Teachers' Self-Efficacy vs. Parental Involvement: Prediction and Implementation
Fisher, Yael; Kostelitz, Yifat
Leadership and Policy in Schools, v14 n3 p279-307 2015
This research examines the influence of teachers' views regarding parental involvement on their perception of self-efficacy. Data were collected from a sample of 319 Israeli elementary schools teachers. A path analysis procedure was employed to test the mediating effect of personal background and organizational variables and perceived parental involvement on teachers' perception of self-efficacy. Results indicated that the most influential factor for predicting the organizational component of teachers' perceived self-efficacy was being part of the school leadership team, while the most influential factor for predicting the pedagogical component of teachers' perceived self-efficacy was teachers' view of parental involvement in resources.
