Elementary Teacher Self-Efficacy after a Year of Teaching during COVID-19
Pressley, Tim; Rangel, Rachel
Psychology in the Schools, v60 n9 p3284-3297 Sep 2023
This study aimed to explore teacher self-efficacy after a year of teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, this study looked to replicate and extend previous research that explored teacher self-efficacy during COVID-19. The current study included 316 participants from the United States who completed the Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale. The results found that teachers who had previously won Teacher of the Year (TOY) awards was a significant predictor of total, instructional, and classroom management self-efficacy. Additionally, emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment significantly predicted all four self-efficacy scales. Finally, administrative support significantly predicted engagement and classroom management self-efficacy. The current study provides suggestions of variables that influenced teacher self-efficacy at the end of the 2020-2021 school year, which was impacted by COVID-19.
