“…It conforms to the findings of Ugwuanyi et al (2020) that poor parenting and parental support resulted in poor performance of the learners. Thus, they recommended that there should have a sufficient time that parents have to give to their children.…”

Teaching of reaching brought a monumental implication to teaching and learning. This qualitative-narrative research aimed to determine the narratives of Cotabato Foundation College of Science and Technology Elementary Laboratory School. Results showed that teachers were challenged by unresponsive learners, lack of parental support, and lack of reading materials. Meanwhile, they provided their learners with remedial reading activities. They advised that teachers must be passionate and compassionate in handling learners to enhance their reading skills.

“…In this regard, a correlational survey research design was adopted for the study as the research sought the nature and magnitude of the relationships between rural community‐based primary school teachers' demographic characteristics and their work deviant behavior. This paradigm, approach, and research design have been adopted by recent researchers in similar studies (C. S. Ugwuanyi, Okeke, & Ageda, 2020 ; C. S. Ugwuanyi, Okeke, & Njeze, 2020 ).…”

Schools across the globe and especially in Nigeria have witnessed situations in which teachers work outside their work ethics. This situation breeds exhibition of work deviant behaviors among the teachers at different levels of education as evidenced in the literature. However, literature is scarce on the influence of teachers' demographic characteristics on their work deviant behaviors in primary schools. Thus, this study was necessitated to explore the determinants of work deviant behaviors of rural community‐based primary school teachers in Enugu State, Nigeria. This study was anchored on the affective events theory propounded by Weiss and Cropanzano. Basing the study on the quantitative research approach, a correlational survey research design was adopted using a sample of 254 rural community‐based primary school teachers. Necessary information for the study were collected using researchers' adapted questionnaire on work deviant behaviors with 28 items. The questionnaire items had an internal consistency reliability index of 0.87. Data collected were analyzed using hierarchical multiple regression analysis and the structural equation modeling approach. It was revealed that among the demographic characteristics (age, working status, qualification, marital status, gender, years of teaching experience, and location) of the teachers, only age and qualification were found to be significantly (p < 0.05) related to work deviant behaviors. The implication of this study, therefore, is that the age and qualification of rural community‐based primary school teachers determine the nature of their work deviant behaviors. Thus, it was recommended that the age and qualification of teachers should be considered very paramount in the employment of teachers.

“…In this regard, the study used a correlational survey research design, as the goal was to determine the nature and extent of the correlations between primary school teachers' demographic features and their psychosocial work hazards. Recent scholars have used this paradigm, strategy, and research design in comparable investigations (Ugwuanyi, Okeke, & Ageda, 2020; Ugwuanyi, Okeke, & Njeze, 2020).…”

Most workers, especially teachers experience one form of psychosocial work hazards or the other. In the Nigerian context, there is a high prevalence of psychosocial work hazards and no study has been conducted to ascertain the influence of teachers’ demographics on their psychosocial work hazards. This study explored the influence of primary school teachers’ demographics on their psychosocial work hazards using the structural equation modeling approach. Drawing from the tenets of Job‐Demand‐Control‐Support theory, a correlational survey research design was used, using a sample of 254 primary school teachers, and the study was based on a quantitative research approach. The study's data were gathered utilizing a 28‐item questionnaire adapted from the 30‐item Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire developed by Kristensen and coworkers in 2005. The internal consistency reliability index of the questionnaire items was 0.74. The data were analyzed using a combination of frequency, percentage, chi‐square test of independent samples, hierarchical multiple regression analysis, and structural equation modeling. It was revealed that demographic characteristics of teachers correlated with their psychosocial work hazards. However, it was found that only the age and location of the teachers had significant (p < .05) relationships with their psychosocial work hazards. The age and location of the teachers are significant determinants of their psychosocial work hazards. This our findings call for more research on the subject matter as some recent studies have documented that other demographics of teachers had significant relationships with psychosocial work hazards. It was therefore recommended that teachers’ demographics should be considered as important factors in the recruitment of teachers.
