Abstract
Because child-care teachers in Korea have heavy workloads and worse treatment than in other teaching positions, their job stress level and turnover rate are high. There is a need for research to alleviate the turnover rate of child-care teachers. Therefore, our purpose was to verify the roles of grit in the influences of job stress on turnover intention through emotional commitment and job satisfaction of Korean child-care teachers. We used SPSS Win. 25.0 and PROCESS macro for SPSS version 3.5 programs to carry out frequency analysis, reliabilityanalysis, correlation analysis, and moderated mediation effect analysis. First, as a result of correlation analysis, there was a statistically significant correlation between all variables. Second, the moderated mediating effect of grit on the double mediating effect of emotional commitment and job satisfaction in the link between job stress and turnover intention was verified. This results can be used as a basic model using grit to reduce child-care center teachers’ turnover intention
