Article Title: Perceived Stressors of Lecturers at the University of Ghana
by Samuel Atindanbila

Abstract:
This study examined the perceived stressors that lecturers at the University of Ghana encounter in their work. Four hundred and thirty two lecturers were drawn from the University of Ghana for the study. The data was collected using the Teacher Stress Inventory. MANOVA, ANOVA and Independent Sample t tests were used to analyze the data. Analyses of the data revealed that lecturers had moderate stress levels and their major stressors were related to the school environment whilst the least was the administrative role. The Junior Lecturers perceive more stressors than the senior ones and the Professors. However; it was found that all the faculties experience similar levels of stressors. The recommendations centred mainly on expanding on existing infrastructural facilities in the University and improving on the working conditions of lecturers.
Keywords: perceived stressors, lecturers, university of Ghana, rank of lecturers
