This study explores burnout among nursing students in Bangalore, India, focusing on Exhaustion and Disengagement scores. A cross-sectional design was applied using the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory modified for nursing students, collecting data using a survey that was conducted between October and December 2023. The sample consisted of 237 female nursing students from the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at Bangalore College of Nursing, South India. The study integrated the t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) procedure for data simplification into three t-SNE components, used in a hierarchical clustering analysis, which identified distinct student profiles: "High-Intensity Study Group" and "Altruistic Aspirants". While burnout scores were generally high, students with high study hours ("High-Intensity Study Group") reported greater Exhaustion, with a mean score of 26.78 (SD = 5.26), compared to those in the "Altruistic Aspirants" group, who reported a mean score of 25.00 (SD = 4.48), demonstrating significant differences (-value = 0.005). Conversely, those motivated by altruism ("Altruistic Aspirants") showed higher Disengagement, with a mean score of 19.78 (SD = 5.08), in contrast to "High-Intensity Study Group", which reported a lower mean of 17.84 (SD = 4.74) (-value = 0.002). This segmentation suggests that burnout manifests differently depending on the students' academic load and intrinsic motivations. This study underscores the need for targeted interventions that address specific factors characterizing the clusters and provide information for designing future research and interventions.

本研究探讨了印度班加罗尔护理专业学生的职业倦怠情况,重点关注疲惫和疏离得分。采用了横断面设计,使用针对护理专业学生修改后的奥尔登堡倦怠量表,通过2023年10月至12月期间进行的一项调查收集数据。样本包括来自印度南部班加罗尔护理学院护理学理学学士项目的237名女性护理专业学生。该研究将用于数据简化的t分布随机邻域嵌入(t-SNE)程序整合为三个t-SNE组件,用于层次聚类分析,确定了不同的学生类别:“高强度学习组”和“利他主义者”。虽然倦怠得分普遍较高,但学习时间长的学生(“高强度学习组”)报告的疲惫程度更高,平均得分为26.78(标准差=5.26),相比之下,“利他主义者”组的平均得分为25.00(标准差=4.48),显示出显著差异(p值=0.005)。相反,受利他主义激励的学生(“利他主义者”)表现出更高的疏离感,平均得分为19.78(标准差=5.08),而“高强度学习组”报告的平均值较低,为17.84(标准差=4.74)(p值=0.002)。这种分类表明,倦怠的表现因学生的学业负担和内在动机而异。本研究强调需要采取针对性干预措施,解决各集群的特定因素,并为设计未来的研究和干预措施提供信息。本研究未注册。
