OR, odds ratio.

a

Unadjusted odds ratios are from logistic regression models with only burnout variables as predictors. All adjusted estimates (OR) were derived from logistic regression models controlling for age, sex, years in the hospital, hours worked in week, number of patients assigned during the last shift, job dissatisfaction, and subscales of Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index.

b

Odds ratios that are significant at the .01 level.
