GIL-MONTE, PEDRO R.  y  ZUNIGA-CABALLERO, LESLIE CLARET. Factorial Validity of the "Spanish Burnout Inventory" (SBI) in a Sample of Mexican Doctors . Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2010, vol.9, n.1, pp.169-178. ISSN 1657-9267.

The purpose of this study was to assess the factorial validity of the "Spanish Burnout Inventory" (SBI). A model of four factors was hypothesized. The sample consisted of 110 doctors working in Mexican Institute of Social Security. The instrument is made up of 20 ítems, and 4 subscales: Enthusiasm toward the job (5 ítems), Psychological Exhaustion (4 ítems), Indolence (6 ítems), and Guilt (5 ítems). The measures of goodness of fit indicated that the hypothesized model showed a satisfactory fit for the data: GFI = .83, RMSEA = .061, NNFI = .90, CFI = .92, PNFI = .65. As a whole, the results show that the SBI offers factorial validity and internal consistency to evaluate burnout for Mexican doctors.
