Abstract

The aim of the study was to verify the association between the prevalence of Burnout Syndrome and the level of physical activity of students at a public university in southern Brazil. The cross-sectional study with probabilistic and intentional sampling included 584 university students. To assess the level of physical activity, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) - long version was applied. Burnout syndrome was assessed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey - (MBISS) and a sociodemographic questionnaire was also used. For data analysis, association tests and crude and adjusted multinomial logistic regression analyzes were used to estimate the odds ratios (OR) . The results indicated that students inactive at work had higher chances of average professional effectiveness and students inactive at leisure had higher chances of high emotional exhaustion and average disbelief.
