It has also been observed that tobacco consumption (TC) is higher during stressful events. However, there is little evidence about the association between EE and TC among teachers. A total of n = 560 teachers took part in this study, where 71.79% (n = 402) were women. For data gathering, the EE dimension of the Maslach Inventory for teachers was used, along with a TC questionnaire and the sociodemographic data of the participants. A binary logistical regression model was used for statistical analysis. Regarding TC, over 30% of teachers declared that they smoked; 65% of the teachers presented medium-high EE and 31% of teachers presented high EE. Teachers who said they were smokers had a greater risk of presenting high EE (OR: 1.7, p &lt; 0.05), along with younger teachers (\u226444 years; OR: 2.1, p &lt; 0.01). In addition, teachers with high EE also have a high risk of TC. The present study reports an association between TC and high EE category among teachers, regardless of gender. An important association is also observed between the under-45 age group and high EE. These results indicate that teachers should have psychological support and interventions aiding them with facing work stress and TC habits, especially for younger teachers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph19052606","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,24]],"date-time":"2022-02-24T07:22:35Z","timestamp":1645687355000},"page":"2606","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Association between Emotional Exhaustion and Tobacco Consumption in Teachers"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Alexis","family":"Portilla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Epidemiology and Morphological Sciences, Instituto de Biolog\u00eda, Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, Valpara\u00edso 2373223, Chile"},{"name":"Programa de Mag\u00edster en Did\u00e1ctica de las Ciencias Experimentales, Facultad de Ciencias, Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, Valpara\u00edso 2373223, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0977-7890","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda Fernanda","family":"Meza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Epidemiology and Morphological Sciences, Instituto de Biolog\u00eda, Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, Valpara\u00edso 2373223, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9366-6930","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pablo A.","family":"Lizana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Epidemiology and Morphological Sciences, Instituto de Biolog\u00eda, Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, Valpara\u00edso 2373223, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1015","DOI":"10.3233\/WOR-203351","article-title":"Low interest in physical activity and higher rates of obesity among rural teachers","volume":"67","author":"Lizana","year":"2020","journal-title":"Work"},{"key":"ref_2","unstructured":"Robalino, M., and K\u00f6rner, A.
