Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Emotional Regulation (X1) and Work Motivation (X2) on Work Stress (Y) among civil servant teachers. The research method employed a quantitative approach with data collected through valid and reliable questionnaires. Multiple regression analysis showed that Emotional Regulation and Work Motivation significantly affect Work Stress, with regression coefficients of 0.656 and 0.454 respectively (p < 0.05). The F-test results indicate that the regression model is statistically significant, with an F-value of 71.176 and a p-value of 0.000, confirming that Emotional Regulation and Work Motivation simultaneously have a significant influence on Work Stress. Furthermore, the t-test results show that both independent variables have a significant partial effect on Job Stress, with a t-value of 7.941 (p = 0.000) for Emotional Regulation and 6.164 (p = 0.000) for Work Motivation. A correlation coefficient (R) of 0.869 and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.756 indicate a very strong relationship, where the two independent variables together explain 75.6% of the variation in Work Stress. These findings confirm the importance of emotional management and enhancing work motivation as key strategies to reduce stress levels among civil servant teachers. The study also aligns with previous research that highlights the crucial role of emotional regulation and motivation in addressing job stress within educational settings.
