ABSTRACT

“Boreout” is a psychological state of intense boredom and apathy. It occurs when a task lacks mental stimuli (i.e., menial tasks). Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged and excessive stress. Boreout and burnout are inversely related concepts with similar antecedents and consequences. Tourism and hospitality scholars and practitioners are desperate to understand the potential antecedents and consequences of boreout as well as mediators and moderators. Due to the scarcity of boreout-related studies, this meta-review identifies variables associated with burnout and cross-fertilizes their relevance in the boreout domain. A total of 111 articles published between 1990 and 2020 were reviewed, several applicable research propositions and theoretical frameworks are prescribed, and conclusions as to future directions for research on boreout are highlighted.

摘要

“无聊”是一种极度无聊和冷漠的心理状态。当一项任务缺乏精神刺激（即卑微的任务）时，就会发生这种情况。倦怠是一种由长期和过度压力引起的情绪、身体和精神疲惫的状态。倦怠和倦怠是反向相关的概念，具有相似的前因和后果。旅游和酒店业的学者和从业者迫切希望了解无聊的潜在前因和后果以及调解人和调解人。由于钻孔相关研究的稀缺性，这项元评论确定了与倦怠相关的变量，并交叉施肥它们在钻孔领域的相关性。审查了1990年至2020年间共发表的111篇文章，规定了几个适用的研究命题和理论框架，
