Correlational descriptive research shows significant links between social anxiety, academic burnout, and school avoidance behavior in high school students.
Key Points
School avoidance behavior is significantly predicted by both social anxiety and academic burnout.
The strongest predictor was academic burnout, which had a beta coefficient of β = .49, p < .001.
Descriptive and correlational analyses were conducted on data from 392 high school students.
Findings suggest that intervention strategies should target academic burnout to mitigate school avoidance behavior.
