Burnout Measure: Short Version
If you would like to determine your burnout level, then take the short version
of Malach-Pines (2005) Burnout Measure.
Please use the following scale to answer the question: When you think about your
work overall, how often do you feel the following?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
never almost
never
rarely sometimes often very
often
always
Tired ________
Disappointed with people ________
Hopeless ________
Trapped ________
Helpless ________
Depressed ________
Physically weak/Sickly ________
Worthless/Like a failure ________
Difficulties sleeping ________
“I've had it” ________
In order to calculate your burnout score add your responses to
the 10 items and divide by 10 .
Now that you have taken the measure and determined your overall burnout score,
what does it mean? According to Malach-Pines (2005), if you scored between 0 and
2.4 you have little or no burnout. A score of 2.5 to 3.4 indicates that you are at risk
for burnout. Unfortunately, a score of 3.5 or higher means that you are burned out
with high burnout being in the 4.5 to 5.4 range and very high burnout in the 5.5 or
higher range. If you are burned out you may want to use some of the strategies
discussed in this chapter for dealing with burnout or consult a counselor for more
assistance.
