The “Areas of Work-life Scale” (AWS) is a practical instrument to measure employees´ perceptions of their work environments. AIMS: Validate a Spanish translation of the AWS, and it relationship with Masclach Burnout Inventory dimensions. Methods: The study was conducted in three medium-sized hospitals and seven rural and urban Primary Care centres (N = 871) in Spain. The “Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey” (MBI-GS) and AWS were applied. We developed a complete psychometric analysis of its reliability, and validity. Results: Data on the reliability supported a good internal consistency (Cronbach a between .71, and .85). Construct validity was confirmed by a six factor model of the AWS as a good measure of work environments (¿2 (352) = 806.21, p < 0.001; ¿2/df = 2.29; CFI = 0.935, RMSEA = 0.039); concurrent validity was analysed for its relationship with other measures (opposing dimensions to burnout, and MBI), and each correlation between dimensions and subdimensions were statistically significant; as well, predictive validity, by a series of Multiple Regression Analysis examined the resulting patterns of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) confirms the relationship between the work-life areas and burnout dimensions. Conclusions: Leiter and Maslach’s AWS has been an important instrument in exploring several work-life factors that contribute to burnout. This scale can now be used to assess the quality of work-life in order to design and assess the need for intervention programs in Spanish-speaking countries. 000129307 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000129307 590__ $$a2.099$$b2013 000129307 591__ $$aHEALTH POLICY & SERVICES$$b19 / 70 = 0.271$$c2013$$dQ2$$eT1 000129307 591__ $$aHEALTH CARE SCIENCES & SERVICES$$b32 / 86 = 0.372$$c2013$$dQ2$$eT2 000129307 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000129307 700__ $$aLeiter, M.
