To respond to the rapid development of society and global trends, the Ministry of Education launched a new curriculum in 2019, bringing new challenges and pressures to secondary school teachers. Teacher resilience has thus become increasingly important. The main purpose of this study is to integrate the results of expert focus group discussions and develop a resilience inventory suitable for secondary school teachers, in order to understand their resilience status. Additionally, the study uses openended questions to investigate the risk factors affecting teacher resilience following the implementation of the new curriculum. A total of 204 secondary school teachers participated in this study. The major findings are as follows: (1) The Teacher Resilience Inventory comprises 17 items and demonstrates high reliability and validity, with a Cronbach’s alpha of .95. It encompasses four core dimensions: emotional regulation, positive classroom management, resource use and intelligent response, and passion in teaching and reflection—capturing the key protective strategies underlying teacher resilience. (2) Teachers reported moderate to high levels of resilience, with no significant differences observed across teaching levels or years of experience. (3) Nine major risk factors were identified, with the most common across junior and senior high school teachers being emotional regulation difficulties, student behavioral issues, mindset-related stress, and limited support systems. Notably, emotional regulation difficulties consistently emerged as the most prominent risk factor. Based on the research findings, this study recommends that educational authorities and schools develop specific improvement strategies targeting key risk factors affecting teacher resilience, in order to strengthen the protective factors that support it. In the future, teacher resilience literacy could also be integrated into teacher education programs and professional development programs to further enhance teachers’psychological resilience. Moreover, schools should develop school-based support action plans to actively foster a supportive environment that promotes teachers’mental health and professional development. |
