Maslach Burnout Inventory Scale change from baseline and after the intervention.Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), developed by Maslach and Jackson (1981), is designed to assess burnout across three dimensions: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. The instrument consists of 22 items rated on a five-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (always). The Turkish adaptation was conducted by Ergin (1992), who modified the original seven-point scale into a five-point format to enhance cultural relevance and interpretability. The subscales include nine items for emotional exhaustion (1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 13, 14, 16, 20), five items for depersonalization (5, 10, 11, 15, 22), and eight items for personal accomplishment (4, 7, 9, 12, 17, 18, 19, 21). Higher scores on the emotional exhaustion and depersonalization subscales, combined with lower scores on the personal accomplishment subscale, indicate greater levels of burnout. T
