教学中的压力来源多种多样,有证据表明这种压力与身心健康问题有关。然而,关于个人因素、工作压力、工作满意度和症状之间的联系在这一职业中还没有得到详细的检查,本研究检验了一个将这些变量相互关联的模型。一项对德克萨斯州东南部245名以女性为主的小学教师的调查表明,人口因素和教学背景不会影响压力、满意度或健康担忧。然而,虽然工作压力是工作满意度的最强预测者,但这种压力与健康问题没有直接关系,这是一个意想不到的发现。教师的书面答复指出了压力的其他来源,其中许多是基于环境或政策的性质。这些发现对未来的研究和教师压力管理干预的意义进行了讨论。
Stress in teaching derives from a variety of sources, and evidence exists linking such stress to physical and mental health concerns. Detailed examination of the linkages among personal factors, job stress, job satisfaction and symptomatology have not been done in this occupation, however, and the present study examines a model interrelating these variables. A survey of 245 predominantly female elementary school teachers in southeast Texas suggested that demographic factors and teaching background do not influence stress, satisfaction or health concerns. However, while job stress was the strongest predictor of job satisfaction, this stress had no direct relationship with health problems, an unexpected finding. Write-in responses by teacher indicated additional sources of stress, many of which were environmental or policy-based in nature. The implications of these findings for future research and stress management interventions for teachers are discussed.
