An Analysis of the Occupational Stress of Teachers of the Behaviorally Disordered: Sources, Effects, and Strategies for Coping.

Pullis, Michael

Behavioral Disorders, v17 n3 p191-201 May 1992

A survey of 244 teachers of the behaviorally disordered indicated that school/setting factors, career issues, and workload variables were perceived as more stressful than direct contact with students. Exhaustion, frustration, and negative carryover to life outside the classroom were frequent effects of stress. Strategies for dealing with stress are examined. (Author/JDD)
