ABSTRACT:
The personality qualities of teachers are crucial because they work with a wide range of students. This study aimed to determine the personality traits and work stress tolerance of teachers in three secondary schools in the west ii district of the division of Cagayan de Oro City during the school year 2023-2024. Specifically, the study sought to identify teachers’ personality traits based on extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness, determine the level of teachers’ work stress tolerance, and identify the significant relationship between teachers’ personality traits and work stress tolerance. The study employed a descriptive-correlational and causal method using an adapted and modified survey-questionnaire. Conducted to 101 respondents who were selected through stratified random sampling using the Slovin’s formula. Descriptive statistics were utilized like, mean, standard deviation, Pearson product moment correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression. The study revealed that teachers most of the time possess conscientiousness personality traits and are uncertain about extroversion. Students with lack of learning motivation caused teachers to get stressed. Neuroticism personality trait has a significant relationship with work stress tolerance. Thus, teachers may proactively develop and share strategies for motivating students and may establish personalized stress management programs that cater to individuals with higher neurotic tendencies.
