Modelo predictivo para identificar el síndrome de burnout en estudiantes de medicina Predictive Model to Identify Burnout Syndrome in Medical Students
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
El síndrome de burnout es un problema en estudiantes de medicina debido a la alta carga académica y emocional. El uso de técnicas de aprendizaje automático puede facilitar la identificación temprana y apoyar procesos de intervención. El objetivo fue desarrollar un modelo para predecir el síndrome de burnout en estudiantes, por medio de técnicas de machine learning. Se incluyó información de 81 estudiantes de medicina de Bogotá (Colombia) y se generaron 140 valores simulados, que formaron parte del conjunto total analizado. Se realizó una preselección de características numéricas relevantes, que fueron procesadas con el método SelectKBest. Se utilizó Random Forest optimizado mediante búsqueda de hiperparámetros. La evaluación empleó métricas de precisión, recall y F1-score. El modelo desarrollado alcanzó una precisión del 77 % en la clasificación de los niveles del síndrome de burnout en los participantes. En conclusión, el modelo desarrollado demostró ser efectivo para predecir el síndrome de burnout.
