THE LAW OF SOCIAL SUPPORT AND ITS IMPACT ON JOB STRESS AND DISENGAGEMENT AMONG ACADEMICIANS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Job stress is examined in relation with disengagement among university academicians. Moreover, the study examines social support's moderating effect on job stress and disengagement. Using convenient sampling, 592 university academicians self-administered a questionnaire. The study's results indicate a positive association between job stress, disengagement. In addition, social support is shown to moderate the relationship between job stress and disengagement. In addition to making recommendations for future directions, the study includes practical implications for administrations, academicians, and policymakers in Higher Education Institutions.
