Abstract:
This study aimed to construct a causal model of relationships between
teachers' self-efficacy, job satisfaction, and resilience. It also aimed to
investigate the relationship between teachers' self-efficacy, job satisfaction,
and resilience. The study sample consisted of 403 teachers in Mafraq
Governorate. To achieve the objectives of the study, teacher self-efficacy
scale, job satisfaction scale, and resilience scale were used. The results of the
study showed that there is a positive and statistically significant correlation
between teacher self-efficacy and job satisfaction (r= 0.63), a positive and
statistically significant correlation between teacher self-efficacy and resilience
(r= 0.61), and a positive and statistically significant correlation between job
satisfaction and resilience )r= 0.46(. The results of the path analysis showed
that there are positive direct effects of teacher self-efficacy on job satisfaction
and resilience. There are positive direct effects of resilience on job satisfaction.
The results also showed positive indirect effects of teacher self-efficacy on job
satisfaction considering resilience as a mediating variable.
