I experienced #burnout pretty bad during the pandemic (especially the first few months when I was trying to homeschool and adapt all my work to a remote platform).
A study of 17,000 parents in 42 countries around the world discovered that burnout varied drastically by country, based on the differences in Eastern and Western cultural values. https://t.co/nBJQWLX38P.
Another study confirmed those findings, but the did find one commonality: parents of school-age kids reporting much higher rates of burnout! Working parents who were also the primary caregiver were 4X as likely to suffer as working parents who werenโt simultaneously tending the children
This article explains why this pattern is so bad and offers some modest suggestions for improvement.

PhD process was some of the very best years of my life. Incredible mentor, amazing friends and colleagues, collaboration, creativity, and tons of fun. I would do it again starting tomorrow.
I feel for those who have a less enjoyable experience but it can be great & worth it.
Loved my PhD โ the peers, the professors, even the place โค๏ธ and my husband reminds me regularly (usually when Iโm complaining about something) that Iโm luckier than most people because I genuinely love my jobโฆ so 100% Iโd struggle thru all the hard parts to do it again

@DrEBrauner I would love to see real change in how we evaluate scholarly impact. Unfortunately, I think the current metrics are here until we can come to a consensus on the change.
