| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to examine factors that play a role in the experience of job stress of tertiary education teachers in Jakarta. Variables included were gender of the teacher, type of institution being served (public or private), college affiliation (Economics, Accountancy, Engineering, Medicine, Law of Information Technology), self-esteem (as measured by the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale), and Work Commitment (as measured by the Work Commitment Index). Job stress was measured by the Work Stress Profile. There were 192 respondents (96 males, 96 females) selected by stratified random sampling. The statistical tools used were analysis of variance, Pearson product moment correlation, and stepwise multiple regressions. Analyses showed that male educators and educators from public universities experienced higher levels of job stress. There is a significant positive relationship between work commitment and job stress. Self-esteem and job stress have a significant negative relationship. The predictors of job stress are the gender of the educator, work commitment and type of institution. |
