Several authors have highlighted the importance of creating a useful tool to evaluate academic Burnout through the construction and validation of specific scales to evaluate academic Burnout. Based on the literature, the aim of this study is to evaluate in Italian university the psychometric properties of the SBI-U 9 scale for Academic Burnout in university students in Italy developed by Boada-Grau and colleagues. Study 1 (N=609) examined the factor structure of the scale (Male=45.6%, Female=54.4%; Mage= 21.9; SD=2.92). Study 2 (N=412) advanced the previous SBI-U 9 validation by testing its measurement equivalence across gender (Male=48.8%, Female= 51.2%) and different type of course of study (Technical-Mathematical-Scientific=33.5%, Medical- Scientific=32.5%, Scientific-Humanistic=34%) through Multigroup Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Results confirmed a one higher-order factor structure with three first-order factors, the scale was found to be invariant across gender and different type of course of study. The findings advanced the general claim of SBI-U 9 showed an important tool for detecting the academic Burnout in university students in the Italian context, this is confirmed by the good psychometric properties of the scale.
几位作者强调了通过构建和验证评估学术倦怠的特定量表来创建一个有用工具以评估学术倦怠的重要性。基于文献，本研究的目的是在意大利大学中评估由博阿达 - 格劳及其同事开发的针对意大利大学生学术倦怠的SBI - U 9量表的心理测量特性。研究1（N = 609）检验了该量表的因子结构（男性 = 45.6%，女性 = 54.4%；平均年龄 = 21.9岁；标准差 = 2.92）。研究2（N = 412）通过多组验证性因子分析测试其在性别（男性 = 48.8%，女性 = 51.2%）和不同学习课程类型（技术 - 数学 - 科学 = 33.5%，医学 - 科学 = 32.5%，科学 - 人文 = 34%）之间的测量等效性，推进了先前对SBI - U 9的验证。结果证实了一个具有三个一阶因子的高阶因子结构，该量表在性别和不同学习课程类型之间具有不变性。这些发现推进了SBI - U 9的总体主张，表明它是检测意大利背景下大学生学术倦怠的重要工具，该量表良好的心理测量特性证实了这一点。
