Abstract: In order to examine the factors that influence on teacher burnout at the individual and organizational levels,370 teachers as subjects from 39 primary schools were chosen.Hierarchical Linear Model(HLM)results revealed that(1)collective teacher efficacy negatively predicted emotional exhaustion,personal accomplishment and depersonalization;and there was a direct positive relationship between the care to people and personal accomplishment;(2)collective teacher efficacy and the care to work weaken the negative relationship of teacher efficacy and emotional exhaustion,but the care to people factor could promote the negative relationship of teacher efficacy and emotional exhaustion;(3)leadership behavior of principle could moderate the relationship of gender and teacher burnout,school ages and teacher burnout.The care to work factor induced the lower personal accomplishment for women,and had much more effect on teachers who had been working many years in school.However,concerning accomplishment and depersonalization,the care to people factor had much more effects on teachers who had been working few years in school.

Key words: teacher burnout, collective teacher efficacy, leadership behavior of principle, teacher efficacy, school ages
