Although a medical students sample was used, this version's items were adapted for workers; M, with modification indices applied; U, uncorrelated model; W, all positively phrased items of both burnout dimensions were specified to load on one factor and all negatively phrased items on a second factor; PN, two negatively worded scales (exhaustion items and disengagement items), and two positively worded scales (exhaustion items and disengagement items); D, disengagement subscale; E, exhaustion; N, only negatively worded items included, four each subscale; T, trait; M, method; MTMM, multitrait-multimethod.

The extracted results for the goodness-of-fit indices are presented with two or three decimal places depending of the original authors report. CFA, confirmatory factor analysis; EFA, exploratory factor analysis; MGCFA, multi-group confirmatory factor analysis; PCA, principal component analysis; GFI, goodness-of-fit index; RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; NNFI, non-normed fit index; TLI, Tucker Lewis index; CFI, comparative fit index; SRMR, standardized root mean square residual.
