Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Self-efficacy refers to different spheres of human functioning and to different tasks, including teaching activity. It is regarded as an important personal resource related to coping with stress. This paper was aimed at presenting psychometric properties of the Norwegian Teachers Self-Efficacy Scale (NTSES), related to these beliefs in the group of teachers. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Psychometric properties of the scale were evaluated on the basis of the data obtained from 404 teachers of elementary and middle schools. RESULTS:Our analyses of exploratory and confirmatory factor revealed a 3-dimensional structure, but not a 6-dimensional structure of NTSES as obtained in the original Norwegian study. They also showed high reliability and construct validity coefficients. Teachers self-efficacy was positively correlated with general self-efficacy, internal locus of control and negatively with job burnout. CONCLUSIONS:Although NTSES can be used in the study of Polish teachers, this should be done with great caution and the measure of global index of NTSES should be used. Additional studies on a larger sample of teachers are recommended. Med Pr 2017;68(6):743-755. WSTĘP:Specyficzne przekonania o własnej skuteczności są traktowane w wielu modelach stresu jako ważny zasób osobisty, ułatwiający radzenie sobie ze stresem. Celem niniejszego opracowania było przedstawienie psychometrycznych właściwości Norweskiej Skali Poczucia Własnej Skuteczności Nauczycieli (Norwegian Teachers Self-Efficacy Scale – NTSES) – narzędzia do pomiaru takich przekonań w grupie nauczycieli szkół podstawowych, gimnazjalnych i średnich. MATERIAŁ I METODY:Dane zebrano wśród 404 nauczycieli. Przeprowadzono eksploracyjną i konfirmacyjną analizę czynnikową, a także analizy rzetelności i trafności teoretycznej narzędzia. WYNIKI:Wyniki analizy czynnikowej nie potwierdziły 6-składnikowej budowy skali, jaką uzyskano w badaniach norweskich, wskazując na jej 3-wymiarową konstrukcję. Analizy pokazały, że NTSES cechuje się zadowalającymi miarami rzetelności i trafności teoretycznej. Specyficzne przekonania o własnej skuteczności nauczycieli korelowały dodatnio z uogólnionym przekonaniem o własnej skuteczności, wewnętrznym umiejscowieniem kontroli oraz ujemnie z wypaleniem zawodowym. WNIOSKI:Chociaż NTSES może być wykorzystany w badaniach polskich nauczycieli, powinien być stosowany z dużą ostrożnością. Zalecane jest używanie zagregowanego wskaźnika przekonań o własnej skuteczności. Wskazane są dodatkowe badania na większej próbie nauczycieli. Med. Pr. 2017;68(6):743–755.
