Description
Summary:The purpose of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Occupational Fatigue Exhaustion/Recovery (OFER). A cross-sectional study among 434 healthcare workers was undertaken. The factorial validity of the OFER, was compared using standard confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM). Internal consistency, convergent validity, and factorial invariance (across gender) were assessed. A three-factor first-order ESEM solution provided the best and most parsimonious representation of the data: χ2(63) = 212.81, p  0.80), however intershift recovery showed less internal consistency (ω
