Figure 3: The Level of Burnout among IPBA Lecturers according to Age Mean 4.00 3.00 2.00 1.00 0.00 3.64 3.41 1.94 1.58 2.15 1.94 Emotional Exhaustion Depersonalisation Personal Accomplishments Subscale 40 yrs & below Above 40 yrs Table 6 and Figure 4 show the level of burnout among IPBA lecturers according to teaching experience. From the table and figure, it can be seen that the mean for lecturers with 15 years of teaching experience and below is 3.99 for the EE subscale, which is 0.6 higher than the mean recorded by the lecturers with above 15 years of teaching experience. The results also show that the lecturers with lesser teaching experience score higher means in all three subscales compared to lecturers with longer teaching experience. The results indicate that the newer lecturers experience higher burnout level compared to the older lecturers. This result is consistent with the results in Table 5 where younger lecturers, who are also most probably those with lesser teaching experience, suffer higher burnout compared to the older lecturers. This finding is also consistent with findings from previous studies (Maslach, 1982b; Crane & Iwanicki, 1986; Pierce & Molloy, 1990) that found newer lecturers were more likely to experience higher burnout than more experienced ones.

As can be seen from the table, the mean for female lecturers for the EE subscale is 3.53 while the mean for the male lecturers is 3.52 giving a difference of only 0.01 between their burnout means. The results also show that for all three subscales, the difference in mean among the genders is at most 0.06. The results indicate that both genders experienced quite a similar burnout level. This finding is consistent with that of previous studies (Maslach, 1982) which reported men and women are fairly similar in their experience of burnout except that men show slightly more depersonalization burnout (as cited in Aeria, 1995).
