摘要

在美国,心理健康挑战的影响与日俱增,对十二年级特殊教育教师和高等教育机构(IHE)的教职员工都造成了影响。教育工作者在同情疲劳和相关的职业倦怠中挣扎。由于教育工作者离开教育领域的原因多种多样,因此研究支持他们留在教育领域的因素至关重要。因此,我们分析了支持两个教学层次的教育工作者留任的因素。通过对调查对象(N = 200)的数据进行定性分析,我们研究了农村 P-12 特殊教育工作者和国际高等院校教师的适应力和耐力。归纳内容分析的结果表明,导致教育坚持不懈的因素首先是教育工作者找到了教学的意义。表现出职业耐力的教育工作者对自己的教学能力有强烈的自我效能感,从学生身上获得情感上的益处,并拥有指导他人和与他人合作的优质机会。相比之下,一些教育工作者表示,职业倦怠是他们离开教育领域的一个关键因素,报告的原因包括工资低、文书工作多、工作/生活不平衡、缺乏尊重,以及他们自己和学生的心理健康问题。基于这些发现,我们提出了研究和实践建议。

Compassion Fatigue, Resilience, and Endurance of Special Educators in Rural P-12 and Higher Education
The effects of mental health challenges in the United States are growing and affect both P-12 special education teachers and faculty at institutions of higher education (IHE). Educators struggle with compassion fatigue and associated burnout. With educators leaving the field for a plethora of reasons, it is vital to examine factors that support those who remain in education. Thus, we analyzed factors that support the retention of educators at both levels of instruction. In a qualitative analysis of data from survey respondents ( N = 200), we examined the resiliency and endurance of practicing rural P-12 special educators and faculty at IHEs. Results from inductive content analysis indicate that factors leading to persistence in education begin with educators finding meaning in their teaching. Educators who demonstrate career endurance have a strong sense of self-efficacy in their teaching abilities, receive emotional benefits from their students, and have quality opportunities to mentor and collaborate with others. By contrast, some educators indicate burnout is a key factor for leaving the field, and reported reasons include low pay, paperwork, poor work/life balance, lack of respect, and the mental health of themselves and their students. Based on these findings, we offer recommendations for research and practice.
