Subjective Well-Being of Teachers in K-12 Christian Schools
Rettig, Julianne
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, Southeastern University
This non-experimental, quantitative study aimed to examine the factors that influence the self-perceived well-being of teachers in K-12 Christian schools. The sample for this study was convenient, non-probable, and purposive and comprised of 81 teachers from one Christian school system in Florida. The measurement tool used in this study is based on Seligman's (2011) work on well-being. The Workplace PERMAH Profiler is a valid and reliable ([alpha] = 0.94) instrument that measures flourishing in terms of six domains: positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, accomplishment, and health. The internal reliability of study participant responses to survey items associated with the construct of well-being was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha ([alpha]). The internal reliability levels achieved in the study across all 23 survey items associated with the study's construct of well-being was very good at [alpha] = 0.87. A one-sample t-test was conducted to assess the statistical significance of study participant response to survey items associated with the six dimensions of the study's overarching construct of well-being. The response effects for all six dimensions of the construct of well-being were statistically significant. In five of the six dimensions of the construct of well-being, the response effects were considered huge (d [greater than or equal to] 2.0). The response effect for the dimension of health was considered medium (d = 0.47). The single greatest response effect within the six dimensions of the construct of well-being was reflected in the dimension of meaning (d = 3.94), closely followed by the dimension of accomplishment (d = 3.44).
