PERMA Model and EFL Teachers’ Well-Being: A Systematic Review

摘要

The purpose of this paper is to review recent researches from 2019 to 2024 related to the application of the PERMA model to have deeper insights about EFL teachers’ well-being. Based on the PRISMA guidelines, the review analyses findings from those studies focusing on Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Achievement. The review highlights how each factor brings positive effects to teachers’ well-being and the effectiveness of their teaching. It aims to find out the strengths and limitations of the current studies and fill in the gap in literature in this field. The result will offer practical applications of the framework to enhance the well-being of EFL teachers. Google Scholar is used to include the recent studies which are published in English. Further research should include a wide range of databases and study how this model has been applied in different educational contexts and diverse cultures to achieve the generalizability in this field.
