Abstract
This two-part study examined the factor structure of the Teacher Efficacy Scale and correlations of this scale with the teaching behaviors of 435 student-teacher interns. The two resulting factors accounted for about 18% of the variance, and only three significant but small correlations were observed between the Personal Teacher Efficacy factor and lesson presenting, questioning, and classroom management behaviors.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
