Description
Summary:The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory for college students (CBI-S) was adapted to the Portuguese language and its reliability and validity studied in a sample of both Brazilian (n=958) and Portuguese (n=556) college students. The confirmatory factor analysis of the CBI-S showed good fit but two items were removed since they lack individual reliability (&#955;<.50). The new structure showed a good fit on 2/3 of the total sample and was invariant in the other 1/3 of the sample. The CBI-S factor weights were not invariant in the Brazilian and Portuguese samples. Internal consistency as well as convergent, discriminant and concurrent validity were good. The Portuguese CBI-S showed adequate reliability and validity but did not show cross-cultural validity.<br>Realizou-se adaptação cultural do Inventário de Burnout de Copenhagen para estudantes (CBI-S) em português e estimou-se sua confiabilidade e validade. O CBI-S foi preenchido por 958 estudantes universitários brasileiros e 556 portugueses. O modelo fatorial original apresentou bom ajustamento entretanto, foram removidos dois itens com confiabilidade individual baixa (&#955;<0,5). A nova estrutura apresentou bom ajustamento a 2/3 da amostra total sendo invariante no 1/3 restante da amostra original. Verficou-se adequada consistência interna e validade convergente, discriminante e concorrente. Os pesos fatoriais do CBI-S não foram invariantes nas amostras de Brasil e Portugal. O CBI-S apresentou adequada confiabilidade e validade entretanto, verificou-se ausência de estabilidade transcultural.
