Parental educational level was scored on a 4-point scale: 0 = elementary school or uncompleted elementary school, 1 = lower level of secondary or vocational education, 2 = medium level of secondary or vocational education and 3 = higher level of vocational education or university.
The authors contend that this milieu, and other factors, create high levels of vocational stress and may generate high levels of burnout.
Analyses were conducted on the overall data, and with stratification by gender and by three educational levels (low level classified as none and primary school; middle level as secondary school; and high level as vocational school or university/college).
* High educational level: higher vocational education or university.
* Educational level is defined as: low: primary school, lower general secondary school, lower vocational school, or less; intermediate: high school or medium level vocational school; high: college or university degree.
Level of education was divided in three categories: lower education (primary school, lower general secondary school, lower vocational school, or less), intermediate level education (high school or medium level vocational school), or higher education (university or college degree).
164 students of different education levels (Junior high: 89; High vocational: 75) engaged in ER learning activities (2 hours per week, 11 weeks totally) and their CT skills were evaluated at different phases during the activity, using different modality (written and oral) assessment tools.
** Low = less than 16 years at school (i.e. no high level technical or vocational training for 16+ years).
