HEDERICH-MARTINEZ, Christian  e  CABALLERO-DOMINGUEZ, Carmen Cecilia. Validation of Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) in Colombian academic context. CES Psicol [online]. 2016, vol.9, n.1, pp.1-15. ISSN 2011-3080.

The assessment of the academic burnout syndrome has been traditionally conducted by the MBI- General Survey (MBI-GS) in an academic context, which is called as the MBI-Student Survey (MBI-SS). Due to the lack of appropriate normative data, in order to interpret the results most of researches take the normative data from the MBI-GS. This article examines the factorial validity of MBI-SS findings, the reliability of the considered scales and compares the obtained results after conducting a survey to 820 students enrolled in the academic health field at universities in the Caribbean coast of Colombia, with the outline based on the technical mark that presents the normative data. The results indicate an efficient adjustment of the instrument, but question the normative data employed in order to carry out the interpretation of the results. Specifically, the results show a sample with higher levels of exhaustion, lower levels of cynicism and similar levels of self-efficacy than the sample of Spanish workers. Some interpretations of the results are discussed.
