摘要

The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) has been the most widely used instrument to assess burnout syndrome. However, the scientific literature has pointed out theoretical limitations, as well as the inability to determine whether an individual has burnout or not. To overcome these criticisms, the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) was developed. This study has two objectives: (1) To adapt the BAT-23 to the Spanish cultural context. (2) To analyse the relationship between burnout and different work modalities (on-site, remote work and hybrid work). The adaptation process of the BAT involved a sequence of EFA and CFA with different subsamples, as well as reliability and validity tests. Factor invariance was calculated according to the on-site or remote work variable. 803 workers participated in the study. The best fit of the BAT was obtained with a 4-factor model and without item 6 (CFI = 0.986, TLI = 0.985, RMSEA = 0.075, SRMR = 0.067, GFI = 0.986, NFI = 0.981). A second-order latent factor was obtained and the scale was found to be invariant. In addition, the BAT showed good reliability and validity indices. No differences were found in burnout levels according to the different work modalities, although different predictor variables were found. The BAT represents an alternative to the theoretical, practical and psychometric limitations of the MBI, offering a more comprehensive and coherent measurement of burnout syndrome. Work modality is not a variable that necessarily implies a higher level of burnout. It is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the job.
