.0. In the research, descriptive statistics, correlation and boostrap regression analysis were performed. As a result of this study, it was found that job satisfaction played a mediating role in the effect of leader-member exchange on physical education teachers' burnout levels. It can be stated that increasing physical education teachers' leader-member exchange and improving their relationships with their superiors can be effective in increasing job satisfaction and reducing burnout.
