Based on previous literature, a questionnaire named “Survey on Work-related Difficulties and Coping Strategies of Preschool Educators” was developed. This questionnaire was administered to public preschool educators in Hsinchu County and Hsinchu City. A total of 498 questionnaires were distributed, and 351 valid responses were obtained, resulting in a valid response rate of 70.48%. The main findings were as follows: 1. The preschool educators perceived an intermediate to low level of work-related difficulties, with the difficulties in “school administration” being the highest and those in “interpersonal relationships” being the lowest. 2. Among their coping strategies, “Problem solving” was most frequently used, while “Avoidance and compromise” was least frequently used. 3. The preschool educators’ overall perception of work-related difficulties varied significantly by workplace, position, and class combination. 4. The preschool educators’ coping strategies for work-related difficulties varied significantly by length of service, workplace, and professional background. 5. In their use of the assistance seeking strategy, the preschool educators usually sought assistance from “class partners or school colleagues”; in their use of the problem solving strategy, they would usually “communicate and discuss with those concerned”; in their use of the self-adaptation strategy, “identifying and improving the problem through self-reflection” was their most frequent action; in their use of the avoidance and compromise strategy, “observing the situations before figuring out a solution” was most frequently adopted by them. 6. Difficulties in school administration and difficulties in interpersonal relationships were both slightly correlated with coping strategies.
