Abstract

ABSTRACT K-12 teachers throughout the United States have experienced unprecedented changes to their roles due to the COVID-19 pandemic, creating ambiguity and stress. This study took a mixed-methods approach to investigate K-12 teachers’ experiences coping with stress during the pandemic. The investigation involved two phases of data collection, beginning with formative focus groups that informed the development of an online survey in the second phase. Twelve teachers participated in the first phase (grades K-5), and 163 teachers (grades K-12) completed the online survey to determine how ambiguous loss impacts resilience in the context of teaching during the pandemic in the second phase. Results support the prediction that pandemic-related ambiguous loss may lead to enhanced resilience indirectly through increased stress and communal coping.

模糊损失、压力、共同应对和复原力:基于新冠肺炎大流行期间K-12教师经历和人际沟通的混合方法分析

摘要由于新冠肺炎大流行，美国各地的K-12教师经历了前所未有的角色变化，造成了模糊和压力。这项研究采用了混合方法来调查K-12教师在疫情期间应对压力的经历。调查涉及两个阶段的数据收集，从形成性焦点小组开始，为第二阶段的在线调查的发展提供信息。12名教师参加了第一阶段（K-5年级），163名教师（K-12年级）完成了在线调查，以确定在第二阶段疫情期间，模糊损失如何影响教学中的复原力。研究结果支持了一种预测，即与疫情相关的模糊损失可能通过增加压力和共同应对间接导致韧性增强。
