ABSTRACT Researchers have examined burnout and depression in athletes, yet there are no investigations of the relationship of these two constructs in intercollegiate athletes. This study examined potential gender and sport-type differences (team versus individual) in the strength of the relationship between sport burnout and depression. Participants were 422 intercollegiate athletes from 19 sports. Participants completed burnout and depression surveys as well as a depressive symptom checklist. There were moderate to strong positive correlations between burnout symptoms and depression and there were significant regression models for both genders and sport types. Some gender and sport-type differences emerged. Additionally, 47% of participants who reported previously experiencing burnout also reported five or more concurrent depressive symptoms. Based on the results, sport burnout should be considered a serious mental health concern. Results are discussed in terms of screening and treatment for athlete subgroups and the conceptualization of burnout as a psychological construct.

大学生间职业倦怠与抑郁之间的关系：性别和运动类型的检验

摘要研究人员研究了运动员的倦怠和沮丧情绪，但尚未对大学间运动员中这两种结构的关系进行调查。这项研究检查了运动倦怠和抑郁之间关系的强度，潜在的性别和运动类型差异（团队与个人）。参加者是来自19个运动项目的422名大学生。参与者完成了倦怠和抑郁调查以及抑郁症状清单。倦怠症状与抑郁之间存在中等至强正相关，并且性别和运动类型均具有显着的回归模型。出现了一些性别和体育类型差异。此外，以前报告有倦怠经历的参与者中有47％还报告了五个或更多并发性抑郁症状。根据结果​​，运动倦怠应被视为严重的心理健康问题。从对运动员亚组的筛查和治疗以及将倦怠作为一种心理建构的概念来讨论结果。
