Teacher Victimization, Burnout, and School Climate: Insights from a U.S. Study

Teacher victimization leads to negative outcomes, including burnout, which affects emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Building on Yang et al. (2022), who found that individual-level school climate did not moderate the victimization-burnout link in China, this aims to replicate these findings with K-12 teachers in the U.S. This study investigates the association between teacher victimization and burnout dimensions and explores whether school climate at the individual level moderates this relationship. K-12 classroom teachers will be recruited through snowball sampling. Using a cross-sectional design, participants will complete self-report measures on teacher victimization, burnout, and school climate. Regression analyses and structural equation modeling will assess associations and explore the moderating effects of school climate. unknown other
