2c.1) High vs. Low MBI-GS Scorers
Burnout has often been presented as a potential outcome for chronic workplace stressors (e.g. Pierce and
Molloy, 1996; Gorter, 2007, see Chapter 3, Section 1b.4.3). Table 15 shows the mean and standard deviation
scores on the MSIT for participants who were found to be experiencing both high and non-high burnout symptoms.
It should be noted that ‘Relationships’ and ‘Demands’ are scored in the opposite direction to the remaining five
outcomes. The table also shows the results of independent samples T-Tests to assess the differences in burnout
scoring between the 'high' and 'low' groups.

outcomes.
