在教育環境急遽變遷與少子女化現象的衝擊下,大學教師的身份與工作被重新定位,導致他們承受的工作壓力越來越大,長期的工作壓力容易使教師對教育工作產生職業倦怠並降低工作品質。教師的身心健康狀態與教育的品質息息相關,瞭解工作壓力來源與因應策略有助於改善教師的身心健康並提高教育品質。本研究以問卷調查的方式對南部某私立大學150位教師進行調查,結果顯示:(1)教師認為花很多時間在學校的工作,他們覺得工作沒有保障並感受到許多的心理壓力。(2)教師會使用問題解決策略有計畫地採取行動解決問題,他們也會從正向的情緒層面來因應工作壓力。(3)工作壓力感受方面,女性、年輕、資淺、助理教授、生物醫學學院、兼任行政職或週工時較長的教師感受到相對較大的工作壓力。(4)壓力因應策略方面,女性教師較會採取多元的因應策略,年輕與資淺的教師比較容易使用效果不良的策略。(5)教師工作疲勞度愈高,愈容易採取逃避的因應方式。教師工作掌控度愈高,解決問題的態度也愈積極。(6)與常模比較,教師比一般工作者投入更多時間和心力在工作上。
