摘要:This research paper had the main objective of knowing if the burnout profile is different according to gender, age and marital status of micro business owners of the town of Uman, Yucatan. The selected sample was of 120 owners of family owned micro businesses. The theoretic basis of stress was taken from the studies of Freudenberg (1974), Maslach (1978) and Meier (1994) in order to define the Burnout construct. The instrument used to determine the level of Burnout Syndrome was the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). A descriptive investigation was made using a Multivariate Generalized Linear Model for each fixed factor of gender, age and marital status. The dependent variables that were used were emotional exhaustion, personal achievement and stress. The results show that women and people older than 60 years of age, experience higher levels of stress, people between the ages of 18 and 31 are more likely to get high scores in personal achievement and the widowed, marital status affects their personal achievement rate and it seems to be a risk factor for emotional exhaustion and stress.
