Maslach Burnout Inventory – General Survey: Factorial validity and invariance among Romanian healthcare professionals

Burnout Research, 2014

This study tested the dimensionality of the Maslach Burnout Inventory -General Survey (MBI-GS) on a sample of 1190 Romanian healthcare professionals from three county hospitals. Data provided evidence to support the hypothesised three-factor model after removing one item from the cynicism scale: 2 (86) = 432.29, CFI = .94, GFI = .95, NFI = .93, and RMSEA = .05. Results of multigroup analysis confirmed the invariance of the 15 items model across professional role, gender, age, and organisational tenure. Structural equation modeling results proved specific relations between occupational factors and burnout dimensions. Our results have practical implications for future research on burnout using the MBI-GS among samples of healthcare professionals.

The Bifactor Model of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS)-An Alternative Measurement Model of Burnout

Stress and Health

The purpose of the present study was to examine the construct validity of the Hungarian language version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS). A sample of 653 healthcare professionals (420 physicians and 233 nurses and nursing assistants) completed the MBI-HSS. A series of confirmatory factor analyses showed that a hierarchical bifactor model including a global burnout factor and three specific factors of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduced personal accomplishment had the closest fit to the data, compared with an alternative second-order three-factor hierarchical model as well as to non-hierarchical one-factor, two-factor, three-factor, four-factor and five-factor models. However, only the global burnout factor and the specific personal accomplishment factor explained a considerable unique proportion of variance in observed scores. Our study confirms the validity of the MBI-HSS and suggests an alternative structural model, which may contri...

Structure and psychometric properties of the maslach burnout inventory in croatian nurses

2021

Introduction: The role of nurses in healthcare is of great importance for the well-being of patients. Nurses are exposed to daily stress in the workplace due to the lack of staff, irregular working hours, and lack of support from the management. Such conditions greatly affect the emotional and psychological health of nurses. This study aims to explore the factor structure of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) on the Croatian sample of nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional study on the sample of 119 nurses, using the MBI scale to assess burn-out in nurses. Results: The reliability of individual subscales expressed by Cronbach’s alpha coefficients showed that all three scales meet the criterion of internal consistency of 0.832. The obtained coefficients of internal consistency are 0.860 for the dimension of emotional exhaustion, 0.809 for the dimension of depersonalization, and 0.791 for the dimension of personal accomplishment. Conclusion: According to this research and comparative res...

The Burnout Syndrome in Medical Academia: Psychometric Properties of the Serbian Version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory—Educators Survey

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health

The aim of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Maslach Burnout Inventory—Educators Survey (MBI-ES). The presence of burnout syndrome, its relationship with personality traits, intention to change career and work abroad were assessed in a cross-sectional multi-center trial conducted among educators at three medical faculties in the Western Balkans during 2019. Translation and cultural adaptation were made based on internationally accepted principles. Personality traits were assessed by the Big Five Plus Two questionnaire. In total, 246 medical faculty members, predominantly females (61%), were enrolled. The three-factor structure of the MBI-ES questionnaire (exhaustion, cynicism, and professional efficacy) was validated. Analysis of internal consistency yielded a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.785, indicating scale reliability. The majority of respondents (85.6%) reported moderate level of burnout. Aggressiveness, neuroticism, and negative valence were associated with ...

High rate of burnout among anaesthesiologists in Belgrade teaching hospitals: Results of a cross-sectional survey

European journal of anaesthesiology, 2015

Decisions by anaesthesiologists directly impact the treatment, safety, recovery and quality of life of patients. Physical or mental collapse due to overwork or stress (burnout) in anaesthesiologists may, therefore, be expected to negatively affect patients, departments, healthcare facilities and families. To evaluate the prevalence of burnout among anaesthesiologists in Belgrade public teaching hospitals. A cross-sectional survey. Anaesthesiologists in 10 Belgrade teaching hospitals. Burnout was assessed using Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey. The response rate was 76.2% (205/272) with the majority of respondents women (70.7%). The prevalence of total burnout among anaesthesiologists in Belgrade teaching hospitals was 6.34%. Measured level of burnout as assessed by high emotional exhaustion, high depersonalisation and low personal accomplishment was 52.7, 12.2 and 28.8%, respectively. More than a quarter of the studied population responded in each category with sympto...

Adapting the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory Into Bahasa Indonesia for Measuring Burnout in Medical Residents

Jurnal Pendidikan Kedokteran Indonesia: The Indonesian Journal of Medical Education

Background: Burnout is common among medical residents, and a non-commercial tool for assessing burnout for medical residents is needed. This study aimed to adapt the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) in Bahasa Indonesia for medical residents and to analyze its validity and reliability.Case Discussion: The English version of OLBI was forward and backward translated to and from Bahasa Indonesia by English-language translation experts, and was appropriately modified by the authors. The respondents of the questionnaire were taken from pediatric residents in the first trial (48 subjects), and from internal medicine, pediatric, dermatology, surgery, and neurology residents in the second trial (109 subjects). The item-test correlation to measured construct validity was good for both trials. A confirmatory factor analysis was then undertaken to evaluate the goodness of fit (GOF), the root mean squared error of approximation (RMSEA), comparative fit index (CFI), Tucker-Lewis index (TLI), s...

Development and Evaluation of a Global Burnout Index Derived from the Use of the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory in Portuguese Physicians

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 2018

Introduction: The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory was developed to overcome what some authors have proposed as potential limitations of existing burnout measures. Specifically, the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory measures the main component of burnout (i.e. exhaustion) in three domains: personal-, work- and patient-related. Additionally, some authors have argued the necessity to have available a global burnout index.Material and Methods: This study followed a cross-sectional design in a sample of Portuguese physicians (n = 1348). A confirmatory factor analyses was conducted and the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory´s three-factor structure was tested. In addition, a model with a 2nd order factor was tested with the goal of achieving a one-factor structure that would allow a global burnout index.Results: The confirmatory factor analyses showed a good model fit for both the three-factor and one-factor model, having the latter a significant better fit. The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory showed good...

Does the Maslach Burnout Inventory correlate with cognitive performance in anesthesia practitioners? A pilot study

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2013

Background: Chronic stress is a common condition among health-care operators, anesthetists in particular. It is known to cause cognitive weakening and pathological outcomes, as the Burnout syndrome. Nevertheless, the impact of clinicians' health on their performance has received limited attention thus far. Our pilot study, aims at evaluating the influence of burnout on the cognitive performance in a population of anesthesia practitioners. Methods: In 18 practitioners we assessed attention by means of reaction times (RTs), pre-and post-shift, with a five-subtest computerized neuropsychological battery. RTs were controlled for the situational anxiety with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory X1. The burnout level was evaluated with the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The three MBI sub-scores (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and professional achievement) were combined to obtain two groups according to the burnout score (high and low). Results: Anesthetists showed a significantly worse performance in the fifth test post-shift (P=0.041) than pre-shift. The high-score burnout group reacted slower than the low-score burnout group in three of the five cognitive subtests, without reaching a statistical significance. Nevertheless, our effect size, which is independent from the sample size, is very large (d=1.165). Conclusion: We found that in a population of health-care operators, burnout may affect the cognitive and potentially, the working performance. Qualitative and quantitative measurements should be integrated to ensure a better management of burnout and its consequences in workplaces.
