Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to investigate the Effectiveness of emotional intelligence on job burnout among primary school teachers in Babol (Mazandaran, Iran)as mediated by their self-efficacy. This is a descriptive correlational study clearly based on structural equation modeling (SEM). The participants of this study were 225 primary school teachers at public schools in Babol in the academic year 1391-92 that were selected via cluster random sampling method. Participants were requested to personally complete Maslach and Jackson's Job Burnout Inventory (MBI) (1996), teacher self-efficacy questionnaire (Tschannen-Moran, Woolfolk, 2001) and emotional intelligence questionnaire (Schutte, 1998). The reliability of the questionnaires calculated through Cronbach Alpha were 0/86, 0/92 and 0/91 respectively. The results of Pearson correlation showed that all emotional intelligence, job burnout and self-efficacy components are mutually correlated with each other (p<0/01). Implementing structural equation modeling (SEM) for relationship between emotional intelligence and job burnout through the mediator variable self-efficacy, it was realized that the proposed model has a good fit and burnout is well explained by emotional intelligence and self-efficacy. Also all of the model path coefficients were significant.
