Abstract

The study examined the linkage between harmonious and obsessive passion, teachers’ affective-motivational (academic optimism) and cognitive (cognitive engagement) characteristics, and occupational stress. Both passion variants significantly predicted occupational stress, and academic optimism mediated the passion-stress linkage. The findings of the study are important in educational settings.
