Social Support and Self-Efficacy in Problem Solving among Teacher Assistance Teams and School Staff.
Kruger, Louis J.
Journal of Educational Research, v90 n3 p164-68 Jan-Feb 1997
The relationship between social support and self-efficacy was investigated in teacher assistance team members and participating school staff members at 27 elementary schools. Social support factors examined were guidance, reliable alliance, and reassurance of worth. Findings showed reassurance of worth was strongly related to self-efficacy in problem-solving skills and planning interventions for students with problem behaviors. (SM)
