Different psychological variables have recently been discovered as enablers of the burnout syndrome. Moreover, it must be added the high prevalence rates of the syndrome on international sportspeople. The aim of the paper was to establish the prevalence rate of the syndrome in the Spanish sportspeople and to analyze its relationship with the perception of body image. 397 sportspeople took part in the research (59.8% men) aged between 13 and 64 years old (M = 19.23 and SD = 6.67) of different sports (35% individual sports). The results show a prevalence rate of burnout syndrome in the context of national sports 2.77% and the existence of a relationship between the syndrome and a negative body image perception, especially with the dimensions of devaluation (rxy = 0.336) and reduced sense of accomplishment (rxy = 0.44). Moreover, using SEM, negative body image could be proposed as a psychological consequence added to those derived from the syndrome itself. |
