The aim of this study is to investigate whether emotions play a mediating role in determining the effect of teachers' psychological capital (PsyCap) on the quality of work life (QWL).
The current study presents an investigation on the mediating role of emotions and their effect on teachers' PsyCap at their work life. The study used scales including Psychological Capital Scale (PsyCapS), Quality of Work Life Scale (QWLS) and Emotions Scale (ES). The scales were all applied to administrators and teachers in state schools in TRNC. The sample of the study consists of 369 teachers and school administrators. Data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 for descriptive statistics and correlation analyses. In addition, structural equation modeling was performed with AMOS to examine the potential mediating effect of emotions on the relationship between PsyCap and QWL.
As a result, the mediating role of emotions in the relationship between teachers' PsyCap and perceptions of QWL was fully supported. There was a significant correlation between teachers' PsyCap, perceptions of QWL and emotions. PsyCap was found to have a significant and positive effect on both emotions and perceptions of QWL. In addition, PsyCap was found to have a significant positive relationship with QWL.
Among TRNC teachers, PsyCap has a significant positive relationship with both emotions and perceptions of QWL. PsyCap can directly or indirectly increase the perception of QWL through the relationship with emotions. Therefore, teachers' positive PsyCap can positively increase their emotions and perceptions of QWL.
本研究旨在调查情绪在教师心理资本（PsyCap）对工作生活质量（QWL）的影响中是否起中介作用。
本研究对情绪的中介作用及其对教师工作生活中心理资本的影响进行了调查。研究使用了包括心理资本量表（PsyCapS）、工作生活质量量表（QWLS）和情绪量表（ES）在内的量表。这些量表均应用于北塞浦路斯土耳其共和国国立学校的管理人员和教师。研究样本包括369名教师和学校管理人员。使用SPSS 27.0进行描述性统计和相关性分析。此外，使用AMOS进行结构方程建模，以检验情绪对心理资本与工作生活质量之间关系的潜在中介作用。
结果表明，情绪在教师心理资本与工作生活质量感知之间的关系中起中介作用得到了充分支持。教师的心理资本、工作生活质量感知和情绪之间存在显著相关性。发现心理资本对情绪和工作生活质量感知均有显著的正向影响。此外，心理资本与工作生活质量之间存在显著的正相关关系。
在北塞浦路斯土耳其共和国的教师中，心理资本与情绪和工作生活质量感知均存在显著的正相关关系。心理资本可以通过与情绪的关系直接或间接地提高工作生活质量的感知。因此，教师积极的心理资本可以积极地提高他们的情绪和工作生活质量感知。
