Abstract

Life satisfaction is of great significance to human beings. Based on the conservation of resource theory, the study investigates the direct and indirect impact of ebullient supervision on life satisfaction. This study investigated how ebullient supervision is related to teachers’ life satisfaction and how workaholism mediates this relation. It also investigates the moderating role of family motivation on the ebullient supervision and workaholism relationship. The data were collected using self-report survey questionnaires by utilizing a time-lagged cross-sectional study design. A moderated mediation model was tested on an actual sample of 401 using Process Macro by Hayes. The findings of our study show that ebullient supervision promotes workaholism and boost life satisfaction. It is found that workaholism enhances the life satisfaction of teachers. Finally, we also found that the relationship between ebullient supervision and workaholism is weaker when family motivation is high.
