The Impact of Conscious Discipline on Teacher Efficacy and Burnout: Perspectives for Elementary Teachers
Cooper, Lori A.
International Journal of Education Policy and Leadership, v15 n14 2019
This study examined the impact of Conscious Discipline® on Michigan elementary teachers' perceptions of their self-efficacy and burnout levels. Teachers completed a survey of the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES) and Maslach's Burnout Inventory (MBI) and were observed using a fidelity instrument (Rain, 2014) by the researcher five months after the adoption of Conscious Discipline® school-wide in the treatment group (n = 12). The control group (n = 15) was matched with similar student population demographics, and the same surveys and fidelity instrument (Rain, 2014) were used. Results from this study found no statistical significance in the TSES or MBI scores between those in treatment and control groups. Additionally, no statistical significance was found in the observed implementation level of Conscious Discipline® and efficacy or burnout scores.
