Artykuł prezentuje wyniki badania dotyczącego identyfikacji źródeł stresu zawodowego i wypalenia zawodowego w środowisku akademickim na przykładzie kadry trzech rumuńskich uczelni. Badanie przeprowadzono na próbie 70 nauczycieli akademickich. Szczególny nacisk położono na różnice w doświadczaniu stresu ze względu na płeć i wiek. Za najbardziej stresogenne uznano: obciążenie pracą, niskie wynagrodzenie, trudności z uzyskaniem awansu zawodowego, ingerencja zawodowa w życie rodzinne, konflikt między pracą badawczą a dydaktyką.
