College teachers face significant psychological challenges, such as high job stress and low emotional intelligence, which impact their job satisfaction and mental health. This study, guided by resilience theory and conservation of resources theory, explores how job stress and emotional intelligence affect job satisfaction, with resilience acting as a mediator and gender as a moderator. A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online questionnaire platform, with 1020 college teachers randomly selected to participate. Participants completed standardized scales measuring job stress, emotional intelligence, resilience, and job satisfaction. PLS-SEM was used to analyze the relationships among the variables. Resilience diminished the harmful effects of job stress on job satisfaction and boosted the impact of emotional intelligence. Gender differences were noted in the influence of these factors on job satisfaction. This research emphasizes how resilience plays a crucial role in boosting job satisfaction by alleviating the adverse effects of job stress and amplifying the positive influence of emotional intelligence. The gender-based analysis provides practical insights for improving working conditions and promoting resilience and emotional intelligence in teachers. Future research should explore these factors' long-term effects.
高校教师面临着重大的心理挑战，如工作压力大、情商低等，这些都会影响他们的工作满意度和心理健康。本研究以复原力理论和资源守恒理论为指导，探讨工作压力和情商如何影响工作满意度，其中复原力作为中介变量，性别作为调节变量。采用在线问卷平台进行横断面研究，随机选取1020名高校教师参与。参与者完成了测量工作压力、情商、复原力和工作满意度的标准化量表。运用偏最小二乘结构方程模型（PLS-SEM）分析变量之间的关系。复原力减弱了工作压力对工作满意度的有害影响，并增强了情商的作用。这些因素对工作满意度的影响存在性别差异。本研究强调了复原力如何通过减轻工作压力的不利影响和放大情商的积极影响，在提高工作满意度方面发挥关键作用。基于性别的分析为改善工作条件以及提升教师的复原力和情商提供了实用见解。未来的研究应探讨这些因素的长期影响。
