Abstract

The professional pressure of university teachers not only affects the quality of higher education, but also affects the stability of teachers. This paper makes a questionnaire survey on the occupational stress of some teachers in different levels of colleges and universities in Anyang City, Henan Province. The results show that: a considerable number of teachers have greater pressure on teaching and scientific research. There are obvious differences in the pressure of teachers with different gender, professional title, age, school level and major. The pressure source can be divided into internal pressure source and external pressure source. Society, schools and individuals should attach great importance to it. Schools should appropriately reduce teachers’ teaching and research burden, society and family should understand and support more, teachers themselves should adjust their own mentality, in order to reduce occupational pressure, maintain and promote mental health.
