Özet:

The present comparative study has investigated whether the fact that EC teachers in the U.S. and Turkey do the same job in different conditions exerts a positive and/or negative influence on their state of job satisfaction and burnout. The study was structured within correlational survey methodology. Participants were EC teachers recruited from the province of Konya in Turkey and Buffalo in New York State. When looked at job satisfaction and burnout levels of the participants in the U.S. and Turkey, results point to a significant difference in the mental burnout and internal satisfaction sub-dimensions in favor of the participants in Turkey. When job satisfaction and burnout levels were examined according to the number of years of occupational seniority, emotional burnout score averages, total burnout scores and external satisfaction score averages of the participants in Turkey were found to be higher than the participants in the U.S
