Results: The hypothetical model showed a goodness-of-fit to the empirical data(GFI=0.90, RMR=0.04, NFI= 0.79, PNFI=0.64). Eight out of fifteen paths of the model were accepted, while the other seven paths rejected. : From ‘surface acting’ to ‘health’, from ‘social support’ to ‘surface acting’, from ‘social support’ to ‘health’, from ‘factors of organizational culture’ to ‘surface acting’, from ‘factors of organizational culture’ to ‘deep acting’, from ‘personal factor’ to ‘social support’, from ‘factors of organizational culture’ to ‘social support’, from ‘routine stress’ to ‘social support’.
