Resilience: A Predictor Of Teachers’ Engagement At Secondary Level In Punjab

Abstract

The current study examined the relationship between resilience and teachers’ engagement. The present study used a design that was correlational. The population consisted of 61762 Punjab secondary school teachers (SSTs). 505 secondary school teachers from Punjab were chosen for the academic year 2021-2022 using a multi-stage random sampling procedure. Data was collected using two questionnaires. Both surveys were adapted. The first questionnaire had ten items about resilience. The second questionnaire had 17 questions about teachers’ engagement. Pearson r, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and linear regression were employed to analyze the data. The findings revealed a positive and statistically significant link between resilience and teacher engagement. According to the study, resilience is positively related to instructors’ engagement. Furthermore, resilience has an impact on instructors’ engagement. Furthermore, there are substantial gender differences in resilience and teacher engagement. As a result, it is recommended that teachers may build a sense of resilience in their engagement with the teaching profession.
