Abstract
Objective: To report the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) in two samples of university professors from Bogotá and other regions of Colombia.
Method: In this cross sectional study, 1332 responses were collected via an online questionnaire distributed by e mail and social media between September and December 2022. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, principal component analysis, reliability estimates, and confirmatory factor analysis.
Results: In both samples, the Spanish OLBI exhibited good fit indices and Cronbach's alpha coefficients above .80. Adequate internal consistency was achieved after removing Items 5 and 13, which correspond to the Exhaustion and Disengagement factors, respectively.
Conclusion: The Spanish version of the OLBI is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing burnout in university professors within the Colombian context.
