aspects of teacher whom educate children’s with special needs are rarely
discussed. As teacher has complex tasks in managing the learning pro- cess, it
is predicted that teacher‘s energy is more exhausted than teacher for normal
children. This research has two purposes, first to distinguish the ego
depletion at teachers with observing personality types. Second, to
differentiate teacher’s selfregulation in with observing personality types. The
research method used quantitative comparative approach. Participants in this
research were teachers who work in public school for students with special
needs in Semarang and Ungaran city. Participants were employed ego depletion
scale, scale of self-regulation, and introverted-extroverted personality
type-scale. The result showed that t = -0.917 (p> 0.05), which means there
was no difference between ego depletion with measuring personality type
(introvert and extrovert) of teachers. Subsequent analysis was known that score
t = -0.032 (p> 0.975), it means that there was no difference between selfregulation
and personality type (extrovert and introvert) of teachers. It can be concluded
that personality type (extrovert-introvert) doesn’t influence individual’s ego
depletion. Likewise, the self-regulation also doesn’t affected by the
personality type.
