{Reference Type}: Journal Article {Title}: Towards the role of apprehension and anxiety as antecedents of EFL students' burnout. {Author}: Ren L; {Journal}: Heliyon {Volume}: 10 {Issue}: 4 {Year}: 2024 Feb 29 {Factor}: 3.776 {DOI}: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25777 {Abstract}: How students experience the learning process is of great importance because it affects the enthusiasm they feel during this process. Although many studies have been conducted on apprehension, anxiety, and burnout in both teachers and students, few focus on the relationship between these three variables. To this end, the three variables in this review study are first defined. Then, the relationship between EFL learners' apprehension and their anxiety and burnout is discussed. It seems that the more apprehensive and anxious one feels, the more likely they feel burned out. Finally, the implications of this study and suggestions for further studies are presented.
