| Summary: | 碩士 === 樹德科技大學 === 經營管理研究所 === 104 === The current study aimed to examine the status quo and general scenario of emotional management and working pressure among special education teachers of elementary and junior high schools in Kaohsiung, and to investigate the differences in aforementioned aspects among different background variables. “Questionnaire of emotional management and working pressure among special education teachers of elementary and junior high schools in Kaohsiung” was adapted for data collection. Stratified random sampling was employed, with 313 copies issued and 290 valid data (92.65%) recycled. Analysis for the data collected included descriptive statistics, Independent-samples t-Test, One-way ANOVA, Scheffe''s Multiple Comparison, and Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient. The conclusions of the study were as follows:
(1) Emotional management among special education teachers of elementary and junior high schools in Kaohsiung was at an upper-intermediate level (M=4.00); working pressure was at an intermediate level (M=3.04).
(2) Significant differences in emotional management were not found among gender, age, marital status, position, grade level, and class; special education teachers of elementary and junior high schools in Kaohsiung with seriority more than 21 years and less than 10 showed significantly better emotional management than those with seriority between 11 to 20 years.
(3) Significant differences in working pressure were not found among gender, age, marital status, special education seniority, position, and class; in terms of different grade levels that teachers teach, working pressure among junior high school teachers was significantly higher than that among elementary school teachers.
