Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Maslach Burnout Inventory - Human Services SurveyBaseline, 1-month follow-up, 3-month follow-up, 6-month follow-up22-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 0=never, 1=a few times a year or less, 2=once a month or less, 3=a few times a month, 4=once a week, 5=a few times a week, 6=every day. MBI includes 3 dimensions of Burnout: Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, and Personal Accomplishment. There are 9 items included in Emotional Exhaustion and scores can range from 0-54. There are 5 items included in Depersonalization and scores can range from 0-30. There are 8 items included in Personal Accomplishment and scores can range from 0-48. Higher scores on Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization and lower scores on Personal Accomplishment are indicative of Burnout

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Professional Quality of Life ScaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up30-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 1=never, 2=rarely, 3=sometimes, 4=often, 5=very often. PROQOL includes 3 dimensions: Compassion Satisfaction, Burnout, and Secondary Traumatic Stress. Each subscale includes 10 items and scores can range from 10-50. For Burnout and Secondary Traumatic Stress, lower scores are better. Sums of 10-22 = low level, 23-41 = average level, and 42-50=high level of Burnout and Secondary Traumatic Stress. For Compassion Satisfaction, higher scores are better. Sum of 10-22=low level, 23-41=average level, and 42-50=high level of Compassion Satisfaction.
Brief Resilience ScaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up6-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 1=strongly agree, 2=disagree, 3=neutral, 4=agree, 5=strongly agree. Sum of items can range from 6-30, which is then divided by 6 to get an average score. Higher score is better, with 1-2.99 = low resilience, 3-4.3 = normal resilience, and 4.31-5.0 = high resilience.
Self-Reflection and Insight ScaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up20-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 1=strongly disagree, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6=strongly agree. Six items are included in Self-Reflection and scores can range from 6-42, with higher scores indicating a greater self-reflection. Six items are included in Insight, and scores can also range from 6-42 with higher scores indicating more Insight.
Self-Compassion Scale Short FormBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up12-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 1=almost never, 2, 3, 4, 5=almost always. Scores are added and then averaged. While the average score is to be used comparatively, score 1.0-2.49 is considered low, 2.5-3.5 is considered moderate, and 3.51-5.0 is considered high.
General Self-Efficacy ScaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up10-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 1=not at all true, 2=barely true, 3=moderately true, 4=exactly true. Item scores are added together and then averaged with higher scores indicating more self-efficacy.
Perceived Stress ScaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up10-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 0=never, 1=almost never, 2=sometimes, 3=fairly often, 4=very often. The total score ranges from 0 to 40 with higher scores indicating greater perceived stress.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder - 2 item scaleBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up2-item questionnaire with the following response categories: 0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, 3=nearly every day. Total score range is 0 to 6 and a score of 3 or higher suggests possible anxiety.
Patient Health Questionnaire - 2 itemBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up2-item scale with the following response categories: 0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, 3=nearly every day. Total score range is from 0 to 6, and a score of 3 or more indicates possible depressed mood.
Post-Traumatic Growth InventoryBaseline, 1- and 3-and 6-month follow-up21-item scale scored using six-point responses: zero ("I did not experience this change as a result of my crisis") to five ("I experienced this change to a very great degree as a result of my crisis"). Total score range is 0 to 105, which higher scores indicating more post traumatic growth.
