The statistical population of the study consists of female teachers of exceptional schools in Sari who were serving in 1400-1401, whose number is 109 people. Using Cochran's formula, 52 people were selected as a simple random sample. Data collection tools are three questionnaires: job value, Job enthusiasm and emotional flexibility.

Findings showed that job values ​​did not have a significant effect on emotional flexibility but Job enthusiasm had a significant effect and had a direct linear relationship with each other (r = 0.859). The results of multiple regression showed that Job enthusiasm as a predictor variable was able to significantly predict emotional flexibility and explain 73% of the variance.
