Analysis of the level of stress in teachers

Abstract

This research aims to know the stress level of teachers of one of the Santa Catarina Technological University majors and, if it is high, take the appropriate measures to try to reduce it to a safer proportion for teachers, and thus prevent teachers from getting sick or incapacitated very often. It is known to all that if the teacher does not fulfill his obligations, the one directly affected is the student, who will have a poor academic performance. To measure the level of stress, a questionnaire consisting of 23 questions will be applied to the teachers of the cited school, the options that will have to answer those questions are 4: nothing at all, a little, moderately and strongly, with values of 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively; The answers selected by the teachers will be added and compared with a low, medium and high scale. Subsequently, a relationship of the level of stress against teacher performance will be established through a statistical treatment, where the correlation of these variables will be established by the method of the linear correlation coefficient r of Pearson. Likewise, the equation of the regression line by least squares will also be established with its corresponding graph for analysis.
