We want to measure the relation between burnout and satisfaction among algerian workers. so we have found the scale of MBI of Maslash, but we did'nt find JDI. So please researchers if someone has a copy of this scale i will so grateful for him. thanks.
thank you very much Dr. Srinivas for this help. but I think that there is a short-form version of JDI, isn't it sir?
Hello,
This is one version,
Stanton, J. M., Sinar, E. F., Balzer, W. K., Julian, A. L., Thoresen, P., Aziz, S., ... & Smith, P. C. (2002). Development of a compact measure of job satisfaction: The abridged Job Descriptive Index. Educational and Psychological Measurement, 62(1), 173-191.
Perhaps Dr Srinivas knows of another.
Good luck.
Also see Gillespie et al. (2016) Normative measurement of job
satisfaction in the US. J Mgrl Psych, Vol. 31 No. 2, 2016
pp. 516-536. DOI 10.1108/JMP-07-2014-0223
The JDI is in a book by Smith, Kendall and Hulin (about 1964)--attached is a published chapter on burnout.
thank you researchers for this help, it's really benificial. thank u Pr. Locke, Pr. Gardner, Pr. Srinivas, Pr. Nicol.
I have elaborated a short-form version of JDI by using the article of Stanton et al. (2002) and Gregson (1990) in Arabic. the five dimensions of JDI are measured through 5 items each.
Maslachs Burnout Inventory has some inborn problems, described in this article that also present an alternative, the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory that you may consider to use.

I think you can submit a request through this website, and it is free for research purpose.

I think that if the Job Descriptive Index (JDI) is not translated and validated in the language of your country or you are trying for a tool easy to use, you could also use a single-item questionnaire in order to study the relationship between job burnout and job satisfaction; for example using this formulation: "A global rating of job satisfaction was obtained by asking.... : “how satisfying do you find your work?” on scales of 1-3 (“not at all satisfied” to “very satisfied”).
I used it in the following work: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27179821
