Abstract: | 67 New York City teachers participated in a study in which five teacher coping scales were developed: advice seeking, positive comparisons, selective ignoring discipline and direct action. The relation between coping measures and psychological distress and job-related morale was also investigated. The findings suggest that teachers who use identifiable occupational coping behaviours are less likely to experience psychological symptoms and low morale. |
