Effect of Job stress perceived by childcare teacher on anger control

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the level of job stress perceived by childcare teachers and to examine the effect of stress on anger control. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on 431 childcare teachers working at daycare centers in Gyeongsangbuk-do, and the results of the study are as follows. First, as a result of analyzing whether there is a difference in the perceived anger control by childcare teachers according to the demographic variables of childcare teachers regarding anger control, significant differences were found in age, career, academic background, and job stress. There was no significant difference in the number of people in charge and working hours. Second, as a result of a study on whether job stress perceived by childcare teachers had a significant effect on anger control after controlling for demographic factors, the group with less than 10 years of experience as a childcare teacher showed higher anger control ability than the group with more than 10 years of experience. However, the higher the job stress of childcare teachers, the lower the ability to control anger. Third, as a result of analyzing the effects of six sub-factors of job stress on anger control, parental relationship stress and peer relationship stress had an effect on anger control, and among them, parental relationship stress had the most negative effect on anger control.
