The present study examined the impact of three variables on academic burnout: perfectionism, depression, and leisure satisfaction. Participants included male and female college students enrolled in a four year university in the Midwest. Participants completed a variety of demographic questions and surveys through an internet survey on Survey Gizmo. The Almost Perfect Scale Revised was used to assess an individual's perfectionism, The Patient Health Questionnaire 2 measured depression, The Leisure Satisfaction Scale Short Form was included to measure students' leisure satisfaction, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student measured academic burnout. The study found that perfectionism and depression were significant predictors of burnout, while leisure satisfaction was only a significant predictor for the burnout variable of efficacy. Also, perfectionism did not moderate the relationship between leisure satisfaction and burnout. This study provides important information for counselors at university counseling centers who wish to design effective interventions for combating academic burnout in college students.
