|a The purpose of this study was to survey teachers of students with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (EBD) and without EBD to determine if a relationship exists between a history of childhood trauma, degree of empathy, and level of job satisfaction. Teachers in a public school district in North Florida were surveyed using a demographic questionnaire, the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (Bernstein & Fink, 1998), the Multidimensional Emotional Empathy Scale (Caruso & Mayer, 1998), and the Teacher Job Satisfaction Survey (NCES, 1997). The questionnaires were mailed to 300 teachers (200 teacher of students without EBD and 100 teachers of students with EBD). Seventy-five teachers responded. Approximately half of the educators in the sample were teaching students with EBD (N=38, 50.7%) and about half were teaching general education students (N=37, 49.3%). Results revealed no significant relationship between empathy and childhood trauma, and between level of job satisfaction and childhood trauma in teachers of students with and without EBD. Findings showed a significant positive correlation between empathy and job satisfaction in teachers of students without EBD, but no significant correlation between empathy and job satisfaction in teachers of students with EBD. Surprisingly, findings showed that teachers of students without EBD reported significantly more sexual abuse and emotional neglect, compared to teachers of students with EBD. Additionally, results revealed that males reported more physical abuse and significantly less emotional attention and responsive crying (two of the six empathy subscales) than females. |
