Abstract

Recently, difficulties in job-searching among youth have become a more severe social problem in our society. Youths suffer from fear, anxiety and worry during their preparations for jobs, so that they become burned out. But, there is no appropriate measure for this kind of burn out. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate the Job Search Burnout Scale (JSBS), which measures university students’ burnout syndrome during the job searching process. Initially, 22 items were developed; after conducting interviews and a face validity test, the scale was reduced to 20 items. First of all, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and exploratory factor analysis were employed with the data from the three universities. Secondly, confirmatory factor analysis was employed to find the dimensions of the construct of the scale, and to test its construct validity. As a result, 17items were selected for the final version of the JSBS, and the five dimensions of employment burnout included: exhaustion (7 items), antipathy (2 items), inability (3 items), negative belief (3 items), dehumanization (2 items). This scale can be used in the educational and social fields in which any interventions for youths engaged in job-searching are utilized. The implications for the JSBS and its subscales, possible usage, and limitations of the study were discussed.
