Quiet Quitting Scale: The Quiet Quitting scale (QQs) will be used to assess the phenomenon of silent resignation and to identify possible prognostic factors.
Study summary

In particular, we want to assess the presence and spread of a new work phenomenon called "quiet quitting," a phenomenon that has spread significantly in recent years in many work contexts.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Quiet Quitting scale — The Quiet Quitting Scale survey was first conducted in June 2025 and will be repeated in 2026.
The scale consists of nine items that investigate three main aspects of the phenomenon: detachment, understood as emotional separation from work-related concerns and thoughts; lack of motivation, understood as reduced drive to actively engage in one's work; and lack of initiative, understood as a low propensity to go beyond the minimum requirements of supervisors, i.e., to engage in non-mandatory activities. Responses to each item are provided on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 to 5. The overall score on the scale is reported as the average of the items, and an average score above 2.06 identifies a 'quiet quitter', i.e. a person who experiences the phenomenon of silent abandonment.
