“…Rode (2004) stated that administrative support, student behavior, school environment, relationship with parents and autonomy affect job satisfaction and that individuals who are satisfied with their jobs tend to be satisfied with their lives. Similar to the result of the current study, there are studies demonstrating that life satisfaction is related to job stress (Bano & Malik, 2014;Barke, 2003;Kumar-Dey and et al, 2013).…”

“…In this process, the individual is expected to evaluate his/her own life rationally and his/her life satisfaction is affected by many factors.

The purpose of the current study is to determine the extent to which occupational resilience belief, life satisfaction and superior support predict job stress in teachers. The relational survey model was employed in the present study to investigate the relationships between occupational resilience belief, life satisfaction, superior support and job stress. The study group of the current research is comprised of a total of 254 teachers. In the current study, the job stress scale, the life satisfaction scale, the occupational resilience belief scale and the perceived superior support scale were used to collect data. In order to determine the extent to which occupational resilience belief, life satisfaction, superior support, gender and age predict job stress in teachers, multiple regression analysis was conducted. The findings have revealed that while life satisfaction, occupational resilience belief and age negatively and significantly predict job stress in teachers, superior support and gender do not significantly predict job stress in teachers. In other words, with teachers' increasing life satisfaction, occupational resilience belief and age, their job stress decreases.

“…Regarding mental status, an impressive volume of research focused on public school teachers. Bano and Malik (2014) indicated that teachers’ life satisfaction would be low when facing tremendous workplace stress in public or private educational institutions.

Previous studies of the relationship between hope and life satisfaction left the underlying mechanism of how hope predicts life satisfaction unexplored to scholars. This study thus investigates the two potential mediators in the relationship between hope and life satisfaction among a sample of Chinese shadow education institution (SEI) tutors who may be under immense professional development pressure from a cross-sectional approach. The main body of the study consists of an online survey in which 221 SEI tutors reported their hope, positive coping, perceived social support, and life satisfaction. The survey results were analyzed using mediation and moderation analysis via SPSS 23.0. The results indicated that positive coping improved the relationship between hope and life satisfaction, supporting the hypothesis regarding the serial mediating effect of positive coping and perceived social support. In other words, tutors with a high level of hope tend to adopt positive coping strategies, thus will receive more social support and improve life satisfaction. Our findings revealed the independent and accumulative mediating effects of positive coping and perceived social support on the relationship between hope and life satisfaction, and had implications for the psychological intervention of SEI tutors who are currently facing enormous industry pressure.
