Abstract

This study investigates the risk factors influencing the psychological wellbeing of high school educators in Shenzhen City, China, with a focus on the mediating role of organizational culture. Utilizing a quantitative research design, data were collected from a sample of high school educators using validated measures of job burnout, work engagement, managerialism, organizational culture, and psychological wellbeing. The findings revealed significant relationships between risk factors (job burnout, work engagement, and managerialism) and psychological wellbeing among educators. Organizational culture was found to mediate the relationship between these risk factors and psychological wellbeing, highlighting the importance of supportive work environments in mitigating the negative effects of job-related stressors. The study provides insights into the complex interplay between individual and organizational factors in shaping educator wellbeing and underscores the need for targeted interventions and policy initiatives to promote psychological health among high school educators in Shenzhen City, China.
