Student flow and burnout: The role of teacher autonomy support and student autonomous motivation

Drawing on the flow theory and the self- determination theory, this study explores the predictors of students’ burnout. The sample consisted of 213 Croatian students (mean age of 20 years). Four questionnaires were administered. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that students who perceived their teachers as providing more autonomy support experience more autonomous learning motivation which, in turn, leads to more frequent flow experiences in learning and subsequently to less burnout. The study has also significant practical implications in terms that teachers should support students’ autonomy need satisfaction and facilitate students’ academic flow in order to prevent students’ burnout.
