Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) Test

burnout

This self-report measure is used to assess occupational burnout symptoms in working adults. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) evaluates commonly assessed dimensions of burnout, including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization (cynicism), and reduced personal accomplishment.

The instrument includes 22 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Respondents rate the frequency of job-related experiences, yielding subscale scores that can support screening, baseline characterization, and monitoring over time when interpreted within appropriate normative and clinical context.

The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) is available in multiple forms tailored to different work settings; selection of the appropriate version and scoring approach should align with the population and intended use.
