| Sumario: | Objective: To determine the level of burnout and explore its correlations with sociodemographic factors in nursing students in a semester at a university in Medellin. Methodology: It was used a quantitative approach with an observational-descriptive and cross-sectional design. The selection of the population was probabilistic and non-randomized, utilizing the Maslach Burnout Inventory - Student Survey (with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.86) to assess academic fatigue across three dimensions. Results: The average age of students was 23.25 years, with 70% being female. Of the participants, 40% were auxiliaries, and 30% were employed. Forty-five percent of students scored high levels of burnout, while 55% exhibited levels ranging from moderate to extreme. In terms of subscales, 100% showed high scores in cynicism, and 74% reported low scores in academic self-efficacy. Conclusion: This research revealed that all students experienced some degree of burnout, indicating a concerning prevalence in the studied sample. However, analyses did not unveil significant correlations between burnout levels and being an auxiliary nurse or engaging in employment-related activities. These findings suggest that more complex factors may influence the manifestation of academic burnout in nursing students, emphasizing the need for in-depth exploration in future research. |
