Identificación del Estrés en docentes Ecuatorianos de Educación Básica durante la pandemia de Covid 19 - en el Año 2021

Abstract

Abstract: This research work aims to identify the factors related to work stress to which the teachers of a private educational institution in the city of Quito were exposed to adapt to teleworking as a result of Covid 19. The information was collected through surveys in line and the results were obtained with instruments endorsed with reliability and scientific validity: Ad-hoc Questionnaire, Chronic Stress Inventory of Maslach and Jackson (1986), Inventory of Tecnoestrés et al. (2007), Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS -21) and Multidimensional Scale for the Assessment of Coping Styles (BRIEF -COPE/28). The sample is made up of 53 teachers, men and women of basic education and high school. The results show that, in general, there was no greater affectation due to the different types of coping, but in the process, they did experience stress, anxiety, physical and emotional exhaustion due to psychosocial and environmental factors, but the results indicate that in these teachers the stress and techno-stress were moderate, therefore, there was no burnout and their mental health was not affected.
