Abstract

Aim: Burnout is a negative state of physical, emotional, and mental fatigue that is associated with a deep sense of failure at work. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the role of cognitive regulation of emotion and dysphoria in burnout of librarians of public libraries in Semnan province in 1399.
Methodology: The method of the present study was descriptive and analytical survey. The statistical population in this study consisted of librarians of public libraries in Semnan province, whose number was 110 people. Questionnaires were provided to all librarians and 100 questionnaires were completed and collected. Data were collected using three standard questionnaires of burnout, cognitive emotion regulation, and dysphoria. Research data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression.
Finding: The findings showed that there is a significant relationship between burnout and cognitive regulation of emotion and its subscale and the highest correlation in subscales is related to evaluation. There is also a significant relationship between burnout and dysplasia and its subscale, and the highest correlation in subscales is related to the difficulty in identifying emotions. Studies have also shown that the variables of cognitive regulation of emotion and dysphoria both explain and predict burnout.
Conclusion: The results of the present study revealed the relationship between cognitive regulation of emotion and dysphoria in burnout of librarians in public libraries in Semnan province. It is suggested that these factors be used in educational programs as effective factors related to burnout in librarians.
