Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: A substantial proportion of lecturers in higher education experience low levels of well-being. The aim of this work was to examine the predictive role of resilience and demographic variables such as gender, working hours, nationality, teaching experience and faculty in relation to the well-being of university lecturers. An online survey was sent to a sample of 684 lecturers at a Dutch university. A multiple linear regression showed that nationality, working hours and resilience were significant predictors of well-being. The results of this study highlight the importance of assessing predictors of university lecturers’ well-being and the need for resilience-enhancing initiatives.
