Riassunto:The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship among work addiction, psychological capital and burnout, in a sample of woman mexican workers in the maquila industry in Guanajuato, identifying whether psychological capital, mediates the relationship between the other two variables. For this research, Spearman correlations between pairs of the studied variables were calculated. Subsequently, a mediation analysis was conducted, having work addiction as the independent variable, psychological capital as mediating variable, and burnout as dependent variable. A sample of 451 women workers in the maquila industry was integrated, in Guanajuato, México. The study findings show a strong and positive correlation between work addiction and burnout (r= +0.73), as well as strong a inverse correlation between work addiction and psychological capital and burnout (r= -0.67), on one hand, and between psychological capital and burnout (r= -0.62), on the other hand. Regarding the mediation analysis, the mediation of psychological capital between work addiction and burnout was partially confirmed.
