Brief Summary

This cross-sectional study included a cross-sectional survey of 100 surgeons who participated in the student research and practice club "Aesculap" while studying at Sechenov University over a 20-year period (from 2005 to 2025). Psychological burnout was assessed using the MBI questionnaire in 96 respondents. Engagement indicators (duration, activity) were combined into an integrated activity index using a principal component analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis and Spearman's rank correlation analysis were used.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Depersonalization subscale score of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI)

    The MBI Depersonalization subscale consists of 5 items, each rated from 0 ("never") to 6 ("every day"). Total score ranges from 0 to 30. Higher scores indicate greater depersonalization (cynical and detached attitude). Levels: low (0-5), moderate (6-10), high (11 and above).

    At enrollment (baseline, single assessment)

  • Emotional Exhaustion subscale score of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI)

    The MBI Emotional Exhaustion subscale consists of 9 items, each rated from 0 ("never") to 6 ("every day"). Total score ranges from 0 to 54. Higher scores indicate greater emotional exhaustion. Levels: low (0-15), moderate (16-24), high (25 and above).

    At enrollment (baseline, single assessment)

  • Reduced Personal Accomplishment subscale score of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI)

    The MBI Reduced Personal Accomplishment subscale consists of 8 items, each rated from 0 ("never") to 6 ("every day"). Total score ranges from 0 to 48. This scale is inverted: lower scores indicate greater reduction in personal accomplishment (i.e., less satisfaction with professional efficacy). Levels: low reduction (37 and above), moderate (31-36), high reduction (30 and below).
