By using stratified random sampling method, a sample of 250 college teachers was selected for data collection. Findings revealed that college teachers of Jammu region possess deficient coping behaviour; however, it is independent of the effect of gender. Correlation results indicated no relationship existed between the coping behaviour adopted by the college teachers and their organisational commitment.
