Background: Burnout syndrome (BOS) is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. This study aims to create the Korean version burnout syndrome scale (KBOSS) that conforms to WHO’s defi...

This study aims to create the Korean version burnout syndrome scale (KBOSS) that conforms to WHO’s definition of BOS and present the cut-off points for screening. Methods: We developed the KBOSS based on WHO’s definition of BOS. An online survey was conducted through a specialized online research company. We recruited 444 workers for this research. The validity of the KBOSS was assessed using factor analysis and Pearson’s correlation. The KBOSS reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. The cut-off points for each of the three dimensions were derived using the upper quartile score. Results: The validity and reliability of the KBOSS were good. Regarding reliability, the scale’s overall Cronbach’s alpha was 0.813. Cronbach’s alpha of each three-dimension was as follows: exhaustion, 0.916; cynicism, 0.865; and professional inefficacy, 0.819. The cut-off points of BOS three dimensions are exhaustion ≧ 21; cynicism ≧ 18; and inefficacy ≧ 15. Conclusion: The developed questionnaire (KBOSS) can be a useful tool for screening of BOS.Hyung Doo KimShin-Goo ParkWon-Hyoung KimKyoung-Bok MinJin-Young MinSang-Hee HwangElsevierarticleBurnout syndromeExhaustionMental healthMental disorderBurnout, Professional / diagnosisBurnout, ProfessionalPublic aspects of medicineRA1-1270ENSafety and Health at Work, Vol 12, Iss 4, Pp 522-529 (2021)
