Measuring Teachers' Self-Efficacy Beliefs: Development and Use of the TEBS-Self
Dellinger, Amy B.; Bobbett, Jacquline J.; Olivier, Dianne F.; Ellett, Chad D.
Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, v24 n3 p751-766 Apr 2008
This paper distinguishes between teacher efficacy and teacher self-efficacy beliefs and describes a need for theory and research-based measures of teachers' self-efficacy beliefs that are grounded in the context of the classroom. To meet this need, a new measure of teacher self-efficacy beliefs, the Teachers' Efficacy Beliefs System-Self (TEBS-Self), is described by the authors. Principal components analysis results are presented from three independent studies performed in the United States (n = 2373 K-6 teachers) using the TEBS-Self.
