An Analysis of the Relationship between Teachers’ Subjective Wellbeing and Their Occupational Resilience
Abstract
This research aims to determine teachers’ perception levels regarding
subjective well-being and their occupational resilience, and reveal the
relationship between these two variables. Having a relational survey design,
the research was carried out with teachers working at schools located within
the province of Şanlıurfa in Turkey. The sample held a total of 346 teachers
who work at different school types during the 2017-2018 academic year. Among
the participants, 163 were women and 183 were men. This research deployed
“Personal Information Form”, “Teacher Subjective Wellbeing Questionnaire
(TSWQ)” and “Occupational Resilience Beliefs Scale for Teacher Candidates” as
data collection tools. The research data were analyzed through the use of SPSS
21 statistical package program. Frequency, arithmetic mean and standard
deviation values were calculated in order to determine the teachers’ perception
levels regarding the subjective well-being and their occupational resilience.
Pearson-Moment Product Correlation method was used to identify whether there
was a significant relationship between the teachers' subjective well-being and
their occupational resilience perception levels. Besides, multiple regression
analysis was performed to determine as to whether the teachers’ subjective
well-being predicted their occupational resilience. Research findings revealed
that the teachers’ perception levels regarding subjective well-being and
occupational resilience beliefs were quite high. A medium, positive and
significant relationship was noted between the teachers’ subjective well-being
and their occupational resilience. The subjective well-being of the teachers
was found to significantly predict the occupational resilience and explains 71%
of the total variance.
