A pandemia de COVID-19 teve impactos na educação que repercutiram na saúde mental dos professores. Este estudo objetivou avaliar a adequação psicométrica da Escala de Avaliação do Contexto de Trabalho Docente Remoto (EACTDR) e a prevalência e os preditores de Transtornos Mentais Comuns (TMCs). Participaram 235 docentes de uma universidade pública brasileira. A adaptação da EACTDR demonstrou evidências de validade a partir de análise fatorial exploratória, consistência interna e validade convergente. Constatou-se que 38,3% dos professores apresentavam TMCs. Os preditores foram: raça, renda, grupo de risco para a covid-19, idade e organização do trabalho.
