Autoeficacia en docentes de educación general básica y bachillerato general unificado

Abstract

Abstract The goal of the current investigation was to describe the self-efficacy level of teachers from Basic General Education and General Unified Baccalaureate. The study has a quantitative approach with a descriptive and relational influence. The sample consists of 92 teachers, 44 men and 48 women who belong to two public schools of Cuenca city. The instrument used was the Teacher’ Sense of Efficacy Scale(Tschannen – Moran y Woolfolk Hoy, 2001) adapted to Spanish by Covarrubias (2014). The results have demonstrated that most teachers have a high level of self-efficacy, also it was determined that sex is not a variable that influences the self-efficacy level as same as years of teaching. On the other hand, it was found that the academic formation level and the educational level where the teacher works are related to the self-efficacy.
