abstract = {Abstract: Professionals with burnout have negative physical and psychological e ects, with adverse
consequences in their workplace. Burnout mainly a ects assisting professions; amongst them,
police work is one of the professions at risk of su ering from this syndrome. The aim of this research
is to study the adequacy of the Maslach Burnout Inventory and Granada Burnout Questionnaire
instruments to measure burnout in police o cers through the study of the reliability and validity
(concurrent and predictive) of these instruments. A cross-sectional study was carried out. The sample
was composed of 1884 police o cers, mostly men (85.4%), with an average age of 35.04 (SD = 8.30).
The Maslach Burnout Inventory and Granada Burnout Questionnaire were used to measure
burnout. The results obtained in this study support the adequacy of both instruments for measuring
burnout. The correlation coe cients between the dimensions are significant, with a medium-high
magnitude. Participants with burnout had significantly higher scores in emotional exhaustion and
depersonalization and lower scores in personal accomplishment in both instruments. The area under
the curve estimated for the Granada Burnout Questionnaire provided evidence of the predictive
validity of the instrument. The police profession needs validated and sensitive tools to identify police
changes in the dimensions of burnout. The Granada Burnout Questionnaire instrument correctly
classifies burnout in police professionals.},
