Measuring job and academic burnout with the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI): Factorial invariance across samples and countries (2015, background): “…has resulted in “ignoring all other conceptual approaches to burnout” (Shirom & Melamed, 2006, p. 177) and in hindering the investigation of unsolved issues, such as the conceptualization of the underlying phenomenon and the development of an overarching theory of burnout (Shirom, 2005).”
Athlete burnout: an integrated model and future research directions (2011, background): “Occupational burnout researchers have also suggested that the effects of burnout can be of a chronic nature, due to relatively stable levels of burnout being measured during longitudinal studies (Schaufeli & Enzmann, 1998; Shirom, 2005).”
Positive and negative work–family interaction and burnout: A longitudinal study of reciprocal relations (2008, background): “…in a prior special issue of Work & Stress (volume 19, part 3, 2005), individual resources might also be depleted or strengthened by situations beyond the working environment (e.g., Bekker, Croon, & Bressers, 2005; Kristensen, Borritz, Villadsen, & Christensen, 2005; Shirom, 2005; Sonnentag, 2005).”
The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory: A new tool for the assessment of burnout (2005, unknown): “The MBI and various issues concerned with the concept and measurement of burnout are discussed further in commentaries by Schaufeli and Taris (2005), Shirom (2005) and Sonnentag (2005).”
Bricks without clay: On urban myths in occupational health psychology (2006, background): “For example, Shirom (2005) rightly argued that burnout is uncomfortably close to depressive symptomatology, while Kristensen, Borritz, Villadsen, and Christensen (2005) maintained that exhaustion is at the core of the syndrome and that the other dimensions are superfluous.”
Burnout: Moving beyond the status quo. (2017, methodology): “Although its development was neither clinically grounded nor theory driven, the MBI has been, by far, the most widely used measure of burnout (Schaufeli & Enzmann, 1998; Schaufeli, Leiter, & Maslach, 2009; Shirom, 2005).”
Is burnout a depressive disorder? A reexamination with special focus on atypical depression. (2014, background): “A syndrome, as commonly used in most areas of psychology, refers to a group of signs and symptoms that occur together and characterize a particular abnormality (Shirom, 2005).”
Work engagement and burnout: testing the robustness of the Job Demands-Resources model (2009, background): “Therefore, more work on the theoretical foundations of burnout is needed to further elucidate the construct (Shirom, 2005 ).”
Relationship between burnout and depressive symptoms: A study using the person-centred approach (2014, background): “…and depression has long been a focus of scientific interest in occupational health (Ahola et al., 2005; Ahola & Hakanen, 2007; Bakker et al., 2000; Iacovides, Fountoulakis, Kaprinis, & Kaprinis, 2003; Leiter & Durup, 1994; Schaufeli & Enzmann, 1998; Shirom, 2005; Toker & Biron, 2012; Warr, 1987).”
Is Burnout a Depressive Condition? A 14-Sample Meta-Analytic and Bifactor Analytic Study (2021, background): “The job-related character of burnout has often been invoked in justifying the burnout–depression distinction (Maslach & Leiter, 2016; Shirom, 2005).”
Clergy Burnout: A Comparison Study with Other Helping Professions (2017, background): “Comparing burnout in clergy to burnout in other helping professions Although the concept of burnout is based on clinical and field observation rather than a theory (Cox 2005; Foss 2002; Maslach et al. 1996; Shirom 2005), the theory of effort-reward imbalance may partially explain burnout.”
The conceptualization and measurement of burnout: Questions and directions (2005, background): “Some of the more general questions that surround the topic of burnout are raised by Shirom (2005) in the second commentary.”
