Resumen

El estudio se proponía identificar las características demográficas y profesionales asociadas con la soledad, entre un grupo de maestros brasileños, y estimar hasta qué punto están asociadas la satisfacción en el trabajo y el sentido de soledad. Los participantes fueron 1,194 maestros brasileños. Utilizando la estrategia del modelo de bola de nieve, los participantes contestaron un cuestionario en línea. Se llevaron a cabo una serie de t-tests, ANOVA, y análisis corelacionados. Los resultados sugieren que los maestros que no se inter-relacionan, los que enseñan en escuelas privadas y los que enseñan en escuelas públicas, están más propensos a sentirse solos. Estos resultados indican también que cuanto más solos se sienten los maestros, menos satisfechos están en su trabajo.
