The Relationship of Work-Family Conflict and Preschool Teachers’ Turnover Intentions: The Sequential Mediating Roles of Professional Identity and Job Burnout

Abstract

Abstract: In order to explore the relationship between work-family conflict and preschool teachers’ turnover intention, 992 preschool teachers were recruited to complete the Work-Family Conflict Scale, Professional Identity Scale, Job Burnout Scale and Turnover Intention Scale. The results showed that: 1) Work-family conflict, professional identity, job burnout and preschool teachers’ turnover intention were significantly related with each other. 2) Work-family conflict had a positive effect on preschool teachers’ turnover intention. 3) Work-family conflict had a positive effect on preschool teachers’ turnover intention through the meditating role of professional identity and job burnout. Professional identity and job burnout play a sequential mediating role in the relationship between work-family conflict and preschool teachers’ turnover intention.

Key words: work-family conflict, turnover intention, professional identity, job burnout, preschool teacher

摘要： 为了探讨工作−家庭冲突与幼儿教师离职意向的关系。采用工作−家庭冲突量表、幼儿教师职业认同感量表、教师职业倦怠量表和离职意向量表对992名幼儿教师进行测验。结果表明：（1）工作−家庭冲突、职业认同感、职业倦怠和幼儿教师离职意向水平彼此之间显著相关。（2）工作−家庭冲突可以显著预测幼儿教师离职意向水平。（3）工作−家庭冲突可以通过职业认同感和职业倦怠形成的链式中介作用预测幼儿教师离职意向水平。职业认同感和职业倦怠在工作−家庭冲突对幼儿教师离职意向的预测路径中起序列中介作用。
