Comparing the Maslach Burnout Inventory to Other Well-Being Instruments in Emergency Medicine Residents.
The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) is considered the "gold standard" for measuring burnout, encompassing 3 scales: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. Other well-being instruments have shown utility in various settings, and correlations between MBI and these instruments could provide evidence of relationships among key variables to guide well-being efforts. ⋯ Our multicenter study of EM residents demonstrated that assessments using the MBI correlate with other well-being instruments.
