ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the influence of work pressure and psychological capital on job burnout of college teachers.METHODS:
A total of 287 teachers from 7 universities in Nanjing City were selected as the research subjects using the convenient sampling method. The Maslach Burnout Inventory, Job Stress Scale for University Teachers and Psychological Capital Questionnaire were used to investigate their job burnout, job stress and psychological capital.RESULTS:
The total scores of job burnout and job stress were(42.9±12.5) and(48.5±12.4) respectively, and the occurrence of job burnout was 64.1%. The total scores of psychological capital was(106.7±14.7), and the scores of the four dimensions including self-efficacy, hope, resilience and optimism were(27.6±4.6),(26.7±4.8),(27.0±4.2) and(25.4±3.8) respectively. The total score of job stress was positively correlated with the total score of job burnout [correlation coefficient(r)=0.41, P<0.01]. The total score of psychological capital, self-efficacy, hope, resilience and optimism were negatively correlated with the total score of job burnout(r values were-0.42,-0.28,-0.36,-0.36 and-0.42, respectively, P<0.01). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that after adjusting the influence of confounding factors and excluding other confounding factors, the higher the job stress, the higher the job burnout level(P<0.01), the higher the psychological capital optimism dimension score, the lower the job burnout level(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:
The job stress and psychological capital of college teachers can independently affect their job burnout level, with a dose-effect relationship.
