eng Abstract:
The study consists of five parts. The overview from the research of the mental health of the Czech teachers is presented in the introduction. In the second part a history of the concept of the Emotional Stability/Instability (Neuroticism) is mentioned. The best known methods for measuring Emotional Stability/Instability (Neuroticism), specially NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) are described in the third part. The fourth part includes data from the research in which the teachers self-rated on the basis of the NEO Personality Inventory and also were rated by a second person for the same traits (Neuroticism). The results do not confirm a high level of Neuroticism and its facets among the teachers in comparsion with the control group, and also any statistically significant differences between the self-rating and peer-rating were confirmed. In conclusion the unambiguous results concering the level of Neuroticism among Czech teachers are dealt with.
