Abstract:
The present study determines the impact of occupational stress on job performance with mediating role of the cognitive coping in connecting occupational stress and job performance. The finite population of the present study comprised colleges’ lecturers in the physical education, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The scales of the job stress, coping mechanism and job performance were adapted from previous studies and were used for obtaining the desirable information. The statistical tests like correlation, regression and mediation process were used to test hypothesis. Results of study indicated a positive and significant association and impact among independent, dependent and mediator variables (r= .662; .881 & p=.000 < .01). Moreover, results indicated that cognitive coping produced partial mediation in-between job stress and job performance of the lecturer physical education. The physical educationists may ensure the contribution of the cognitive coping strategy in the perspective of enhancement of the occupational performance.
