Abstract

This study aimed to investigate how trust in leader impacts job satisfaction, mediated by self-efficacy, among teachers in higher vocational colleges in China. Data from 339 teachers were collected via an online questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation modeling, and mediation analysis were conducted to assess the relationship. The results revealed that trust in leader significantly influenced both job satisfaction and self-efficacy. Furthermore, self-efficacy was found to positively influence job satisfaction and play a partial mediating role in the relationship between trust in leaders and job satisfaction. These findings highlight the critical role of building trust in leadership and enhancing teacher self-efficacy as an effective means to bolster job satisfaction among educators.
