The Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) represents a new measure of burnout that addresses the shortcomings of previous instruments. This study investigates the psychometric properties of the Romanian short version of the BAT. The sample consisted of 648 employees that completed the short version of the BAT. Of this sample, 117 employees also completed measures for other well-being indicators, job demands, job resources, personality, and organizational outcomes. According to our findings, there are strong correlations between the four core (exhaustion, emotional impairment, cognitive impairment, and mental distance) and two secondary (psychological distress and psychosomatic complaints) burnout symptoms. The scales presented appropriate reliability indicators. Results also support the convergent, discriminant, and construct validities. The Item Response Theory analysis showed a good coverage of the latent trait and the confirmatory factor analyses revealed appropriate fit indices. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
职业倦怠评估工具（BAT）是一种新的职业倦怠测量方法，它弥补了以往工具的不足。本研究调查了罗马尼亚语简化版BAT的心理测量特性。样本包括648名完成了BAT简化版的员工。在这个样本中，117名员工还完成了其他幸福感指标、工作需求、工作资源、个性和组织成果的测量。根据我们的研究结果，职业倦怠的四个核心症状（疲惫、情绪损伤、认知损伤和心理距离）与两个次要症状（心理困扰和身心不适）之间存在很强的相关性。这些量表呈现出适当的信度指标。结果还支持聚合效度、区分效度和结构效度。项目反应理论分析表明潜在特质得到了良好的覆盖，验证性因素分析显示拟合指数合适。本文讨论了理论和实践意义。
