ABSTRACT
The growing number of publications on the subject of burnout syndrome
suggests this is the most widely researched psychological workrelated
outcome in the last decades. It is important to review the state
of art in this phenomenon and to examine the challenging dimension
that it has reached. The general objective of this paper was to carry
out a systematic review of the published literature in order to characterize
burnout research in Mexico.
Methods:
A manual search was carried out in 12 databases including Spanish
or Latin American journals. All the existent articles up to July 2012
were taken into account and five criteria were defined so as to assure
the comparability among the studies. Meta-analyses were estimated
with the averages of the burnout dimensions and the Cronbach alpha
coefficients reported.
Results:
Sixty-four studies were selected (n=13 801 employees); most of them
were from health professionals and more than half were collected in
Jalisco and Distrito Federal. The methodological analyses revealed
that more than 90% of the studies were observational/cross-sectional
designs, and most with data analyses that are vulnerable to the effect
of confounding variables. A remarkable finding was the huge heterogeneity
in the criteria used to determine the prevalence of burnout. The
meta-analyses in 14 selected studies showed average burnout symptoms
values of “once a month or less” within the frequency scale.
Discussion:
The general balance of this review shows that the research on burnout
in Mexico still has areas of opportunity. It is necessary to broaden
the range of occupations and regions to improve the methodological
designs and the information analyses, and to ensure the used scales
have good psychometric properties. Some recommendations for future
research are offered.
