摘要

This study examined how job demands and resources influence teachers’ professional well-being across countries. Using data from 254,170 teachers in 47 OECD countries (TALIS 2018), we applied multigroup path analyses to test the main and interaction effects of workload stress, barriers to professional learning, and two job resources—collegial and participatory climates. Results showed that job resources enhanced well-being, whereas job demands reduced it. The collegial climate had the strongest positive link with job satisfaction and self-efficacy. Both resources buffered the negative effects of demands, supporting the Job Demands-Resources framework. These findings emphasise that supportive and participatory school environments are essential for sustaining teachers’ professional well-being globally.
