Abstract

Introduction: The present study investigates the relationship between life skills and organizational citizenship behavior with burnout in English teachers of Torbat Heydariyeh
Methods: This study was a correlational study. The population of the study is 400 English teachers of first and second grade secondary education in Torbat Heydariyeh city and its surrounding areas. Sampling was done by simple random sampling and included 196 first and second grade English language teachers. Data gathering tools are the Life Skills Questionnaire of Chi Chi et al. Teachers (2010), the Podsakov et al. (1990) Organizational Citizenship Behavior Questionnaire, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (1981). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, regression and one way ANOVA using SPSS 18 software.
Results: : The findings of the present study regarding the relationship between life skills with burnout of English teachers as well as organizational citizenship behavior with burnout of English language teachers are inconsistent with previous research in some components.
Conclusion: The results showed that there is a significant relationship between life skills and citizenship behavior (r = 0.91, p <0.01) and also between sub-components. But in some subscales such as fairness with creative thinking (p> 0.05 and r = 0.26) there is no significant relationship.
