Abstract

ABSTRACT Teacher resilience research complements studies on teacher stress and burnout and is gaining increasing attention due to its influence on teachers’ thriving in their profession. However, this construct has not yet been defined in operational terms in foreign language teaching, and its constituent components are not specified due to the absence of a robust and context-specific instrument. Therefore, the current study aimed at developing a tool for measuring the resilience of English language teachers (ELT). At the initial stage, qualitative semi-structured interviews with 14 Iranian EFL teachers complemented by a survey of the related literature on teacher resilience helped us develop an instrument with 44 Likert-type items. The English Language Teacher Resilience Instrument was then validated with a sample of 224 ELT teachers, resulting in the deletion of nine of its items. The final multidimensional 35-item instrument can measure ELT teachers’ resilience by focusing on the five factors of their internal motivations, social skills, emotional management, pedagogical skills, and contextual support.

英语教师心理弹性:工具开发与验证
教师弹性研究是对教师压力和职业倦怠研究的补充,因其对教师职业发展的影响而受到越来越多的关注。然而,这一结构在外语教学中还没有被定义为可操作的术语,由于缺乏一个强大的和特定于上下文的工具,它的组成部分也没有被指定。因此,本研究旨在开发一种测量英语教师心理弹性的工具。在初始阶段,对14名伊朗英语教师进行定性半结构化访谈,并对教师弹性相关文献进行调查,帮助我们开发了一个包含44个李克特类型项目的工具。然后用224名英语教师的样本对英语教师弹性量表进行了验证,结果删除了其中的9个项目。最后一个多维度的35项测量工具可以通过关注他们的内部动机、社会技能、情绪管理、教学技能和情境支持这五个因素来衡量英语教师的弹性。
