摘要

Primary and secondary school teachers’ emotional and psychological statuses are closely related to their subjective well-being. Emotion regulation, encompassing cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression, plays a pivotal role in influencing the subjective well-being of career educators. This study delves into the relationship between emotion regulation and subjective well-being while examining the mediating effects of social-emotional competency and resilience. A sample of 1,061 teachers from various schools in China, comprising 793 females (74.7%) and 268 males (25.3%), were surveyed to gain insights into the dynamics of teacher well-being among educators. Results indicate that cognitive reappraisal positively impacts well-being and this effect is significantly mediated by social-emotional competency and resilience. However, expressive suppression does not substantially impact well-being through these mediators. This research sheds light on the crucial role of emotion regulation in educational settings and points toward a need for targeted strategies to foster teachers’ emotional and psychological resilience. By identifying key factors influencing teacher well-being, the study may contribute to developing strategies that support the overall quality of teaching and promote healthier educational environments.
