Abstract: To explore the relationship between core self-evaluation and job burnout,and also the mediating effects of coping style,425 primary school teachers in Guangzhou were selected to fill questionnaires of Core Self-evaluation Scale(CSES),Trait Coping Style Questionnaire(TCSQ),and Chinese Maslach Burnout Inventory(CMBI).The results indicated as follows:(1) Core self-evaluation had negative predictions to emotional exhaustion,depersonali-zation and reduced personal accomplishment;(2) Coping style mediated the effect of core self-evaluation on job burnout.Specifically,positive coping style partially mediated the impact of core self-evaluation on emotional exhaustion and reduced personal accomplishment,and fully mediated the relationship between core self-evaluation and depersonalization.Meanwhile,negative coping style partially mediated the relationship between core self-evaluation and emotional exhaustion,and wholly mediated the effect of core self-evaluation on depersonalization.

Key words: core self-evaluation, coping style, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, reduced personal accomplishment
