Sumario: The purpose of this study was to assess the factorial validity of the “Spanish Burnout Inventory” (SBI). A model of four factors was hypothesized. The sample consisted of 110 doctors working in Mexican Institute of Social Security. The instrument is made up of 20 items, and 4 subscales: Enthusiasm toward the job (5 items), Psychological Exhaustion (4 items), Indolence (6 items), and Guilt (5 items). The measures of goodness of fit indicated that the hypothesized model showed a satisfactory fit for the data: GFI = 0.83, RMSEA = 0.061, NNFI = 0.90, CFI = 0.92, PNFI = 0.65. As a whole, the results show that the SBI offers factorial validity and internal consistency to evaluate burnout for Mexican doctors.
