SOUTO, Lyssa Esteves Souza et al. Factors Related to Healthcare Teachers’ Quality of Life. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2016, vol.40, n.3, pp.452-460. ISSN 1981-5271.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-52712015v40n3e02362014.

The present study aimed to describe quality of life and associated factors among teachers of undergraduate healthcare courses, by means of transversal research with a quantitative approach. The study was developed at a public university located in a medium-sized city in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The data was organized and analyzed using statistic program Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 18.0. Descriptive statistic, the T Student and Anova/post hoc – Bonferroni were all performed. The study identified good quality of life in the areas of psychology, social relations and environment, while the physical domain was regular. Teachers of under 43 who had been working for over 12 years, without a partner and who lived without their family and taught on the biology and medicine courses, showed a major tendency toward poor quality of life. Effective initiatives are recommended to promote health, especially among teachers with lower scores in quality of life.
