Fig. 1
Mean SPEED (Scan of Postgraduate Educational Environment Domains) scores of residents with (n = 185) and without (n = 1,046) burnout. Horizontal bars represent mean values and T‑bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. The difference in SPEED score (0.71, 95% confidence interval for difference; 0.56–0.86) between both groups is significant (p < 0.001)
