Abstract

From the perspective of COR theory and based on JDR model, the research explores the relationship between work connectivity behavior after-hours and teachers' job performance including their influence path. Through the investigation and data collection of 542 senior high school teachers, the study draws the following conclusions: ① Work connectivity behavior after-hours has a negative impact on work performance ② Work connectivity behavior after-hours has a positive effect on job burnout ③ Job burnout partially mediates the relationship between work connectivity behavior after-hours and job performance ④ Role pressure positively moderates the effect of work connectivity behavior after-hours on job performance through job burnout.
