Abstract
Over the last decade, terrorist attacks on educational institutions have psychologically intercepted teachers in delivering their services effectively. Surprisingly, there is scant research available on a sensitive issue that helps to prevent teachers' career commitment amidst terrorism. Hence, the present study fills the gap by intercepting teachers' job anxiety and perceived job risk with the buffering effect of their religiousness. The findings revealed that teachers' job anxiety and perceived job risk are the by‐products of perceived threats of terrorism. Results also unveiled a significant negative relationship between teachers' perceived job risk and their career commitment. Further, the mediating role of teachers' perceived job risk amid terrorism was found significant. Finally, the buffering effect of teachers' religiousness to mitigate the adverse effects of job anxiety and perceived job risk on career commitment was found significant. The results elucidated that teachers' job anxiety and perceived job risk accounted for 13.2% of the variance in their career commitment.
