1. What is the AMA Burnout Calculator?

The AMA Burnout Calculator uses the Maslach Burnout Inventory to assess professional burnout levels. It evaluates three key dimensions: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment to provide a comprehensive burnout assessment score.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the burnout score formula:

\[ \text{Burnout Score} = \sum \text{Responses (Maslach Inventory)} \]

Where:

\( \text{Emotional Exhaustion} \) — Measures feelings of being emotionally overextended and exhausted by work (0-54 points)
\( \text{Depersonalization} \) — Measures unfeeling and impersonal response toward recipients of service (0-30 points)
\( \text{Personal Accomplishment} \) — Measures feelings of competence and successful achievement in work (0-48 points)

Interpretation: Higher scores indicate higher levels of burnout, with total scores categorized as Low (≤35), Moderate (36-60), or High (>60) burnout.
