Abstract

          Professional mental health of university teachers is the foundation of psychological education. Universities attach great importance to teachers' educational level and scientific research achievements, pay attention to teachers' instrumental value, and pay little attention to teachers' professional psychology. By investigating the current situation of university teachers' mental health, this study aims to understand the level of university teachers' mental health, explore the factors that influence the level of university teachers' mental health and the relationship with social support and professional competence, and provide reference for promoting university teachers' mental health and enhancing their psychological quality. The results show that there is a significant negative correlation between mental health and competence, a significant negative correlation between mental health and social support, and a significant positive correlation between competence and social support. Competency has a significant mediating effect between college teachers' mental health and social support.
