Calling and Grit’s Relationship with Teacher Burnout and Work Outcomes

This study examines how burnout, calling, and grit relate to counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs) and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) in K-12 teachers. Results show that burnout and its dimensions correlate with more CWBs and fewer OCBs, while calling and grit (particularly perseverance) are associated with fewer CWBs and more OCBs.
