Abstract

Emotional intelligence (EI) and resilient coping (RC) have shown positive links with occupational commitment (OC). Considering the lack of research in this area, the present study examines the role of RC as a mediator and moderator in the relationship between EI and OC in a sample of 338 pre-service teachers (58.9% female; Mage= 26.85, SD= 5.66). Results showed that RC mediated (B= .20; CI= .02, .37), but did not moderate this relationship (B= -.01; CI= -.31, .29). Implications for the design of strategies for promoting positive work attitudes in teacher professional development are discussed.
