The 95% CI have been calculated using the binomial Wald assumption (Brown et al. 2001).

EE (Emotional Exhaustion): high (≥31), moderate (21–30), low (≤20).

PA (Personal Accomplishment): high (≤35), moderate (41–36), low (≥42).

DP (Depersonalization): high (≥11), moderate (6–10), low (≤5).

Age range for the burned out: 21–60 and for the non burned out: 21–63.

Work experience for the burned out: 1–40 and for the non burned out: 1–41.

*Scores within individual burnout domains were used both as continuous variables and categorized into low, intermediate and high scores using the cutoffs suggested by Maslach et al.[8].

**The sample size does not total to 1,482.

NS: Non significant.
