Abstract

The present study aims to adapt and analyze the psychometric properties (evidence of factor validity and internal consistency) of the COVID-19 Burnout Scale in a sample of Brazilian health professionals. Two studies were carried out (N total = 427). In Study 1 [202 health professionals (age over 18), mainly women (82%) and psychologists (31.2%)], an exploratory factor analysis support the one-factor solution and the suitability of the ten items. Moreover, was also presented in Study 2 [225 health professionals (over 18 years old), the majority of women (79.6%) and psychologists (24.8%)] results of confirmatory factor analysis and item parameters (Item Response Theory) that corroborate the unifactorial structure and convergent validity with the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale. The results indicate that this measure may be suitable for use in research and in the burnout evaluation scenario.
