Maslach Burnout Inventory scores of EM residents before and after “The Happiness Practice.”

PGY-3+ also includes EM/IM combined residents in their third fourth and fifth years.

Pre = prior to implementation of “The Happiness Practice” sessions, Post = after completion of these six sessions.

The PGY-3 class only had four respondents post-intervention; so, these results should be interpreted with caution.

PGY, post-graduate year; EM, emergency medicine; MBI, Maslach Burnout Inventory; EE, emotional exhaustion; DP, depersonalization; PA, personal accomplishment.
