Figures reported in Table 1 are prior to missing data being imputed, whereas the reported figures in the text are after missing data was imputed, which is why they are slightly different. GHQ = general health questionnaire. OLBI = Oldenburg burnout inventory. OLBI: D = Oldenburg burnout inventory: disengagement. OLBI: E = Oldenburg burnout inventory: exhaustion. SD = standard deviation.
