Summary/Abstract: Many researches carried out in different countries prove that teachers’ job is one of the most stressful. The goal of present study is to explore sources of the stress experienced by Lithuanian teachers. 300 teachers (276 females and 24 males) from different towns and regions of Lithuania took part in the research.
