The dimensional structure of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI–SS) was investigated using data collected from three samples of Chinese students in two high schools, a university, and a nursing school, respectively (total N= 1,499; 36% males, 64% females; M age 19.0 yr., SD = 1.3). Single group Confirmatory Factor Analyses corroborated the hypothesized three-factor model for the composite sample as well as for the three independent samples. Subsequent multigroup analyses revealed that the three-dimensional structure of the MBI–SS is partially invariant across three samples. It is concluded that the MBI–SS can be used to assess burnout in Chinese students.
