Notes. Presented statistics in column “Cronbach’s α” are Cronbach’s alphas that measure the internal consistency of the respective (sub)scales: 12-item version of the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT-12) and the Workplace Stressors Assessment Questionnaire (WSAQ). In the columns “Part-time” and “Full-time”, presented statistics are means (M) with their standard deviations (SD) in between parentheses. Presented statistics in column rpb are point biserial correlation coefficients for working part-time (0 = no, 1 = yes). The star (*) indicates an effect size of rpb ≥ 0.05 [24].
