Q1. To what extent, if any, do the following statements apply to you?

I feel burnt out from work.

On a four-point scale, that scores 21%, 35%, 28%, 17%.

So, they took everyone except those who said they didn’t feel burnt out at all, and got 83%.

I think asking for feelings of burnout exaggerates the issue of being burnt out by a huge factor.

For me, burnout means not only being tired of your job, but also inability to ‘burn’ outside work. I don’t even see how you can be that moderately, but over a quarter of respondents reported that.
