Quick Overview

The Autistic Burnout Screener is designed to help detect early signs of burnout in autistic individuals through a structured self-report format. It uses a 0–3 frequency rating scale to evaluate symptoms across three key sections: Sensory Fatigue, Emotional Exhaustion, and Reduced Functioning. Scoring provides clear guidance for next steps: scores between 0–9 indicate a low likelihood of burnout but warrant continued monitoring; scores from 10–18 suggest early warning signs and the need to adjust workload or reduce sensory exposure; and scores of 19–27 signal a significant risk of burnout, calling for prioritized rest and targeted support.
