This study addressed the questions of whether selected teacher and organizational variables contributed to (a) significant amounts of variance in teachers scores on three components of burnout, and (b) teachers' intentions to leave special education teaching. Study participants (N = 490) included a sample of respondents to a survey of all of the 1096 special education teachers in Hawaii. Instruments used in this study included the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Porter Need Satisfaction Questionnaire, and the Special Education Teacher Survey. Results of multiple regression analyses indicated that for the burnout components, Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization, relatively large and significant amounts of variance could be accounted for by a set of predictor variables. For the third burnout component, Personal Accomplishment, the variance accounted for by a set of predictor variables was significant but small. Stepwise discriminant function analysis was used to distinguish between teachers who stated they did or did not intend to leave special education teaching. Eight variables were identified as predictors of ''Intention to leave special education teaching,'' correctly classifying 73% of teachers into the appropriate ''Yes-Leaving'' and ''No-Leaving'' groups.
