51.7% of medical students and residents experience moderate to high burnout
Why This Assessment Matters
The OLBI-S measures both exhaustion (physical/cognitive depletion) and disengagement (cynicism toward work)—two distinct dimensions that other burnout tools miss. Developed specifically to overcome limitations of the Maslach Burnout Inventory, it uses balanced question wording to reduce response bias.
✨ Key Benefits
- Free & accessible — No licensing fees, validated across 15+ countries
- Dual-dimension assessment — Captures both emotional exhaustion AND mental distancing
- Predictive power — Identifies burnout before it impacts patient care and clinical decision-making
- Research-validated — Reliability (α = 0.70-0.87) proven in physicians, medical students, nurses, and residents
- Takes 5 minutes — Quick screening fits into your busy schedule
⚠️ Over 60% of paramedics show moderate-to-high exhaustion. Healthcare workers experiencing burnout have 31-39% worse treatment outcomes for their patients. Don't let burnout silently erode your well-being and professional effectiveness—get your baseline now.
