each other? The impact of Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher
Motivation and Teacher Self-Efficacy, which will be reflected in the
achievement of educational objectives.
Need for the Study:
Very few investigations are made on the Teacher Value Behaviour
and very few of them attempted the aspects of Teacher Motivation and
Teacher Self-Efficacy. Rao, R.B. (1989) states that the quality or
effectiveness of teacher is considered to be associated with his
attitude towards his profession, his attainment of values and
adjustment in the job and professional interest.
Similarly the Education Commission of 1964-66 observed that
‘the weakening of social and moral values in the younger generation is
creating many serious social and ethical conflicts. It has become
necessary and urgent to adopt active measures to give a proper value
orientation to education.
The National Policy on Education (1986) stressed the need of
‘readjustment in the curriculum in order to make education a forceful
tool for the cultivation of social and moral values’.
From the above observations it is clear that the significance of
inculcation of value education among the younger generation of the
nation is undoubtedly possible only through education. Thus,
education will be enriched with the efforts of better-motivated teacher
and his efficacy in the Teaching learning process. The present day
teacher should have a value based behaviour and professional
competency. The Delor’s Commission (1996), asserted ‘it is the
teacher whose role and help immensely in the inculcation of value’.
The Education Commission (1964-66) has also emphasized that
‘nothing is more important than providing teachers best professional
2
preparations and creating satisfactory condition of work in which there
can fully be effective’. Problem solving abilities can be improved by
teaching problem, creative problem solving ability (Trifinger, ‘The
Power of Creative Behaviour’, 1973-74, pp.8,20-29 USA). But no
significant efforts are found to ascertain the relationship between
Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Efficacy.
Whereas, Stern (1967) defined the acquisition of problem solving
strategies in young children and its relation to verbalization’ (Journal of
Educational Psychology, 58, 245 – 252, USA).
An ideal teacher possesses love and warmth towards students,
inclination and love towards the subject, flexibility of mind to imitate,
imbibe and invite new strategies. Such a teacher can make classroom
atmosphere lively by motivating the child towards the educating the
process and thus pave way for effective school ethos, classroom
climate and zeal in the minds of the individuals. Motivation in the
world, which is quite often used in the executive process, as it is apt to
say that motivation, is right royal road for learning. Further, motivation
reflects upon the educational standards. To establish motivation in the
minds of individuals towards the teaching content, the teacher should
cultivate idea readiness, which assists him in the teaching process.
Thus, only a motivated teacher, who is devoted, committed and one
who acts as a mission will be need of the day. As and when the
educational standards fall, the teacher should not be the butt of
ridicule, which may be one among many factors for the deterioration of
standards.
To mound tiny kinds and budding youngsters into ideal
democratic citizens the teacher should be exemplary, ideal and
devoted to the profession with effectiveness. An intellectual expertise,
3
real aptitude to teaching, positive inclination towards the profession
and relentless effort to make a mark in the profession will really make
the teacher effective.
Can teacher Self-efficacy be reared and nurtured to reach its
peak? Do all teachers possess the same level and extent of teaching
self-efficacy? How does teacher self-efficacy act as a source to
enhance school effectiveness? The theory of Bandura (1977, ‘Self-
efficacy: toward a unifying theory of behavioural change, that an
individual’s motivation includes being assertive (Psychological Review,
84, 191-215).
The need of the present investigation is to probe into the
relationship between Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and
Teacher Self-Efficacy. The conceptual framework on the above three
aspects is being attempted and presented in the following chapter.

of education’. They should be competent, devoted committed and
exemplary, with expertise and shrewd intelligence.
Can Teacher Value Behaviour be arrived without Teacher
Motivation and Self-Efficacy? Is the Teacher Value Behaviour having
any significant impact of Teacher Motivation and Self-Efficacy? Do
Teacher Motivation and Self-Efficacy act as significant source of
Teacher Value Behaviour? To make a probe into these queries, the
investigator has opted to study the Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher
Motivation and Teacher Self-Efficacy. In this study three major
components viz., Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and
Teacher Self-Efficacy are the research problems. Regarding the
conceptual framework of the above major components with definitions
is discussed herewith.
TEACHER VALUE BEHAVIOUR:
The famous observation made by a great educationist that ‘man
has learnt how to fly like a bird in the sky, man has learnt how to swim
like a fish in the waters; but unfortunately man has forgotten how to
live like the man in the society’ is the real inspiration for the present
study. Human life is closely associated with meaningful and useful life
structure but not mere living and eating, which an animal will usually
do the things. This unique structure of meaningful life is possible only
with education. The education imbibes mainly the value structure and
value based behavioural patterns. The present day educational
scenario is time and time emphasizing the works like values value
education value based education, educational values etc. By the
above, it can be said that education should focus the values among the
teachers, the learners, by interaction of the society.
Meaning and Definition of Values:
6
Value is a modified belief and a specific mode of conduct. Values
are concepts and not mere feelings in fact values exist in the mind
independently. Rokeach (1973 - Dissertation) defined value as ‘an
enduring belief, a specific mode of conduct’. Klukohn (1975 -
Dissertation) ‘a value is a preference as well as the conception of the
preferable’. Shaver (1976 views that ‘values are standards and
principles for judging worth from the above views, we can that values
are inherent, conduct behaviour’.
So the education is the main instrument of inculcating the value
behaviour among the younger generation, the new policy on
education, 1986 is also emphasized the five values that are
cleanliness, truthfulness, hard work, equality and cooperation. The
preamble Indian Constitution focused four universal values. They are
justice, liberty, equality and fraternity likewise. The Indians sculptures
like Vedas, Upanishads and Puranas are also focused the value
behaviour among the generation.
Teacher is the main source of inculcating the value system among
the learners through his effective teaching-learning process education
is a weapon f any social structure in it teacher is the main architect.
The eminent Scholar Dr.S.Radha Krishnan (1949, Report of University
Education Commission,1948-49, Government of India) rightly pointed
out that ‘the teacher is architect of any nation’. The Indian Education
Commission (1964-66) observed that ‘of all the different factors, which
influence the quality of education and its contribution to National
Development, the quality, competency and character of teachers are
undoubtedly the most significant’. Nothing is more important than a
teacher with good character and competency in his profession. The
Upanishads also devoted the teacher with Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.
7
The successive recommendations found their place in the provisions of
the National Policy on Education (1986), which clearly recommended:
‘Readjustment in the curriculum in order to make education a forceful
tool for the cultivation of social and moral values’. The Ramamurty
Committee (1990 – Report of Ramamurthy Committee on Review of the
NPE-1986, MHRD, New Delhi) stressed ‘Education must provide a
climate for the nurture of values both as a personalized set of values
forming one’s character and including necessarily social, cultural and
national values so as to have a context a meaning for actions and
decisions and in order to enable the persons to act with conviction and
commitment’. It was perhaps the deep concern for development of
values in the learners that made the Committee to title its report as
‘towards an enlightened and humane society’ and argue that ‘true
education must humanize the person’. In fact, values bring quality to
human life. Richards (2001 – Richards, G. ‘Gandhi’s Philosophy of
Education’, Oxford University Press) observed, ‘if we look at the views
of Gandhi in this regard, we find that he was also convinced that
education without ‘lofty conduct and morality’ is dangerous and that
‘society will only benefit from it, provided people, along with it,
acquired truthful conduct and moral life’. He suggested that while
education has to be vocationally oriented, at the same time, it should
also promote an understanding of the meaning of life. So, in Gandhi’s
view, the primary objective of education goes beyond the view of those
who insist that education should be pursued for its own sake, that it is
in itself inherently valuable or that its main aim should be to prepare
students for an occupation in life’.

Classroom Behaviour Patterns of Secondary School Science Teachers.

The teaching of Science in the Indian context, particularly at the school
level, has received the attention of the national level institutions like
the NCERT and the UGC on the one hand, and the faculties of
education of the universities and institutes of Advanced Study, on the
other. There is now a growing concern for improving the classroom
international settings by making a systematic study of the ebb and
flow of classroom events while the teacher is face-to-face with his/her
class.
Several systems of systematic observation have been reported
over the past three decades. The most popular ones used for studying
verbal behaviour of Teachers comprise Flanders’ Interaction Analysis
Categories (FIAC); Richard Ober’s Reciprocal Category System, Amidon
and Hunter’s Verbal interaction Category System (VICS) and Bentley
and Miller’s Equivalent Talk Categories (ETC). All these systems of
observation have been employed to specifically delineate the patterns
of verbal interactions and the nature of direct and indirect influence-
oriented behaviours, strategies and tactics used both by teachers and
students. Needless to mention that these systematic observation
procedures do not provide only a scientific information about the
prevalent interaction setting in the classroom but also contribute to the
improved sensitivities and behaviour patterns of teachers at the pre-
service and in-service levels (Amita Pandy Bhardwaj, ‘Interactive
Classroom Behaviour Patterns of Secondary School Science Teachers’,
Anweshika Indian Jouranl of Teacher Education’, NCTE, New Delhi,
Vol.1, Nov.2, Dec.2004).
Teachers are classed the ‘torch bearers’ of any society. The
success of any education depends on the quality of the teacher which
in turn, depends on the effective teaching in its true sense is not mere
9
instruction, but an attempt to influence the behaviour of pupil (Jayanthi
& Reena Agarwal, 2006).
Behaviour of the Teacher in general and in the classroom in
particular has a great bearing on the development and shaping of the
behaviour of the students and in their participation in the teaching-
learning process. Teacher behaviour has two components: verbal as
well as non-verbal. Verbal classroom behaviour of the teacher
formulates the socio-emotional and intellectual climate of the
classroom. According to Ober (1971) ‘a positive socio-emotional
classroom climate is one in which the student feels’ comfortable and is
motivate to learn’. The instructional agent (teacher) manipulates and
controls the learning stimuli in way that results in maximum student
learning. The socio-emotional climate of the classroom should be
positive since the role of the classroom climate is crucial for effective
teaching-learning process. The teaching behaviour of the teachers is
guided by their values. Values generate strong behavioural
tendencies. They are the fundamental dimensions of human life and
indicate how one adheres, attaches and reacts in life situations.
Nazder (1975) speaks of value as being the strongest or ultimate
motivational factor in person’s behaviour. Values are like ingredients
and behaviour is like cake. As the ingredients govern the quality of the
cake, so one’s cherished values decide one’s behavioural pattern.
Most of the studies conducted in India on teacher’s values have
focused on how different types of teachers’ personal values are related
to Teacher Motivation (Rescher, 1969; Koul, 1972; Singh, 1978; Mutha,
1980; Kumar, 1985; Singh, 1987; Shah, 1995 and Gupta, 2001). Some
of these studies have reported conflicting results with respect to social,
economic and political values (Jayanthi & Reena Agarwal, ‘Relationship
10
between Teachers’ Values and Socio-emotional Climate of the
Classroom’, Journal of Indian Education, NCERT, Volume XXXII, Number
–2, August, 2006).
Dimensions of Teacher Value Behaviour:
In the present study the Dimensions of Teacher Value Behaviour
identified as an important measuring sources. They are – (1) Work
aspect, (2) Learner aspect, (3) Professional aspect, (4) Adjustment
aspect – and (5) Emotional aspect.
(1) Work aspect:
The work aspect includes his concern, commitment his sincerity,
his regularity, his obedience, sympathy etc., are included.
(2) Learner aspect:
This aspect discloses that appreciate the learner, identifying the
right thinking, development of honesty and cooperation, patience
towards learner are included.
(3) Professional aspect:
This aspect envisages that respect towards elders and officers;
Professional discipline, transparency and responsibility are discussed.
(4) Adjustment aspect:
The aspect Adjustment refers to relations with colleagues,
environment, sharing the feelings, equality issues are incorporated and
studied.
(5) Emotional aspect:
The Emotional aspect is designed with optimism, satisfactory,
happiness, respect, patriotism etc., are studied.
The above discussions and areas are identified as the important
sources of Teacher Value Behaviour and presentation is a pictorial form

motivated, just not motivated in the same direction as you and me.
The question, then, is not usually whether someone is motivated, but
what are they motivated by?
What we know is that motivation is the result of the interaction of
the individual and situation. Certainly, individuals differ in their basic
motivational drive. But the same student who finds it difficult to read a
textbook for more than 20 minutes may devour a Harry Potter book in
one day. For this student, the change in motivation is driven by the
situation. So as we analyze the concept of motivation, keep in mind
that the level of motivation varies both between individuals and within
individuals at different times.
Motivation defined as the processes that account for an
individual’s intensity, direction, and persistence of effort toward
attaining a goal. (T.R.Mitchell, ‘Matching Motivational Strategies with
Organizational Contexts’, in L.L.Cummings and B.M. Straw (eds.),
Research in Organizational Behaviour, Vol.19, Greenwich, CT:JAI Press,
1997, pp.60-62.) While general motivation is concerned with effort
toward any goal, the narrow focus to organizational goals in order to
reflect our singular interest in work-related behaviour.
The three key elements in our definition are intensity, direction,
and persistence. Intensity is concerned with how hard a person tries.
This is the element most of us focus on when we talk about motivation.
However, high intensity is unlikely to lead to favourable job-
performance outcomes unless the effort is channeled in a direction
that benefits the organization. Therefore, it is to be considered that
the quality of effort as well as its intensity. Effort that is directed
toward, and consistent with, the organization’s goal is the kind of effort
that should be seeking. Finally, motivation has a persistence
13
dimension. This is a measure of how long a person can maintain effort.
Motivated individuals stay with a task long enough to achieve their
goal.
Hierarchy of Needs Theory:
It’s probably safe to say that the most well known theory of
motivation is Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs. He hypothesized
that within every human being there exists a hierarchy of five needs.
These needs are:
1.Physiological: Includes hunger, thirst, shelter, sex, and other
bodily needs.
2.Safety: Includes security and protection from physical and
emotional harm.
3.Social: Includes affection, belongingness, acceptance and
friendship
4.Esteem: Includes internal esteem factors such as self-respect,
autonomy, and achievement; and external esteem factors such as
status, recognition, and attention – and
5.Self-actualization: The drive to become what one is capable of
becoming; includes growth, achieving one’s potential, and self-
fulfillment.
(A.Maslow, ‘Motivation and Personality’, New York, Harper & Row,
1954).
As each of these needs becomes substantially satisfied, the next
need becomes dominant. In terms of Exhibit 6-1, the individual moves
up the steps of the hierarchy. From the standpoint of motivation, the
theory would say that although no need is ever fully gratified, a
substantially satisfied need no longer motivates. So, if you want to
motivate someone, according to Maslow, you need to understand what
14
level of the hierarchy that person is currently on and focus on
satisfying the needs at or above that level.
Maslow separated the five needs into higher and lower orders.
Physiological and safety needs were described as Lower-order needs
and social, esteem, and self-actualization as higher-order needs. The
differentiation between the two orders was made on the premise that
higher-order needs are satisfied internally (within person), whereas
lower-order needs are predominantly satisfied externally (by things
such as pay, union contracts, and tenure).
Douglas McGregor has proposed two distinct views of human
beings as ‘XY’ theories. Theory ‘X’ discloses the assumption that
employees dislike work, are lazy, dislike responsibility, and must be
coerced to perform. Whereas Theory ‘Y’ shows the assumption that
employees like work, are creative, seek responsibility, and can exercise
self-direction (D.McGregor, ‘The Human Side of Enterprise’, 1960).
Frederick Herzberg has proposed the ‘Two Factor Theory’ or
‘Motivation-hygiene Theory’. In the belief that an individual’s relation
to work is basic and that one’s attitude toward work can very well
determine success or failure, Herzberg investigated the question,
‘What do people want from their jobs?’ He asked people to describe, in
detail, situations in which they felt exceptionally good or bad about
their jobs. These responses were then tabulated and categorized.
From the categorized responses, Herberg concluded that the replies
people gave when they felt good about their jobs were significantly
different from the replies given when they felt bad (F.Herzberg,
B.Mausner and B.Snyderman, ‘The Motivation to Work’, New York:
Wiley, 1959).
David McClelland and his associates have proposed on three
15
needs of achievements, power and affiliation. The need for
achievement drive is to excel, to achieve in relation to a set of
standards, to strive to succeed. The need for power is to make others
behave in a way that they would not have behaved otherwise. And the
need for affiliation is for friendly and close interpersonal relationships.
(McClelland, D.C., ‘The Achieving Society’, Van Nostrand Reinhold,
1961).
The desire for interesting work seems important to almost all
workers, regardless of their national culture. In a study of seven
countries, employees in Belgium, Britain, Israel, and the United States
ranked “interesting work” number one among 11 work goals. This
factor was ranked either second or third in Japan, the Netherlands, and
Germany (I.Harpaz, ‘The importance of Work Goals: An International
Perspective’, Journal of International Business Studies, First Quarter,
1990, pp.75-93).
According to Benedict, C. (2004) that though many individuals
recall bullies from their elementary school days, some are realizing
that bullies can exist in the workplace as well. And these bullies do not
just pick on the weakest in the group; rather, any subordinate in their
path may fall prey to their torment, according to Dr.Gary Namie,
Director of the Workplace Bullying and Trauma Institute. Dr.Namie
further says workplace bullies are not limited to men – women are at
least as likely to be bullies. However, gender discrepancies are found
in victims of bullying, as women are more likely to be targets.
Teacher Motivation:
The background of pupils coming from different socio-economic
groups will have different academic or intellectual situations.
Therefore, the pupils will not be able to grasp or have difficult in
16
comprehending due to their different backgrounds. The teacher will
also have to face two sets of parents one the enlightened and
educated the other uneducated. To attain the objectives set forth for a
common school – that of social integration – the teacher shall have to
be aware of that objective all the while that he is carrying out the
school – study program.
While dealing with the problem of the disparities in society, the
teacher shall have to put the problem in an objective and academic
manner without passion or prejudice. The teacher and the school shall
have to provide certain facilities, which are otherwise available only to
the rich in form of library – teaching facilities, study equipment etc.
Some children, though intelligent because of their background,
may not keep pace equally with other well-placed children. For them,
the teacher or the school should be able to provide special help. The
teacher or the school shall have to be vigil and with regard to the
children not developing either superiority or inferiority complex due to
their social position in life or society. Therefore, the school or the
teacher shall have to meet the common needs of all pupils equally with
regard to the studies, playing facilities, tours etc.
Are these common schools going to have different streams? It is
very necessary to have diversified courses provided in schools for
students with varying interests, aptitudes and ability. Common schools
without diversified courses will have a great discipline problem.
Therefore, guidance facilities will be a must for a common school. The
teacher in the common school shall have to develop efficient
techniques of providing horizontal and vertical academic courses or
studies for the different levels of students. The teacher’s role
therefore, will be not only to understand the different pupils having
17
different socio-economic and cultural background but also to provide
them with methods, approaches and studies or educational programs
to motivate them.
The teachers, to maintain a required academic and efficient
educational standard, will have to be more alert and efficient.
Otherwise, the common school idea is bound to lower the already low
standards of attainments. Teacher’s associations with the government
should establish refresher courses and facilities for upgrading the
teacher’s efficiency as well providing them with means to make their
profession efficient.
A school classroom is normally a part of the larger organization of
the formal school system. The participants in the school system
recognize it as the place where the formal education takes place. The
teacher in the classroom is normally an adult who is expected to
teacher and influences the young pupils.
The teacher in the classroom is an adult and superior to the
pupils in knowledge. His task is to create and maintain among the
pupils a will to learn and to maintain discipline in the classroom. In
democratic and open societies where knowledge is regarded as ever
expanding and open to who so ever shows ability, the classroom
authority of the teacher over the pupils may take on more persuasive
forms.
The teacher has to use his authority in the classroom in two
situations. They are – (1) When the pupils behave in a way that
disturbs the peace and discipline of the class – and (2) When they fail
to show good work, commit mistakes or fail to submit a given
homework. In both these situations a very large majority of the
respondents in all the groups expect the teacher to adopt only
18
persuasive methods. They want them to try to understand
sympathetically the factors behind such behaviour of the pupils and to
quickly explain them their fault. A few of them expected to use such
different punishments as ‘making them stand in the class’, prohibit
them from attending class for a few days’, ‘going them some
imposition’ or ‘scolding them in the class’ and a very few other expect
them to use physical punishments such as a ‘slapping or canning’,
‘compelling them to keel down and hold toes of the feet’ etc. However,
these few respondents are do not mention these stricter forms of
punishments exclusively but only as additional ones to the persuasive
method.
Dimensions of Teacher Motivation:
The Teacher Motivation consists of nine areas viz., (1) Classroom
Teaching; (2) School Administration; (3) Professional Pleasure; (4)
Climate Factors; (5) Inter-personal relations; (6) Student Behaviour; (7)
Working Conditions; (8) Professional Development and (9) Personal
(1) Classroom Teaching: In this aspect the teaching performance of
the faculty members as well as their teacher activities and teaching
ability in the Classroom teaching are included.
(2) School Administration: This aspect disclosed the management of
the institution, implementation of policies of the administrators,
participation in the administrative activities of the institution are
included.
(3) Professional Pleasure: This aspect envisages the pleasure of
the teacher while teaching in the classroom, love of profession,
receiving appreciations from the students, guiding the students in the
right way, creation of inspiration among students etc., are discussed
with reference to the existing conditions as prevailed in the
19
institutions.
(4) Climate Factors: This aspect envisages regarding the facilities
that influence the Teachers and Students to perform more effective
and the basis how to achieve the goals successfully.
(5) Inter-Personal Relations: In aspect institutional relations with
the Parents, Students, Administrators and other aspects in relation to
academic aspects are included.
(6) Student Behaviour: This aspect disclosed the behavioural
attitude in relation to their shrewdness, discipline, participation in the
school activities, expression of their opinions are discussed.
(7) Working Conditions: In this aspect the teacher satisfaction in
relation to remuneration, acceptances of the teacher to reside in the
work area, planning of professional development are included.
(8) Professional Development: This is one of the most important
aspects of the present study of Teacher Motivation. In this aspect In-
service Training, possessing higher qualifications, implementation of
innovative practices in teaching and implementation of new
experiment methods of teaching are included.
(9) Personal: This aspect is confined to teacher’s personal
experiences in relation to his family, Classroom teaching, assessment
of student abilities, power of mind set adjustment while entering into
the classroom are discussed.
The above discussion on Teacher Motivation is presented in
Figure-2 which clearly shown to understand the inter-relations between
the dimensions of the study.

Self-Efficacy:
The cognitive approach has been accused of being mentalistic,
and the behavioristic approach has been accused of being
deterministic. Cognitive theorists argue that the stimulus response (S-
R) model, and to a lesser degree the response-stimulus (R-S) model, is
much too mechanistic an explanation of human behaviour. A strict S-R
interpretation of behaviour seems justifiably open to the criticism of
being too mechanistic, but because of the scientific approach that to
the criticism of being too mechanistic, but because of the scientific
approach that has been meticulously employed by behaviourists, the
operant model in particular has been made a tremendous contribution
to the study and meaning of human behaviour. (Richard, J.DeGrandpre,
2000).
Bandura explains that ‘it is largely through their actions that
people produce the environmental conditions that affect their
behaviour in a reciprocal fashion. The experiences generated by
behaviour also partly determine what a person becomes and can do,
21
which, in turn, affects subsequent behaviour. (Albert Bandura, 1976).
Bandura has taken his social learning and developed it into the more
comprehensive Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) have translated this into
the theoretical foundation for organizational behaviour. SCT is much
more comprehensive than the cognitive or behavioristic approaches by
themselves and its predecessor, social learning theory. Specifically,
SCT recognizes the importance of bheaviorism’s contingent
environmental consequences, but also includes cognitive processes of
self-regulation. ‘The social part acknowledges the social origins of
much of human thought and action (what individuals learn by being
part of a society), whereas the cognitive portion recognizes the
influential contribution of thought processes to human motivation,
attitudes and action’. (Ibid., p.63).
Self-Efficacy - Theoretical Background and Meaning:
According to Albert Bandura (1976), the Social Cognitive Theory
(STC) incorporates both social/environmental and cognitive elements
and the behaviours themselves. SCT explains psychological
functioning in terms of environmental events; internal personal factors
in the form of cognitive, affective, and biological variables; and
behavioural patterns. These three (environment, personal cognitions
and behaviour) operate as interacting determinants that influence one
another bi-directional. Embedded within SCT, along with the human’s
capabilities of symbolizing, forethought, and observational learning, is
a self-theory including both self-regulation and self-reflection. It is the
capability for self-reflection – people reflect back on their
actions/experience with a specific event/task to then cognitively
process how strongly they believe they can successfully accomplish
this event/task in the future – that serves as the theoretical basis for
22
self-efficacy. (Albert Bandura, ‘Self-Efficacy : The Exercise of Control,
1999 – Ref.110 of Ch.9).
Bandura (2000) strongly emphasizes that this self-efficacy is the
most pervading and important of the psychological mechanisms of self-
influence. He declares ‘unless people believe that they can produce
desired effects and forestall undesired ones by their actions, they have
little incentive to act. Whatever other factors may operate as
motivators, they are rooted in the core belief that one has the power to
produce desired results. (Albert Bandura, ‘Cultivate Self-Efficacy for
Personal and Organizational Effectiveness’, 2000 – Ref.111 of Ch.9).
The formal definition of self-efficacy that is usually used is
Bandura’s (1982) early statement of personal judgment or belief of
‘how well one can execute courses of action required to deal with
prospective situations. (Albert Bandura, ‘Self-Efficacy Mechanism in
Human Agency’, Ref.112, Chp.9).
A somewhat broader, more workable definition for organizational
behaviour is provided by Stajkovic and Luthans (1998) : ‘Self-Efficacy
refers to an individual’s conviction for (or confidence) about his or her
abilities to mobilize the motivation, cognitive resources, and courses of
action needed to successfully execute a specific task within a given
context. (Alexander D.Stajkovic and Fred Luthans ‘Social Cognitive
Theory and Self-Efficacy’ 1998, Ref.113 :Chp.9). Notice that this
definition deals with efficacy on a specific task and context. To further
clarify the exact meaning of self-efficacy as it is translated here for use
in the organizational behaviour field, specific versus general efficacy
needs to be clarified. Earlier the differentiation between the various
positive psychology constructs was briefly discussed, but the
difference between self-efficacy and closely related established
23
organizational behaviour constructs such as self-esteem, expectancy
motivation, and attribution/locus of control also needs to be addressed.
Specific versus General Self-Efficacy:
Specific self-efficacy follows Bandura’s conceptualization and is
widely recognized by almost all efficacy scholars and the psychology
field as a whole. (Alexander D.Stajkovic and Fred Luthans, ‘Self-Efficacy
and Work-Related Performance’, 1998,Ref.114, Chap.9).
In recent years, however, general self-efficacy has been used as
another dimension of self-efficacy by a few efficacy researchers. They
suggest that in addition to specific self-efficacy, there is a generalized
self-efficacy that reflects people’s belief in successfully accomplishing
tasks across a wide variety of achievement situations. It should be
recognized that this generalized efficacy is quite different from
Bandura’s portrayal of self-efficacy. In particular, the accepted task
specific version of self-efficacy is a state like; it is highly variable
depending on the specific task and is cognitively processed by the
individual before any effort is expended. (D.Eden and Y.Zuk (1995),
‘Raising Self-Efficacy to Boost Performance at Sea’ in Seasickness as a
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy, 1995, Ref.115, Chap.9).
Bandura (1991) argues that self-efficacy represents a task and
situation specific cognition. On the other hand, general self-efficacy is
conceptually the opposite; it is trait-like. That is, general efficacy is
stable over time and across situations; in this regard it is like a
personality trait. Bandura contends with his years of theory building
and basic research that ‘an efficacy belief is not a decontextualized
trait. (Bandura, Self-Efficacy : The Exercise of Control, 1991, Ref.116;
117, 118 of Chap.9).
However, Bandura and others point out that even though self-
24
efficacy is not trait-like, this does not mean that specific self-efficacy
evaluations never generalize. Instead, although not necessarily stable
across situations, efficacy judgments on one task may generalize to
others depending on the situation, the task, and the person.
(D.Cervone, ‘Social Cognitive Mechanism and Personality Coherence’,
1997, Ref:119 of Chap.9).
Sources of Self-Efficacy:
At first glance self-efficacy appears very similar and is often
confused with widely recognized organization behaviour concepts, in
particular Self-esteem, Expectancy Motivation and Attribution/locus of
control. Although the differences outlined above may seem quite
technical, they must be pointed out to make sure self-efficacy is indeed
a valid, independent construct and help clarify its exact meaning. In
other words, from the preceding it can be seen that self-efficacy can
directly affect – Choice behaviours (decisions will be made based on
how efficacious the person feels towards the options in, say, work
assignments or even a career field), Motivational efforts (people will try
harder and give more effort on tasks where they have high self-efficacy
than those where the efficacy judgment is low), Perseverance (those
with high self-efficacy will bounce back, be resilient when meeting
problems or even failure, whereas those with low self-efficacy tend to
give up when obstacles appear), Facilitative thought patterns (efficacy
judgments influence self-tasks such as those with high self-efficacy
might say to themselves, ‘I know I can figure out how to solve this
problem’, whereas those with low self-efficacy might say to
themselves, ‘I knew I couldn’t do this, I don’t have this kind of ability’),
and Vulnerability to Stress (those with low self-efficacy tend to
experience stress and burnout because they expect failure, whereas
25
those with high self-efficacy enter into potential stressful situations
with confidence and assurance and thus are able to resist-stressful
reactions).
These examples of the direct impact of self-efficacy on human
functioning are right in line with high-performing individuals. Perhaps
the best profile of a high performer on a given task would be the highly
efficacious individual who really gets into the task gives whatever
effort it takes to successfully accomplish the task; perseveres when
meeting obstacles, frustrations, or setbacks; has positive self-thoughts
and talks; and is resistant to stress and burnout.
As it this high-performance profile is not enough, Bandura (1998)
emphasizes that self-efficacy also plays a vital role in other important
human performance determinants such as goal aspirations, the
incentives in outcome expectations, and the perceived opportunities of
a given project. (Bandura, ‘Cultivate Self-Efficacy for Personal and
Organizational Effectiveness, op.cit., 120-121, chap.9/125). What level
of goal is selected, how much effort is expended to reach the selected
goal, and how one reacts/perseveres when problems are encountered
in progressing toward the goal, all seem to be greatly affected by self-
efficacy.
Dimensions of Self-Efficacy:
1.Mastery experiences: This is potentially the most powerful for
forming efficacy beliefs because it is direct information about success.
The performance accomplishments do not directly equate with self-
efficacy. Both situational (e.g., the complexity of the task) and
cognitive processing (e.g., the perception of one’s ability) concerning
the performance will affect the self-efficacy judgment and belief.
2.Vicarious experiences or Modeling: Just as individuals do not
26
need to directly experience reinforced personal behaviours in order to
learn (they can vicariously learn by observing and modeling relevant
others who are reinforced), the same is true of acquiring efficacy
(Bandura, 2000).
3.Social Persuasion: Not as powerful a source of information as the
previous two and sometimes oversimplified as a ‘can-do’ approach,
people’s belief in their efficacy can be strengthened by respected,
competent others persuading them that they have what it tasks on this
particular task.
4.Physiological and Psychological arousal: People often rely on
how they feel, physically and emotionally, in order to assess their
capabilities. More than the other sources of information, if these are
negative this will generally greatly detract from efficacy. If these
physical and mental states are well off, they don’t necessarily process
as contributing much to the individual’s efficacy.
Because Bandura has provided such a comprehensive, rich
theoretical understanding backed by years of research, there is
common agreement on the principle sources of self-efficacy.

beyond this domain of clinical behaviour change to be successfully
applied in areas such as (1) the promotion of health and recovery from
physical setbacks, (2) the control of eating, (3) resistance to addictive
substances, (4) educational achievement, (5) athletic performance,
and, importantly (6) for the study and application of organizational
behaviour and performance in working settings. (Daniel Cervone,
‘Thinking About Self-Efficacy’, 2000 – Chap.9/ 135).
As noted earlier, whereas the other positive psychology
constructs have to date relatively few research studies in the
workplace, self-efficacy has a very well established body of knowledge
as to its applicability and positive impact on work-related performance.
Specifically, our (Stajkovie and Luthans) meta-analysis included 114
studies and 21,616 subjects. (Ibid, p.252 – Chap.9/136).
The results indicated a highly significant. 38 weighted average
correlation between self-efficacy and work-related performance. When
converted to the commonly used affect size estimate used in meta-
analysis, the transformed value represents a 28 percent increase in
performance due to self-efficacy. By comparison, these results for self-
efficacy in the workplace represent a greater average gain in
performance than the results from the meta-analysis of other popular
organizational behaviour interventions such as goal setting (10.39%),
feedback (13.6%), or organizational behaviour modification (17%), and
also seems to be a better predictor of work-related performance than
the personality traits (e.g., the ‘Big Five’) or relevant attitudes (e.g., job
satisfaction or organizational commitment) commonly used in
organizational behaviour research. (Chap.9/138, 139, 140, 141).
Although the workplace is given considerable attention in
Bandura’s 1997 book, Self-Efficacy, more recently he provided a
31
focused review of the growing research literature of the direct and
indirect impact that self-efficacy has on work-related personal and
organizational effectiveness. This research review of the impact of
self-efficacy includes a wide range of organizational behaviour topics
such as career choice and development, new employee training, work
design/job enrichment, supportive communication, teams (i.e.,
collective efficacy), innovation, entrepreneurship, leadership and
stress. He then devotes considerable attention to the strategies and
principles for developing and strengthening beliefs of personal efficacy
in the work place. (Bandura, op.cit.)
From this considerable body of theory and research on self-
efficacy, the following offer some practical implications and specific
guidelines for the more effective practice of managing human
performance in today and tomorrow’s organizations.
Selection of Human Resources:
In hiring for a particular job, making an assignment to a specific
project, or promoting someone into an identifiable area of
responsibility, assessing the person’s present magnitude and strength
of self-efficacy could be valuable input into the selection decision.
Magnitude measures the level of task difficulty that a person believes
he or she is capable of executing and strength indicates whether the
magnitude is strong and likely to produce perseverance when
difficulties are encountered.
Although most applicable to specific tasks within a job
assignment or promotion, self-efficacy scales could be set up for each
of the major tasks or for the overall domain of a given job. This scale
would include, in ascending order, items that represent the increasing
levels of difficulty. The respondent would check for each item yes or no
32
(magnitude) and then next to it 0 – 100% probability of attainment
(i.e., strength). Getting a total of the probability strengths for each
item with a yes derives the efficacy scores. This so called Composite I
method of scoring has been shown to be a valid measure of self-
efficacy and more reliable than other measures. (C.Lee and P.Bobko,
‘Self-Efficacy Beliefs: Comparison of Five Measures’, 1994,
Chap.9/145).
If regular questionnaire item scales are developed, they should
be tailor-made for each specific selection purpose. Bandura advises
that the content of such scales ‘must represent beliefs about personal
abilities to produce specified levels of performance and must not
include other characteristics (Bandura, op.cit.45, Chap.9.146). Of
course, people should not be selected based only on their present self-
efficacy assessment, but because it has been found to be such a good
predictor of performance, self-efficacy could make a significant
contribution to the selection process. This assessment could also be
used as training and development needs analysis.
Training and Development:
Bandura recently categorized his approach to training and
development into three areas. First is what he calls guided mastery,
which includes instructive modeling to acquire a skill or competency,
guided skill perfection, and then transferring the training back to the
job to insure self-directed success. Second, is for the more complex,
but increasingly common for all levels in the modern workplace, ways
to enhance efficacy for decision making and problem solving. He calls
this cognitive mastery modeling to learn thinking skills and how to
apply them by observing the decision rules and reasoning strategies
successful models use as they arrive at solutions to problems and
33
make effective decisions. (Bandura, ‘Cultivate Self-Efficacy for Personal
and Organizational Effectiveness’, op.cit. pp126, 133).
Bandura finally suggests the development of self-regulatory
competencies. The development of this increasingly important self-
management involves a variety of interlinked self-referent processes
such as self-monitoring, self-efficacy appraisal, personal goal setting,
and use of self-motivating incentives. Whether using the more
pragmatic training aimed at enhancing the four sources discussed
earlier or these more sophisticated approaches suggested by Bandura,
there is proven effectiveness of this training and development of self-
efficacy, and the potential for the future seems unlimited. (Bandura,
‘Cultivating Self-Efficacy for Personal and Organizational Effectiveness’,
op.cit.p.132 – Chap.9/149).
That the principle here be stated that ‘the higher employees’ self-
efficacy on a specific task, the better they will perform’. The earlier
studies disclosed (114 studies; 21,616 participants d = .82) that on
average, there is a 72 percent probability that employees with high
self-efficacy on a specific task will have better performance than those
with low self-efficacy. The moderators found in the meta-analysis were
task complexity and the setting for the study. Specifically, it was found
that the more complex the task, the less, but still highly significant,
impact self-efficacy will have on performance. Also, self-efficacy had a
bigger impact in the studies conducted in laboratory settings than
those in the field.
Thus, the Self-efficacy has become one of the very best
predictors of human performance. In today’s work environment
characterized by uncertainty change, and complex undertakings,
organizations will be challenged to do their part in increasing
34
employees’ beliefs in their personal competence so that organizational
performance can be realized.
Teacher Self-Efficacy in the Global Scenario:
Teachers' sense of efficacy can potentially influence both the kind
of environment that they create as well as the various instructional
practices introduced in the classroom (Bandura, 1997). Furthermore,
teachers with a high sense of self-efficacy are confident that even the
most difficult students can be reached if they exert extra effort;
teachers with lower self-efficacy, on the other hand, feel a sense of
helplessness when it comes to dealing with difficult and unmotivated
students (Gibson & Dembo, 1984). The literature widely documents the
pervasive influence of self-efficacy beliefs and corroborates social
cognitive theory that places these beliefs at the roots of human agency
(Bandura, 2001).
There are two major dimensions of teachers' perceived efficacy
discussed in literature on teacher's sense of efficacy: Personal Teaching
Efficacy (PTE) and General Teaching Efficacy (GTE) (Coladarci, 1992;
Soodak & Podell, 1997; Woolfolk & Hoy, 1990; Tschannen-Moran &
Wookfolk Hoy, 2001). Personal Teaching Efficacy refers to teachers'
beliefs about their own ability to make a difference in their students'
learning, whereas General Teaching Efficacy comprises teachers'
beliefs about the power of factors outside of the school and teacher's
control in affecting student performance. Both GTE and PTE were the
two items measured in the earliest teachers' efficacy studies headed
by Rand Corporation (Armor et al., 1976; Berman et al., 1977), which
asked teachers to rate their responses to two statements based on a
five-point Likert scale:
(a) "When it comes right down to it, a teacher really can't do much
35
because most of a student's motivation and performance depends on
his or her home environment," (GTE)
(b) "If I try really hard, I can get through to even the most difficult or
unmotivated students" (PTE).
On the other hand, other researchers have treated teacher
efficacy as a one-dimensional construct (Evans & Tribble, 1986;
Guskey, 1988). Yet another group of researchers have argued that
teacher efficacy is multidimensional and should be examined
differently according to specific situations and tasks (Tschannen-Moran
& Woolfolk Hoy, 2001; Tschannen-Moran, Wookfolk Hoy & Hoy, 1998).
Relation between Teachers’ Efficacy and Other Factors:
Teacher efficacy has been linked to several personal and
contextual variables, important teacher behaviors, and student
outcomes. Guskey (1988) and Ghaith and Yaghi's (1997a) studies
examined, among other things, how teachers' sense of efficacy affects
their attitudes toward implementing instructional innovation. Guskey's
(1988) study involved 120 elementary and secondary school teachers
who attended a staff development program which focused on mastery
learning of instructional strategies and instructional innovations for the
study's participants. The questionnaire used in the study consisted of
four sections that combined a variety of scales. The results of the study
showed that teachers who regarded instructional innovation practices
(mastery of learning strategies) as congruent with their present
teaching practices rated them as easier to implement. Similarly, those
who deemed instructional innovations as very different from their
current teaching methods rated them as more difficult to implement
and therefore less important.
The relation among teachers' teaching experience, efficacy, and
36
attitudes toward the implementation of instructional innovations was
also explored by Ghaith and Yaghi (1997a). The 25 teachers in their
study responded to three questionnaires after a staff development
program using the program, Student Teams Achievement Divisions
(STAD), as a cooperative learning instructional innovation. In addition
to answering a demographic background questionnaire and the same
measure used by Guskey (1988) to assess teachers' attitudes toward
instructional innovation, the study used a shortened version of Gibson
and Dembo's (1984) teacher efficacy scale, which contained 16 items.
Ghaith and Yaghi (1997a) found that with more years of teaching
experience, teachers tended to view STAD as being more difficult and
less important to implement. Further, more experienced teachers also
felt that their ability to bring about positive changes in students'
learning is limited by factors beyond school control. Another finding of
this study was that teachers with a higher sense of personal teaching
efficacy saw STAD as more congruent with their present teaching
practices, less difficult and more important to implement.
Using the 16-item version of the Gibson and Dembo (1984)
teacher efficacy scale, Soodak and Poodell (1997) looked at how
teaching experience influenced teacher efficacy among 626
elementary and secondary pre-service and practicing teachers in the
greater New York metropolitan area. The main finding from this study
was that for the elementary teachers, personal teaching efficacy was
initially high during the pre-service teaching years but in the first year
of teaching, this sense of personal efficacy fell dramatically. However,
with more years of teaching experience, their personal efficacy
gradually increased but their sense of their own effectiveness never
reached the same levels achieved by secondary-level teachers. On the
37
other hand, the secondary teachers in this study were more
homogeneous and stable in their personal efficacy beliefs.
The earlier global studies confined categorically with regard to
Teacher General efficacy and Personal efficacy. These two dimensions
of teachers’ perceived efficacy discussed on teachers’ sense of efficacy
viz., Personal Teaching Efficacy (PTE) and General Teaching Efficacy
(GTE) – (Coladarci, 1992, Soodak & Podell, 1997; Woolfolk & Joy, 1990;
Tschannen-Moran & Woolfolk & Hoy, 2001).
The above studies are accepting that Personal Teaching Self-
efficacy refers to teachers’ beliefs abut their own ability to make a
difference in their students’ learning, whereas General Teaching self-
efficacy comprises teacher’s beliefs about the power of factors outside
of the school and teacher’s control in affecting student performance.
Keeping the above research observations, the present
investigator is in view that teacher self-efficacy is associated with
teacher ideas, beliefs, thoughts and its contributions on teachers’
actions, product and performance.
Further, it is inconcurrence with the teacher’s thought and action
theory of Clerk and Peterson (1986). Hence, the researcher presenting
the Clerk and Peterson’s Theory on Teacher Thought and Action with a
pictorial representation to substantiates the present theoretical
framework.
To substantiate how research on teacher thought processes
complements the larger body of research on teacher efficacy, Clark
and Peterson (1986) have developed, a model of teacher thought and
action, which is presented in the following figure. Of course they make
no claims for the empirical validity of this model but rather offer it as a
heuristic device.
38
The model depicts two domains that are importantly involved in
the process of teaching. A circle represents each domain. These
domains are (a) Teachers’ ‘thought Processes’, (b) Teachers’ actions
and their observable effects. These two domains differ in at least two
important ways. First, the domains differ in the extent to which the
processes involved are observable. Teachers’ thought processes occur
‘in-side teachers’ heads’ and thus are unobservable. In contrast,
teacher behaviour, student behaviour, and student achievement scores
constitute observable phenomena. Thus, the phenomena involved in
the teacher action domain are more easily measured and more easily
subjected to empirical research methods than are the phenomena
involved in the teachers’ thought domain. The domain of teachers’
thought processes presents challenging methodological problems for
the empirical researchers.
39
Teacher Thought Teachers’ Actions and
Processes their observable effects
40
there is a reciprocal relationship between these two domains.
Teachers’ actions are in a large part caused by teachers’ thought
processes, which in turn affect teachers’ actions. It is viewed that the
process of teaching will be fully understood only when the two domains
are brought together and examined in relation to one another. In this
present study teacher planning in the domain of teachers’ thought
processes and in the domain of teachers’ actions and their observable
effects have been taken into consideration.
Teacher Self-efficacy in relation to Indian scenario:
The quality of education depends much on the efficacy of the
teacher. Teacher in India is considered to be the hub of the teaching
learning process. So effective teaching learning process largely
depends on effective teachers. But it is not easy to ascertain
effectiveness and ineffectiveness of a teacher. The teacher in Indian
scenario is the point of contact between educational system and the
pupil. The impact of any educational programme or innovation on the
pupil operates only through the teacher. It is, therefore, quite accurate
to say that the institutional effectiveness depends directly on the
efficacy of the teachers i.e., teachers with good ideas and actions.
Thus, maximizing teacher-self efficacy will be the major goal in the
system of education.
Thus, this entire discussion is devoted to the theory, research and
application of Teacher Self-Efficacy. General Teaching and Personal
Teaching Efficacy combined as Teacher Self-efficacy basing on Indian
contexture. It is not out of place to state that the belief one has in his
or her abilities to mobilize the motivation, cognitive resources and
courses of action necessary to successfully execute a specific task
within a given contexture. However, Teacher Self-efficacy is a state not
41
a trait. Further, this state of experience of the Teacher is designed in
several parts viz., Mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social
experiences and physiological and psychological experiences. These
experiences are designed and discussed based on the environmental,
motivational behavioural and personal cognitive aspects in relation to
teacher and institution performance with reference to existing social
environments. These aspects are also discussed in order of
importance of Mastery, Vicarious, Social, Physiological and
Psychological experiences of the teacher. Each of these are used with
reference to the conditions of Teacher Thought and Institutional
environments, which are the major causes to enhance the quality in
Teacher Self-Efficacy. So as to obtain the effective practical
applications of self-efficacy, the present researcher discussed the
major variables of Teacher Self-Efficacy. In this study the researcher
considered only four major dimensions of Teacher Self-Efficacy and
discussed hereunder.
Dimensions of Teacher Self-Efficacy:
The Teacher Self-Efficacy is designed with four dimensions viz.,
Teacher Self-Efficacy – Mastery Experience, Teacher Self-Efficacy –
Model or Vicarious Experience, Teacher Self-Efficacy – Social
Experience.
Mastery Experience:
This envisaged that the Mastery Experience is a powerful and
pivotal role in forming efficacy beliefs because it is direct information
about success. However, it is emphasized that performance
accomplishments of a teacher do not directly equate with his self-
efficacy. Both situational (i.e., the complexity of the task) and
cognitive process (i.e., the perception of one’s ability) concerning to
42
performance will affect the self-efficacy judgment and belief. Thus, the
mastery experience gained through perseverant effort and ability to
learn from a strong and resilient sense of efficacy, but efficacy
character building of a teacher and thought, which in turn will be
formed by virtue of his/her practical acquaintance with the facts.
Model or Vicarious Experiences:
This disclosed that just as teachers do not need to directly
experience reinforced personal behaviour in order to learn. They can
vicariously learn by observing and modeling relevant others who are
reinforced already; the same is true of acquiring efficacy. Hence, it is
important to emphasize that the model teacher (i.e., in demographics
such as age, sex, physical characteristics and education as well as
status and professional experience etc.) with the more effectiveness
will depend on the observer’s efficacy processing. This vicarious
source of information is an important for those with little direct
experience (i.e., a new assignment) or experienced with less attitudes
and as a practical strategy is trying to enhance to some extent in the
formation of Self-efficacy of an in-service teacher.
Social Experience:
Teachers in their efficacy can be strengthened by respected,
competent others persuading them that they ‘have what it takes’ on
the particular task. On the other side of the coin, there is no question
of the powerful impact that unkind words and negative feed back have
in disabling the teacher and his confidence. Too often a small negative
comment or even non-verbal gesture made on teacher, which affect
the impact on his emotions and efficacy. Unfortunately, encouraging
the Teacher in positive feedback and pointing out their ability and
strength for successfully accomplishing a task does not seem to be
43
processed, some of his colleague teachers with as much impact as the
negative. However, by being genuine, providing objective information,
and then taking follow up actions to actually set up the Teacher for
success and not failure and this social experience is selected and
processed for building efficacy in the teacher. Moreover, such social
experience become more useful to fill the gaps in the profession when
the Teacher begin to struggle or doubts in him, while in classroom
teaching or in his profession than it is in trying to build his efficacy for
a new task.
Physiological and Psychological Experiences:
Of all the above dimensions discussed, teacher’s physiological
and psychological experiences are occupied prominent place to
measure the Teacher self-efficacy. Generally, teachers are often rely
how they feel, physically and emotionally, in order to assess their
capabilities. More than the other sources of information, if these are
negative (i.e., the Teacher is very tired person or not physically well or
particularly anxious/distressed or facing a lot of pressure), which will
generally detract from efficacy. On the other hand, if these physical
and mental states are well off, they need not process as contributing
much to the individual’s efficacy. On balance, however, if the teacher
is in excellent physical and mental state, this might be served as a
good point of departure to build efficacy other ways and might be even
in and of itself aroused a teacher’s efficacy on physical or
psychologically demanding tasks.
Importantly for organizational behaviour and human resources
management, each of these resources is highly malleable and
changeable. As discussed earlier clearly disclosed that the specific
self-efficacy is a state but not a trait. In other words, the state of
44
Teacher Self-Efficacy might be definitely enhanced by providing in-
service training to the teachers to achieve the targets more effectively
in teaching learning process. However, the teacher needs a strong
sense of efficacy before they will try to apply what they have in their
professional experiences. They will also trying to learn new things.
The belief of the Teacher in his ability to perform in his profession
makes them vulnerable to on-the-job conditions, which are not
supportive in his job career. It helps the teachers to survive rejection
and helps them to preserve in face of obstacles and setbacks.
Though the conceptual framework is systematic and sound in its
presentation, in reality, how far the Teacher Value Behaviour,
Motivation and Self-efficacy are correlated and inter-dependent, if so,
to what extent, and how far inter and intra relations between the
dimensions of these aspects are the immediate queries to solve the
problem. The following figure disclosed the relationship between the
three aspects.

Thus the investigator is probing into the problem in detail. To
substantiate the present problem, the researcher reviewed and
presented the available literature relating to Teacher Value Behaviour,
Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-Efficacy in the following chapter.
47
and Abroad in the following pages.
Kerlinger (1973, III Survey of Educational Research) give two main
reasons for discussing the general and research literature related to
the research problem. The first of this is to clarify the theoretical
rationale of the problem. The second reason is to locate the present
research in the existing body of research on the subject and to point
out what it contributes to the subject.
The major purpose of this review of the available literature is to
determine the significant facts, which are essentially related to the
problem under investigation. For the knowledge emerging from the
investigation would enable the investigator to avoid unintentional
duplication, as well as to provide to understand and insight for the
development of logical framework for the present problem under
investigation. Moreover, studies that have been done would help in
formulating research hypothesis and indicating ‘what needs to be done
will form the basis for the justification of the study under investigation’.
The purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive and clear
picture of the related studies and to show how the present study
contributes in extending the knowledge in the attempted area under
study.
VALUE BEHAVIOUR:
Studies in India:
Anbarasu, M. (1992) studied 'Value orientation in English
Language Textbooks of Upper Primary Schools' (M.Phi., Edn., Alagappa
University, - V Survey of Educational Research).
The Indian adaptation of the Allport Vernon and Lindzey Study of
Values and an Indian tool called PVQ, by Sherry and Verma, were used
to find the value patterns of students. Misra, K.S. (1978), Kumar, S.K.
48
(1978), and Pandey, M.M. (1980) found that high-creative students
possessed values related to social service, independence, variety,
knowledge and aesthetics. Singh, A.(1977), and Singh, C (1978)
reported that economic values were more prominent in high creative,
whereas Paramesh, C.R. (1970), and Misra, K.S. (1978) reported that
economic value was more prominent in the average and the low
creatives. The theoretical values were more prominent in high
creatives as reported by Kumar, S.K. (1978), but Singh, C. (1978)
counter-reported that economic value was more prominent in the
average and the low creatives. The theoretical values were more
prominent in high creatives as reported by Kumar, S.K. (1978), but
Singh, C. (1978) counter-reported that these are found to be more
prominent among low creatives. Among the low creatives, the power
value was more dominant (Misra, K.S., 1978). On the other hand,
Singh, L. and Gupta, G. (1977) found no relationship between the
traditional values and creativity. While Pandey M.M. (1980) reported
that creative and non-creative pupil teachers did not differ significantly
with respect to value patterns. (V Survey of Educational Research)
Balasubramanian (1995 - VI Survey of Educational Research)
analyzed teaching behaviour of Class XI English teachers and its effect
on pupils' achievement in English.

"Value education is a planned educational programme aimed at the
51
development of values in students. It encounters with the total
personality of the individual student keeping in view all aspects of
human personality development--the intellectual, emotional and social.
It makes an individual a good child, parent, adult and citizen, and
keeps the people and society intact.

Prospective Teachers’ (Murugudu Srihari. New Delhi, Discovery
Publishing House, 2007, x, 124 p., tables, $18. ISBN 81-8356-328-7.)
This study disclosed that Values are seen in the external
behaviour of human beings. They are the internal dispositions
expressed externally upon need and demand. They make the human
beings live comfortably or uncomfortably as they are the
characteristics that decide their behaviour. Hence thy are required for
every human individual.
Teachers are the persons who exert great influence on their
students and hence they should possess human values. They need to
be imbibed in the teachers in making in teacher education colleges.
52
That is why this study has been undertaken to identify the level of
values possessed by the prospective teachers so that they can be
developed through proper education and guidance if found less in
them.
Prospective teachers studying in secondary teacher education in
colleges are having a high level of values. There is no significant
difference in the level of values possessed by the men and women
prospective teachers, rural and urban prospective teachers, science
and arts prospective teachers and graduate and post-graduate
prospective teachers.
The findings of this study will be of great use to the teachers,
teacher educators, and academic administrators. Policy makers and
parents to take care of the components concerned to values at
different levels and kinds of education."
Ramachadra Reddy, B (2007) studied ‘Teaching Behaviour of High
School Teachers’ (B. Ramachandra Reddy. New Delhi, Discovery

According to author while adding this book to the list of books
already adorning the galaxy of education, the author do not feel
apology for the same because there are few books in the area of
classroom/teaching behaviour. The importance of the area of process
of education is rarely felt either by the agencies, which implement
various reforms or by the researchers. In a comprehensive survey of
research in education, it is evident that the number of studies done in
the area of 'Teaching Behaviour' is negligible. This has lead to the
inadequacy of the data regarding the effective teacher behaviour or
teacher acts. Teacher educators are not clearly aware of what teacher
53
behaviour has to be developed among student teachers. Hence, they
have resorted to the global concept of methods of teaching suggested
by philosophers and psychologists. Even the process of transmitting
the behavioural characteristics to the prospective teachers is of
doubtful validity. There is a great need to conduct researches in the
areas of classroom teaching, teacher behaviour and teacher education.
This is a must, especially in developing countries like India.
Several personal and psychological factors may contribute for
effective teaching behaviour. The present book is aimed to identify
certain socio-psychological factors affecting the teaching behaviour of
high school teachers. Teaching behaviour of 256 high school teachers
are observed in their live classroom sessions through an well
established observational system.
Sharma, Meenu (1992) investigated into 'A Study of Teachers
Socio-economic Status and values with reference to their attitude
towards nation' (Ph.D., Edu., Agra Univ. - V Survey of Educational
Research). The study attempts to compare male and female teachers
of different levels for their socio-economic status, value and attitude
towards the nation (ATN). The major objectives of the study is (1) To
study the differences in value orientation, SES and ATN of Male and
female teahes of different levels; (2) To study the relationship of value-
orientation and ATN in male and female teachers of different levels,
and (iii) to study the relationship of ATN and SES among male and
female teachers of different levels.
The major findings: (1) It was found that male and female
teachers of different levels differed in SES but they did not differ on
value-orientation and ATN. (2) To some extent, value-orientation was
related to ATN. (3) ATN and SES were also found to be related.
54
Sheela (1988) studied 'Change in Teaching Behaviour as a
function of inculcation of values predicting teachers' effectiveness
(Ph.D., Edu., Panjab Univ., - V Survey of Educational Research). This
investigation is to study the change in teaching behaviour as a function
of inculcation of values predicting teacher's effectiveness.
The objectives of the study are (1) To identify the most effective
and the least effective teachers at the secondary level through a multi-
dimensional criteria of teacher effectiveness; (2) To identify the values
that best discriminate the high-effective teachers from the low-
effective teachers, through master ranks of values of each subgroup;
(3) To inculcate the identified values in student-teachers, which are
indicators of teacher effectiveness and are termed as educational
values, and (4) To test the effect of inculcation of values of the
teaching behaviour of student-teachers.
The conclusion of the study revealed that a significant
relationship was found between intelligence and value-orientation gain
for cooperation and dedication to training profession, perseverance,
scientific outlook and rationalization on various sections of VOBT at the
pre-treatment stage. However, only one value, perseverance, was
found having a positive significant relationship with intelligence at the
post-test stage. And Socio-economic status also correlated
significantly with all the five values on Test-D of VOBT at the pre-
treatment stage but none was found significantly related at the post-
test stage.
Srivastava, Vinodini (1990) studied 'A study of change
proneness and job satisfaction among teachers with reference to
teacher values (Ph.D., Edu., Agra Univ., - V Survey of Educational
Research). This study concentrates on the Change-proneness and job
55
satisfaction of teachers of different levels with reference to different
values.
The objectives of the study are - to study the differences in the
change-proneness to change among teachers with different kinds of
values and to study the differences in job satisfaction among teachers
with different kinds of values and along with other objectives.
The important findings of this study are - (1) In case of primary
teachers; there were significant sex differences in the relationship
between social values and change-proneness. (2) In the case of
Secondary School Teachers, significant sex differences in the
relationship between economic value and change-proneness, political
value and change-proneness and religious value and change-
proneness were found. (3) In the case of degree teachers no sex
difference in the relationship between different values and change-
proneness was found. (4) In the case of primary teachers and
secondary teachers, no sex difference in the relationship between
different values and job satisfaction was found. (5) In the case of
degree teachers there was a significant sex difference in the
relationship between theoretical value and job satisfaction.

Studies Abroad:
Allson Soutter (2008) probed into ‘Teachers Strategies for
promoting student well-being and preventing bullying in Steiner
Schools’. The Teachers in Rudolf Steiner schools believe in teaching
through relationships. They believe that you only learn from people
you like and respect and that to be able to teach effectively you have
56
to be able to recognize the strengths of your students. By doing this
you model respectful relationships and prevent bullying.
They begin the day or the lesson by shaking the hand of each
child as they enter the classroom. By greeting each child individually
you have a chance to have a quiet word with those who need it and
see which children are a bit fragile and need extra care to prevent
blow-ups. Then at the end of the session, before letting the children go
out into the playground you do some group activity like saying a poem.
This is believed to have an effect on preventing playground bullying.
Stenier teachers use poetry in much the same way as it was used
in the past. They find that by saying a poem together, children learn to
work together because they have to accommodate to the speed at
which others are speaking the verse. Poems are also useful to show
children how clever they are because they are much better than adults
at rote learning. Poems are always taught orally (to teach
concentration and validate poor readers), a line, then a couplet, then a
verse at a time. This shows the children everyone can learn and
prevents children being labeled as stupid and so targeted by bullies.
Each week Steiner teachers meet after school and discuss a class
of children. The rule is that everyone who teaches the children or who
has supervised them in the playground contributes ideas abut what
works with each child. There is no negativity; the focus of the meeting
is to teach the children better. Steiner teachers have the same class
for many years so they understand that it is their responsibility to
reach each child and to keep harmony in the class by showing the
children that all are valuable.
They understand that they have to find a way to like each child
and so they are encouraged to mediate on their class each night and
57
think of each child as the person they have the potential to become.
When they dislike a child they recognize that it is their problem not the
child’s. They have to ask themselves why they find errors in social
behaviour so offensive when they know it is just immature
performance of a skill. Children, Teachers have a great deal of power
to prevent bullying by showing they believe that everyone in their class
in a worthy person.
Barbara Marshall Matthews (2005) investigated into ‘the
Chinese Value Survey: An interpretation of value scales and
consideration of some preliminary results’ (Flinders University, School
of Education, Inter National Educational Journal, China).
This study investigated relationships between students'
perceptions of their teachers' interpersonal behaviour and their
subject-related attitude in primary science classes in Brunei. Teacher–
student interpersonal behaviour was mapped with the Questionnaire
on Teacher Interaction (QTI) and reported in terms of two independent
dimensions called Influence (teacher dominance vs. submission) and
Proximity (teacher cooperation vs. opposition). While prior research
using the QTI mainly focused on secondary education, the present
study was one of the first in Brunei and in primary education and one
of few studies to use multilevel analysis. Data from 1305 students from
64 classes were used in this study. Results indicated strong and
positive effects of Influence and Proximity on students' enjoyment of
their science class and supported findings of earlier work with the QTI.
Campbell, W.J.(2008) studied ‘the Teacher’s view of Teaching
Behaviour’. This study disclosed that one of the most exciting
developments in recent studies of teaching behaviour has been the
enlistment of classroom teachers to contribute to the pool of insights
58
that is accumulating. The teachers are being encouraged to see
themselves as professionals who have an excellent opportunity to
generate insights into a specialized area of human behaviour, and, at
the same time, contribute to the more general field of psychology. The
ascription of this new status has enhanced their confidence and has
resulted in their responding with sensitive and insightful comments on
the nature of teaching.
For purpose of this study, it was decided to focus upon the
expressed views of teachers, rather than upon views, which others
might infer from analyzing teaching behaviour. A second decision was
made to survey two different sets of views: (a) chose relating to
‘teaching as it is’ and (b) those relating to ‘teaching as it should be’. In
the former instance, it secured advisable to examine the views of
representative groups of teachers, but in the latter instance there
secured to be merit in focusing upon those few studies of interviews
with teachers judged to be outstandingly effective.

Dennis M.McLnerney (2005) studied ‘Educational Psychology –
Theory, Research and Teaching: A 25-year retrospective’. This presents
a brief overview of developments in educational psychology over the
last twenty-five years. It firstly presents an historical context by
reviewing four basic emphases in educational psychology; cognitive
psychology, behavioural psychology, social cognitive theory and
humanism. The article then reviews the growth in cognitive
psychology research by briefly examining developments arising from
Piagetian, Vygotskian and information processing theories. The article
examines the development of constructivist approaches to learning
and teaching, and the growth in cognitive theories of motivation,
Cross-cultural, methodological and other developments in paradoxes to
stimulate the reader to consider some implications of this 25 years
over view.
Dorothee Doerfel-Baasen (2006), University of Potsdam,
Hellogard Rauh, Germany studied ‘Parents and Teachers of Young
Children Under conditions of Socio-political Change’. His study
disclosed that ‘Socialization settings before and after the unification of
Berlin were investigated in two cohorts for young children who entered
the newly united elementary school system in 1992 or 1995 and/or
1996. Differences in East and West child-rearing and educational
values in preschool, family, and school were partly compatible with
60
hypotheses about individualistic and collectivist societies. The adults in
all three settings were apprehensive of the rapid societal changes in
the East more than in the West. Cohort changes, however, were more
pronounced in the children's behavior than in that of the adults, were
gender specific, and were more marked in the West rather than in the
East Berlin children.
Li-Ling Hsu, RN (2006) studied into ‘An analysis of Clinical
Teacher Behaviour in a nursing practicum in Taiwan’. The aim of this
study was to identify and assess the teaching behaviours (knowledge,
attitudes and skills) observed in nurse educators as they taught in the
clinical setting. Many quantitative studies have defined and evaluated
teaching effectiveness in the clinical area. Some of these studies
established instruments to evaluate faculty effectiveness in the clinical
setting; however, they tended to be so broad that they were of limited
use in understanding clinical teaching behaviours in nursing education.
This study explored clinical teaching behaviours in a nursing
practicum. Ten nurse educators taught 10 students in the medical-
surgical unit at a hospital in Taiwan for about four weeks. The
researcher observed each teacher and one other observer for two days
during regularly scheduled clinical teaching time. Data collection and
analysis were done by a qualitative approach. Content analysis is a
process of identifying, coding and categorizing the themes in the data.
The result of his study disclosed that the themes of clinical
teaching that emerged from data analysis included teaching aims
(task-oriented and learner-centered), teacher competence (teacher
knowledge, instructional strategies, planning learning experience,
teaching priorities, feedback and caring) and teaching commitment
(professional identity and giving of self). These findings offer a holistic
61
blueprint of clinical teaching for nursing faculty members, which will
enhance the quality of nursing education. Complexity in nursing
education has increased as it is challenged to meet the needs of
diverse populations in rapidly evolving and highly technical health-care
settings. Clinical teachers must be enabled and empowered to provide
students with appropriate knowledge and skills to meet the needs of
patients. To develop students’ professional nursing identity now and in
the future, nurse educators have to commit themselves to both nursing
and teaching in clinical settings. More nurses need to be prepared for
careers in education at the master’s and doctoral levels.

Sally Thomas (2007) probed into ‘Value-added measures of
School Effectiveness in the United Kingdom’. The researcher has
mostly focused on the performance of schools in terms of examination
and test results. On their own, such results are insufficient for proper
judgments about schools’ performance. Other pupil outcomes such as
pupil attendance, capacity for independent learning, attitudes towards
school and learning, behaviour and self-concept are also important.
School effectiveness research aims to investigate a broad range of
educational outcomes. Examples of this approach are provided by the
Junior School Project (Mortimore et al., 1988), the Lancashire project
(Thomas & Mortimore, 1996) and the ISEP in Schotland (MacBeath &
Mortimore, 1994), which involves collecting pupil, teacher and parent
attitude data in addition to academic outcomes. Nevertheless, the
main performance indicator for schools continues to be how successful
they are at ensuring that as many pupils as possible achieve their full
academic potential.
Seah W.T. (2002) investigated into ‘the Perception of, and
Interaction with, Value Differences by Immigrant Teachers of
Mathematics in Two Australian Secondary Classrooms’ (Journal of
Intercultural Studies, Volume 23, Number 2, 1 August 2002 , pp. 189-
210(22), Publisher: Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis Group,
Japan). This paper reports on a preliminary study which investigates
the nature of value differences experienced by two immigrant teachers
of mathematics, and their responsive strategies to negotiate these
cultural value differences/conflicts as they attempt to socialize
themselves professionally in their host culture. The research
methodology adopts a qualitative approach incorporating features of
narrative analysis. While cultural differences may not possibly be
63
eliminated, immigrant teachers may empower themselves by engaging
in cultural interactions. Practical implications are suggested.
Wee Tiong Seah, (2008) Monash University, Australia studied
‘The Professional Socialization of Teachers in Transition: A Values
Perspective’ that Teachers’ transition between sites of professional
practice can take several different forms. It may be as subtle as a
teacher moving between school levels, say, from Year 8 in the middle
school to Year 11 in the senior school within the same campus. A move
between schools may be prompted by a teacher moving his/her family
between suburbs, or from the suburb to the countryside (or vice
versa). A teacher may be moving across different school systems (e.g.
from independent school to state school), or between a co-educational
and a single-sex school. Such transitions may be facilitated in part by
the construction of new schools or the closure of those, which the
authorities deem not sustainable. Teachers may also have come from
inter-state, or from another country on teacher exchange program, as
an expatriate, or as an immigrant. In another sense, all teachers may
be regarded as teachers in transition as they practice against a
professional and socio-cultural context in which change is the only
constant. Each of these experiences potentially subjects the teacher in
transition to differences in organizational and Pedagogical cultures,
heightening feelings of dissonance and affecting teaching
effectiveness. Yet, this aspect of teacher professional socialization has
not really attracted research attention. In fact, some may expect a
teacher in transition to simply ‘fit in’ the host culture as is represented
by the school to which the teacher has joined. Against this context, a
study was designed to explore the successful experiences of teachers
in transition between professional cultures. These were examined from
64
the perspective of personal values in the socio-cultural tradition.
Specifically, the study identified a range of teacher experience of
dissonance as a result of perceived value differences (e.g. Seah, 2002),
examined ways in which these perceived differences at the teachers’
workplaces were negotiated (e.g. Seah, 2003a), and explored the
affordness and constraints associated with these negotiations. This
paper seeks to share some of the interpretations of the data collected
through the study, particularly those relevant to the values
perspective. It is worth noting at this point that the study within which
this paper is situated had been conducted in the context of secondary
mathematics, and with immigrant teachers. These immigrant teacher
participants had grown up, were educated, and had taught in their
respective home countries before settling in Australia. It was envisaged
during the conception of the study that immigrant teachers of
mathematics could potentially be a rich source of information relating
to professional socialization across cultures, in terms of the possibly
more intense experience of practicing across geopolitical borders, and
also in terms of the possibly sharper sensitivity to cultural differences
as a result of teaching a supposedly culture-free subject such as school
mathematics. This may help these teachers to acquire a richer
vocabulary with which the relevant experiences may be articulated.
Additionally, an understanding of the professional socialization
experiences of immigrant teachers is crucial in optimizing the continual
supply of foreign talent in the face of imminent severe shortage of
teachers in school classrooms in Australia.

Mittal, Jai Prakash (1992) studied 'An exploratory study of
Teachers' Motivation to work and some factors associated with high
and low work Motivation of Teachers (Ph.D., Edu., Meerut Univ. - V
Survey of Educational Research).
This studied disclosed to explore levels of Teacher's Motivation to
work and studying some of the important factors associated with high
and low work motivation of teachers, viz., their job satisfaction,
personality factors, school organization climate and pupil likings.
The objectives of the study is i) to ascertain the level of
motivation to work among school teachers and to identify those
ranking high and low on the same variable; ii) to compare those high
and low on work motivation along the following criteria and to
66
determine the impact of the same on the variables under study; iii) to
compare the attitudes of pupils towards teachers low and high on work
motivation and iv) to draw some significant conclusions on factors
affecting the work motivation of teachers from the above.
The major findings of this study - (1) In general, motivation to
work was average or above average; (2) Those belonging to the female
sex, those younger in age and those having teaching experience of up
to 10 years, scored significantly higher; (3) Status, qualification family
income did not seem to exert much of an impact on motivation to
work; (4) Those working in urban areas, unaided schools, in girls'
school and in co-educational schools displayed higher motivation to
work than those working in rural areas, government schools and
exclusively boys' schools; (5) Among school variables, the size of
school and management had no relationship with motivation to work
whereas location and type of school had; (6) High and low motivated
teachers differed along the following personality variables,
respectively, low vs. high anxiety, extraversion vs. introversion, tender
minded, emotionality vs. alert poise, and independence vs.
subduedness; (7) The teachers' motivation to work was significantly
related to job satisfaction. (8) Those higher on work motivation
perceived organizational climate to be characterized by less
disengagement and alienation, more espirit, more openness and
autonomy than those low on the same; (9) Motivation to work and
pupil ratings were positively correlated and the latter seemed to affect
the former; (10) Thirteen predictor variables accounted for 82%
variance in the criterion variable of the teachers' motivation to work;

Studies Abroad:
Camilia Anne Czubaj (1996) studied thirteen years,
kindergarten through twelfth grade, are spent by a student attain a
high school education. For thirteen years, five times a week, six hours
a day – this enormous amount of time a student remains under the
direction of a teacher. The teacher thusly, plays a significant role in
the student’s life. As one become a product of one’s learning, the
student builds him/herself with the teachings of a teacher. The
teacher’s knowledge, along with the teacher’s feelings become
integrated within the student’s schemata. Should the teacher not like
teaching; the student emerges from the classroom with a dislike for
education. When the teacher loves his/her profession, the student
learns to love education. What makes a person love his/her
profession? There are many dynamics, which coalesce into the person
who loves his/her profession. The major dynamic is motivation. When
one understands the components involved in the construct of
motivation, one can better become and remain motivated. When a
teacher remains motivated, loving the teaching profession, the
students not only learn the content taught by the teacher.
Clermont Barnabeacute & Mildred Burns (1994) studied
‘Teacher’s Job Characteristics and Motivation’ (Department of
Administration and Policy Studies in Education, McGill University,
Quebec, Canada H3A 1Y2, Published in: journal Educational Research,
Volume 36, Issue 2 Summer 1994, pages 171 – 185, U.K).
The Job Characteristics Model of Motivation, developed by
Hackman and Oldham, proposed interactive relationships between job
68
characteristics, psychological states and worker motivation. The Job
Diagnostic Survey (JDS) has provided a useful diagnostic tool for
business settings. This project tested the utility of the JDS to diagnose
factors affecting teachers' motivation.
Editorial (2007) published ‘Influences of job type, job status, and
gender on achievement motivation’ (Journal Current Psychology,
Springer New York, Volume 14, Number 2 / June, 1995, Subject
Collection Behavioral Science, Demark).
The report reveals that this study explored two issues. First, the
stereotype was explored that teachers are lower in intrinsic
achievement motivation than those in other occupations; second, that
job type, job status, and/or gender influence intrinsic achievement
motivation. Job type was explored based on the stereotype of a high
achievement motivation condition (banking) versus a low condition
(teaching). Job status was examined as currently working versus
retirement from the occupation. Gender referred to sex, male and
female. Each of the eight cells of a 2x2x2 factorial design contained 15
subjects randomly drawn from population pools (N=264) screened for
membership on specific age, years of employment, and years of
retirement. Intrinsic achievement motivation was assessed by the four
factors of the Helmreich and Spence (1974) Work and Family
Orientation Questionnaire (WOFO). Data were analyzed for main and
interaction affects using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA).
No support was found for the proposition that banking personnel are
higher in motivation than teachers. On the second issue, gender and
job status yielded statistically significant effects, suggesting that a
person’s gender and whether he is working or retired both exert an
influence upon his intrinsic achievement motivation.

training’ (Source: Educational Studies, Volume 26, Number 1, 1 March
2000, pp. 5-17(13), Publisher: Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis
Group, France).
The researcher disclosed that the paper begins by outlining
recent reforms of initial teacher training in France, changes aimed at
moving French teacher training away from its traditional focus on
subject knowledge and pedagogic theory towards a stronger emphasis
on classroom practice issues such as teaching and learning strategies
and motivating reluctant learners. It goes on to examine the
perceptions of some French trainee teachers; for example, how well
prepared they felt for the challenges ahead and their training and
support whilst on placement. Their responses reveal concern about the
appropriateness and variability of some of their training, particularly
school-based elements and mentor support. The responses also raise
some interesting comparisons with experience in the UK and other
European countries, all of which are debating matters such as teacher
accountability, societal expectations of the education system and how
teachers should be trained. These comparative issues will be the focus
for further research.
Green, J; Nelson, G; Mortin, A.J and Marsh, H.(2008)
studied ‘The Casual Ordering of Self-concept and Academic Motivation
and its effect on Academic Achievement’. Critical questions in
educational psychology research to be addressed in this paper concern
the casual relationship between Academic Self-concept and Academic
Motivation effect on Academic Achievement. Do changes in Academic
Self-concept and Academic Motivation lead to changes in subsequent
70
Academic Achievement? Various studies have attempted to answer
this question by examining the casual relations between Academic
Self-concept and Academic Achievement as well as Academic
Motivation and Academic Achievement. Less integral to research
however has been the investigation of the relationship between both
Academic Self-concept and Academic Motivation and their combined
effects on Academic Achievement. For this reason, this paper aims to
education further the relationships among self-concept, Motivation and
Academic Achievement by proposing a longitudinal design by which
self-concept and motivation are measure from a multidimensional
perspective. The theoretical and practical implications of this
important question were discussed.
Jonathan Bayley and others (2008) studied ‘Teacher 2001
Project: The Canadian Study of Teacher Satisfaction, Motivation and
Health’. This is a progress report on the Canadian Teacher, 2001
Project: The Canadian study of teacher satisfaction, motivation and
health. This study is part of an international study of teachers in which
their data and analysis will be compared to those of colleagues in New
Zealand, U.S.A., England, Australia and Malta. A team of five from the
University of Regina’s Faculty of Education has undertaken to conduct
the Canadian portion of this investigation. We anticipate collecting
several thousand surveys and intend to report on the full sample of
responses and to compare these with sub-samples drawn to reflect the
makeup by province of characteristics such as gender, grade level
taught, public and other schools, linguistic grouping and provincial
jurisdiction. In addition to using a common set of questions for the
basic survey, we have included questions submitted by our research
partners from the profession of teaching. This study is presently being
71
conducted via a website in Canada. Problems with Internet Service
Providers (ISPs) and their own server caused some of their early
respondents to be frustrated by completing the questionnaire and not
being able to submit. They have changed the design of the website to
assign an identification number to an individual logging on. The
individual may then exit the website and re-enter, using their
identification number to complete their responses. The short answer
portion of the questionnaire takes only about a half hour to complete
but the longer written commentary on the open-ended questions may
extend the time necessary to complete the survey.
This study is part of an international study of teachers in which
our data and analysis will be compared to those of colleagues in New
Zealand, USA, England, Australia and Malta. A Team of five from the
University of Regina’s Faculty of Education has undertaken to conduct
the Canadian investigation of teacher job satisfaction, motivation and
health. The principal researcher for this project (Ryan) was one of five
researchers for the New Zealand study, out of which came strong
indicators of factors influencing teacher and student performance
(Teacher 2000 Project: An International Study of Teacher Satisfaction,
Motivation and Health. The New Zealand Report, 1998). The research
literature indicates that social contexts surrounding today’s schools are
having powerful and worrisome effects on teacher and the
opportunities provided for children to develop their potential. The
study encompasses a detailed two-year quantitative and qualitative
analysis of teachers’ perceptions of the impact of their teaching role on
their general satisfaction and well-being.
Kerry Barnett & John McCormick (2003) studied ‘Vision,
relationships and Teacher Motivation: A Case Study’ (Journal of
72
Educational Administration, Year:2003, Volume41, Issue1, pp.55-73,
10.11.2008, Australia).
The investigation of the said authors disclosed that the School
leaders continue to be urged to have vision. Some argue that effective
schools have principals who create and communicate a vision for the
school. However, although there is literature on visionary leadership,
relatively little is empirical. The purpose of the study was to investigate
transformational leadership behaviour and vision in schools. Four
schools, in which the transformational leadership practices of principals
were perceived by teachers to be characterized by individual concern
and vision, were identified. A qualitative approach using semi-
structured interviews was used to collect data. Content analysis
identified patterns and themes in the data from which propositions and
conclusions were drawn. Within the context of the study, the results
suggest that the influence of vision may be overestimated and the
most critical leadership transformational behaviour is individual
concern. The main conclusion of the study is that leadership in schools
is mainly characterized by relationships with individuals, and it is
through these relationships a leader is able to establish her/his
leadership and encourage teachers to apply their expertise, abilities,
and efforts towards shared purposes.
Lesley Mandel Morrow & John Young Rutgers (1997)
studied ‘A Family Literacy Program connecting school and Home :
Effects on Attitude, Motivation and Literacy Achievement’. This study
connects home and school literacy contexts by involving parents in
developmentally appropriate and culturally sensitive literacy activities
with their children. The purpose of the programme was to enhance
children’s achievement and interests in literacy. The family
73
programme was similar to a literature-based school programme that
included classroom literacy centers, teacher-modeled literature
activities, and literacy center time. Meetings were held monthly, with
parents, teachers, and children all working together. The programme
was in inner-city school district including African American and Latino
families. There were 56 children in 1st through 3rd grades (28 in the
experimental group and 28 in the control) pre and posttest data
determined achievement and motivation differences favouring the
family programme.
Magdalena Kubanyiova (2006) studied ‘Developing a
Motivational Teaching Practice in EFL Teachers in Slovakia: Challenges
of Promoting Teacher Change in EFL Contexts’. This study disclosed
the role of the teacher in engaging students in learning is immensely
complex in that it concerns almost all academic and social aspects of
the classroom environment. Doryei’s (1994a) situated framework of L2
role that impact on L2 motivation the affiliative motive (i.e., students’
desire to please the teacher), authority type (i.e., authoritarian,
democratic or laissez-faire teaching style) and direct socialization of
student motivation, which includes modeling, task, presentation and
feedback. The extent to which the teacher fulfils these roles, in other
words, the extent to which opportunities for learner engagement are
either constructed or obstructed, does not only depend on what the
teacher does in the classroom, but also on how the classroom
discourse is used (Walsh, 2002). Clearly, teachers are responsible for
creating and maximizing learning opportunities (Kumaravadivelu,
2003) in very complex ways, fulfilling both academic and social rules.
The importance of attending to both pedagogic and social
priorities by the teacher (Senior, 2002) has been acknowledged and
74
specific teacher behaviours that enhance learner motivation have been
outlined in numerous theoretical frameworks. These include classroom
environment research (see e.g., the Classroom Environment Scales in
Moos, 1979), self-determination theory (Noels, 2003; Noels, Clement &
Pelletier, 1999; Reeve & Jang, 2006; Skinner & Belmont, 1993), goal
orientation theory (Midgley, Kaplan & Middleton, 2001; Patrick, 2004;
Turner et al., 2002), or research on L2 anxiety (Spielmann & Radnofsky,
2001). They all posit that in order to enhance students’ motivation to
engage in learning, creating sufficient opportunities for cognitive
development (by, for example, promoting autonomy, emphasizing
mastery over performance goals, and providing informative feedback)
seems to be equally important as creating a caring classroom climate.
Mei-Mei Changa (2005) studied Modern Foreign Languages
(National Pingtung University of Science and Technology, Taiwan,
Journal Computer Assisted Language Learning, Volume 18, Issue 3 July
2005 , pages 217 – 230, China).
This study reveals that the purpose of this study was to examine
the effect of self-regulated learning strategies on learners' perception
of motivation within web-based instruction. In this study, self-regulated
learning strategies, which were intended to assist students to self-
observe and self-evaluate their effectiveness, were incorporated into a
one-semester web-based course to help students improve their
learning motivation. Research results revealed that students'
motivation perception benefited from the web-based instruction with
self-regulated learning strategies. Students learning within a web-
based environment with self-regulated learning strategies became
more responsible for their own learning, more intrinsically orientated
and more challengeable. They tended to value the learning material
75
more and became more confident in course understanding and class
performance.
Yu,Weihua (2005) probed into ‘Promoting in quality in China’s
Higher Education by Motivating Students Attending the British Culture
Survey Course’. In this study an intervention project by means of
motivational approaches in a British Culture Survey Course for English
majors in main land China’s university classroom context. The
intervention uses such motivational theories as attribution and task
orientation to motivate the teaching and learning of the EFL course so
as to create a cooperative classroom environment. Theoretical bases
of the Chinese heritage culture and motivation are examined, specific
intervention procedures discussed, relevant data analyzed and finally
some suggestions regarding the EFL teachers’ important role in
promoting the quality of EFL education are made. The intervention
results show that an innovative pedagogy to motivate students’ meta-
cognitive awareness, cognitive and socio-cognitive ability in
cooperative classroom learning situations different from the traditional
cramming methods and examinations proves effective. Motivation
should be given a central role in promoting China’s EFL quality
Education.

Agarwala, Surila (1999) investigated into 'Relative Efficacy of
Word-supply and sentence repeat method in the modification of oral
reading errors' (Psycho-Lingua, Vol.29 (2), 97-100 (IEA, Vol.1, January,

This study envisaged that because of a marked increase in the
Canadian immigrant and refugee population in recent years, school
psychologists today are frequently called upon to make
recommendations concerning the learning needs of students from
many diverse backgrounds and cultures. The purpose of this study was
to examine possible gender as well as cultural differences in
mathematics attitude, achievement, and self-efficacy between
Canadian high school students and English-speaking high school
students from a northern city in India. Although the participants, tested
in their home countries, were administered the same battery of
measures, the findings revealed, among other things, significant
multivariate and corresponding univariate country, gender, and country
x gender interaction effects. The importance of these findings for the
practice of school psychology is discussed.
Goker (2006) studied the impact of peer coaching on self-
efficacy and instructional skills of EFL pre-service teachers in Northern
Cyprus. Using Bandura's (1995) General Self-Efficacy Scale, Goker
found that peer coaching improved pre-service teachers' self-efficacy.
The findings of this study, similar to Hoy and Woolfolk (1990) and Sia
(1992) study, show that experiential activities, such as teaching
practicum or other mastery experiences seem to have a great impact
on self-efficacy of pre-service teachers.

Studies Abroad:
Andre’ Brouwer and Welko Tomic (2000) probed into ‘A
longitudinal study of teacher burnout and perceived self-efficacy in
classroom management.’ (Faculty of Social Sciences, The Open
University, P.O. Box 2960 NL-6401 DL Heerlen, Netherlands)
This study examined the direction and time frame of relationships
between perceived self-efficacy in classroom management and the
three dimensions of burnout among 243 secondary school teachers.
Structural equation modeling (SEM) analyses indicated that perceived
self-efficacy had a longitudinal effect on depersonalization and a
synchronous effect on personal accomplishment. However, the
direction was reversed for the relationship between perceived self-
efficacy and emotional exhaustion; the time frame was synchronous. It
was concluded that perceived self-efficacy in classroom management
must be taken into consideration when devising interventions both to
prevent and to treat burnout among secondary school teachers.
Chacón (2005), meanwhile, looked at self-perceived efficacy of a
group of 100 EFL middle school teachers in Venezuela and how this
related to their self-reported English proficiency. Using the short
78
version of the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale based on Tschannen-
Moran & Woolfolk Hoy (2001), and two other subscales (self-reported
proficiency and pedagogical strategies), Chacón (2005) found that
teachers' perceived efficacy was positively correlated with self-
reported English proficiency. As for the relation between teachers'
sense of efficacy and their use of pedagogical strategies
(communication-oriented vs. grammar-oriented), the results indicated
that the efficacy did not have an influence over the kind of strategies
these teachers preferred. The EFL teachers in this study seemed to be
more inclined toward adopting grammar-oriented methods of teaching.
Denzine; Gypsy M.; Cooney, John B and Mckenzie, Rita
(2005) investigated into ‘Confirmatory factor analysis of the Teacher
Efficacy Scale for prospective Teachers’. The research background on
Teacher Self-Efficacy has revealed substantive problems concerning the
validity of instruments used to measure teacher self-efficacy beliefs.
Although claims about the influence of teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs on
student achievement, success with curriculum innovation, and so on,
may be true statements, one cannot make those claims on the basis of
that body of evidence if the instruments are not valid measures of
teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs.
The purpose of this investigation is to employ the use of modern
confirmatory factor-analytic techniques to investigate the validity of
the hypothesized dimensions of the Teacher Efficacy Scale (Gibson &
Dembo, 1984; Woolfolk & Hoy, 1990).
Participants for this investigation were 387 prospective teachers
recruited from a university located in the southwestern region of the
UA. Participants for Study 2 were 131 prospective elementary teachers
recruited from the same university as in study1.
79
A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) procedure was used to
evaluate the goodness-of-fit for two theoretical models of the TES
items. The proposed two and three factor models of teacher self-
efficacy for prospective teachers were rejected. A re-specified three-
factor model of the TES was then derived from theoretical and
empirical considerations. The re-specified model hypothesized three
dimensions viz., self-efficacy beliefs, outcome expectations and
external locus-of-causality. The Study 2, the re-specified three-factor
measurement model was evaluated in a new sample. Results of the
CFA procedure indicated satisfactory fit of the re-specified model to the
data; however, the results were not consistent with predictors derived
from social learning theory.
The results of this study call into question the use of the TES and
the interpretation of a large body of literature purporting to study the
relationship of teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs to important educational
outcomes.
Editorial (2005) report on ‘Self-Efficacy, Stress, and Academic
Success in College’ (Journal Research in Higher Education, Publisher-
Springer Netherlands, Issue Volume 46, Number 6 / September, 2005,

This paper investigates the joint effects of academic self-efficacy and
stress on the academic performance of 107 nontraditional, largely
immigrant and minority, college freshmen at a large urban commuter
institution. We developed a survey instrument to measure the level of
academic self-efficacy and perceived stress associated with 27 college-
related tasks. Both scales have high reliability, and they are
moderately negatively correlated. We estimated structural equation
80
models to assess the relative importance of stress and self-efficacy in
predicting three academic performance outcomes: first-year college
GPA, the number of accumulated credits, and college retention after
the first year. The results suggest that academic self-efficacy is a more
robust and consistent predictor than stress of academic success.
Gakiroglu, Erdino (2005) studied ‘Teacher Efficacy and
Academic Performance’. The aim of the study was to investigate the
effect of gender and university grade level on pre-service teachers’
mathematics teaching efficacy belief and academic performance. The
analysis was based on 258 pre-service teachers enrolled in an
undergraduate program in Ankara, Turkey. Results revealed that the
significant effect of gender and university grade level on performance.
However, there is no significant effect of gender and university grade
level on mathematics teaching efficacy. Thus, gender and grade level
are important constructs having impact on performance of pre-service
teachers.
Ghaith and Shaaban (1999) investigated how teaching
experience, gender, and grade level taught correlate with personal and
general teacher efficacy and perceptions of teaching concerns among
292 Lebanese teachers from different school backgrounds. Gibson and
Dembo's (1984) 16-item teaching efficacy scale, in addition to a 28-
item measure that addressed teaching concerns (Ghaith & Yaghi,
1997b) was adopted. Results of the study revealed that personal
teaching efficacy and general teaching efficacy were not internally
related and represented two distinct indices. Personal teaching
efficacy, rather than general teaching efficacy, was found to be related
to the perception of teaching concerns. Specifically, the study's results
showed that teaching experience and personal efficacy were
81
negatively correlated with the perception of teaching concerns; that is,
the longer their years in teaching and the more confidence they had in
their personal ability to provide effective teaching, the less they were
concerned about problems related to teaching such as the relations
with parents and supervisors (self-survival) or meeting students'
individual needs (impact). On the other hand, gender, grade level
taught, and general efficacy were not found to be related to the
teachers' perceptions of any of the categories of teaching concerns.
This contradicts Pigge and Marso's (1987) findings that females and
elementary teachers had higher teaching concerns than males and
secondary teachers.
Gibson (1984) studied ‘Teacher Efficacy: A Construct Validation.
According to him Teacher efficacy has been identified as a variable
accunting for individual differences in teaching effectiveness. This
study of elementary school teachers developed an instrument to
measure teacher efficacy, provided construct validation support for the
variable, and examined the relationship between teacher efficacy and
observable teacher behaviours.
Ginns, Ian S.; Watters, James, J. (1996) investigated into
‘Experiences of Novice Teachers: Changes in Self-Efficacy and their
Belief about Teaching’ (Descriptors: Beginning Teacher Induction;
Beginning Teachers; Elementary Education; Elementary School
Science; Foreign Countries; Science Instruction; Science Teachers; Self
Efficacy; Teacher Effectiveness; Teacher Motivation in Australia)
The main objective of this study was to explore the experiences
of two novice elementary school teachers for factors related to self-
efficacy and motivation to teach science. The experiences were
analyzed for evidence of: (1) successful performance, vicarious
82
experience, verbal persuasion, and emotional arousal as contributors
to the development of science teaching self-efficacy; and (2) links
between self-efficacy and the nature and style of science and other
programs implemented by each novice teacher. The design was based
on qualitative measures using semi-structured interviews conducted at
the mid-point and at the end of each subject's first year of elementary
school teaching. It was found that the subjects benefited from
involvement in a cooperative teaching situation and from a small
school environment with a supportive principal. Induction programs
that provide this kind of support enable novice teachers to implement
worthwhile programs. Teachers who have experienced success and
have high levels of self-efficacy should be mentors for novice teachers.
It is concluded that if teacher educators, experienced teachers, and
school administrators combine their expertise and efforts to foster and
develop novice teachers' sense of science teaching self-efficacy, the
education system can operate more effectively for the betterment of
science education. (Contains 18 references.) (JLS)
Jack Campbell (1996) investigated into ‘A Comparison of
Teacher Efficacy for Pre and In-service Teachers in Scotland and
America’. The observations of the investigator suggests that teacher is
a complex process requiring skills and strategies such as – preparing
lesson and unit plans, motivating students to learn, creating a climate
for teaching, using textbooks and curriculum guides effectively, using a
variety of teaching skills, using media and technology, maintaining
classroom discipline and diagnosing student difficulties and adapting
instruction to meet individual needs. Pre-service and in-service
teacher education programs must certainly include preparation in
these important areas, but should also include the development of
83
confidence in ones ability to execute these teaching activities
effectively. This latter concept has come to be known as teacher
efficacy.
Jefferey, G.Orrell & Earl W.Capron (1988) studied ‘Effects of
Instructional Type and Feedback on Prospective Teachers’ Self-Efficacy
Beliefs’. In this study under-graduate teacher education students were
ran randomly assigned to observe two types of instruction and two
types of attributional feedback concerning teaching a child how to find
the main idea of a paragraph. Dependent measures were the
students’ self-efficacy beliefs regarding teaching the skill and their
predicted persistence in teaching the skill. Two (cognitive modeling vs.
direct instruction) by two (self-efficacy vs. task-oriented statements)
ANOVAs revealed significant effects for cognitive modeling related to
increases in self-efficacy beliefs and persistence levels, and for task-
oriented statements in raising persistence levels. Implications for
research in self-efficacy theory are discussed.
The observation of above researchers is applying self-efficacy
theory in studies of teacher’s beliefs and teacher training. Ashton and
Webb (1986) found that a number of different teacher behaviours are
associated with high self-efficacy beliefs, suggesting that a sense of
self-efficacy contributes to teacher motivation. Because teacher are
expected to manage a wide range of social and academic processes in
the course of a school day, their beliefs concerning the efficacy of their
efforts maybe important determinants of their persistence and the
quality of their efforts. Thus, the training programs that attempt to
instill appropriate skills and attitudes in prospective teachers may need
to consider the effects of their training efficacy beliefs of prospective
teachers.

Josephine M.Shireen Desouza (2004) investigated into ‘A
Study of Science Teaching Self-efficacy and outcome expectancy
beliefs of Teachers in India’ (Dept. of B Biology, Ball State University,
Muncie, IN 47306-0440, USA).
The study reveals that middle school teachers in urban schools
in India provided responses to the science efficacy instrument (STEBI-
A). These responses were evaluated using Rasch analysis and
parametric tests. Rasch fit statistics fit statistics and person-item
maps were evaluated. It was found that the instrument worked well for
the two groups of teachers, but the differential item functioning
analysis fund that the teachers utilized several items in the scale
differently. Parametric tests suggested that self-efficacy and outcome
expectancy measures correlated highly for middle school teacher, for
those that did not have a science degree and written science
curriculum. Significant predicators of self-efficacy are – minutes per
week science is taught, educational level, number of days in the school
year, holding of a science degree, and the presence of a science
curriculum. From all of the analyses we conclude that teaching
experience is important, but not necessarily enough to increase
teachers’ outcome expectancy beliefs. The results of this study should
benefit educators and policy makers with respect to teacher education
in India and around the world.
Kevin D.Finson (2001) studied ‘Investigating Pre-service
Elementary Teachers’ Self-Efficacy Relative to Self-Image as a Science
Teacher. This study is part of the examination of a pilot investigation
into the possible relationship between pre-service teachers’ self-
efficacy and perceptions of self as a science teacher. Self-efficacy was
measured using the science Teaching Efficacy belief Instrument, Form
85
B (STEBT-B) developed by Riggs and Enochs (1990). Perceptions of self
as a science teacher were measured using the revised DASTT-C. In this
instance, pre-test and post-test data generated by both instruments for
a single elementary science methods class were utilized and
compared. In addition, pre-service teachers wrote brief narrative
descriptions of their drawings. These data were compared in an
attempt to determine if any relationship appears to exist between
DASTT-C and STEBI scores.
Scanian, Kolone, R.L. (2006) Studied ‘Self-Efficacy,
perceptions of barriers, Vocational identity, and the career exploration
behaviour of Latino/a high school students. This study explored the
potential relationship between the social cognitive variables of career
decision-making self-efficacy and perceptions of barriers and the
outcome variables of vocational identity and career exploration
behaviours in sample of 128 urban Latino/a high school students. The
results indicates that higher levels of career decision-making self-
efficacy were related to both differentiated vocational identity and a
greater engagement with career exploration tasks. Perception of fewer
barriers was also found to be related to a more integrated vocational
identity.
The term Latinos/as is a socio-racial categorization, representing
an aggregator of a number of district national subgroups (e.g., Puerto
Rican, Mexican, Dominican, Cuban), based on supposed differences in
cultural practices (e.g., language, religion) as compared with the
Anglo-Sexon Protestant norm in the United States (Chapa & Valencia,
1993; Cormaz-Diaz, 2001; Earmon & Mulder, 2005; Helms & Cooke,
1999). In 2002, 38.2 million Latinos/as resided in the United States,
constituting 12% of the total U.S. population (Ramirez & de la Cruz,
86
2003). Although Latinos/as represent the fastest growing sector of the
US labour market, their levels of educational and occupational
attainment remain significantly below that of non-Hispanic Whites
(Ramirez & de la Cruz, 2003; Tsai, Pole, Levenson, & Munoz, 2003).
Given the youthfulness of the Latino/a community as compared with
other demographic groups (Eamon & Mulder, 2005; Hobbs & Stoops,
2002, Zayas, Lester, Cabassa & Fortuna, 2005). Latinos/as constitute
not only a growing proportion of the US population but all a segment of
the population likely to be making career-related decisions in the
coming years.
Decision-making self-efficacy has been identified as an important
variable in the career development of high school students. Career
decision-making self-efficacy refers to the degree to which individuals
feel confident in their ability to successfully engage in tasks associated
with making a career choice and with commitment to a career (Taylor
& Betz, 1983). It has also been observed that career-related self-
efficacy in general may prove to be an important element in
formulating a model of career development for Lathinos/as (Arbona,
1995; Fouac, 1995). Research has shown support for the relationship
between career self-efficacy and career interests, as well as careers
considered among young adult Latino/a students studying for high
school equivalency degree (Bores-Rangel, Chuch, Szendre & Reeves,
1990; Church, Teresa, Rosebrook & Szendre, 1992). Fores and O’Brien
(2002) found that self-efficacy for nontraditional careers was
negatively related to traditional career choices and positively relate to
prestige for a group of female Mexican American high school students.
Research has not yet examined the role that career decision-making
self-efficacy may play among Latino/a adolescents.
87
Several vocational researchers have noted the potential influence
that perceptions of barriers may have on the career decision-making
process for people who face systemic factors (e.g., racial/ethnic
discrimination, institutionalized racism) that have traditionally limited
educational attainment and career advancement (Arbona, 1990; Lent
et al., 1994). Brown and Lent (1996) observed that perceived
educational and occupational barriers might negatively affect career
development by limiting the translation of interests into goals and
goals into actions. McWhirter (1997) noted that Mexican American
high school students reported more perceived barriers than did their
European American counterpart. However, in another sample of
Mexican American adolescents, McWhirter et al., (1998) did not find a
direct effect between perceptions of barriers and career expectations.
This study considers the potential influence of career decision-
making self-efficacy and perceptions of barriers of vocational identity.
One of the central tasks of adolescence is identity development
(Erikson, 1963). In an effort to solidity a self-image, adolescents
struggle to gain a better understanding of their own emotions, beliefs,
and values. Additionally, they are likely to seek a sense meaning or
purpose in their lives and have a greater tendency to look toward the
process of identity formation is the establishment of a vocational
identity, including a clearer and more stable sense of one’s interests,
abilities, and talent as well as the ability to establish goals and make
career-related decisions (Holland, Daiger & Power, 1980). Super,
Savickas, and Super (1996) observed that the establishment of a
vocational identity – the assessment and knowledge a person’s
objective vocational traits – serves as the basis for making occupation
choices that are a good fit, consequently ensuring optimal adjustment
88
outcomes. To our knowledge, no empirical studies have directly
examined the construct of vocational identify in Latino/a high school
students.
The researcher has also examined the potential impact of career
decision-making self-efficacy and perceptions of barriers on career
exploration behaviours. Specifically, activities related to career
exploration (e.g., participating in a mock interview, conducting
research on a specific career) provide students with the opportunity to
explore their interests and therefore enhance their career
development. Previous researchers have examined the potential
impact of care exploration behaviours within the context of career
development as well as the factors that may, in turn, influence the
type and number of career activities in which an individual chooses to
engage (Blustein, 1989; Luzzo, James & Luna, 1996; Nevill & Schlecker,
1988; Solberg, Good, Fischer, Brown & Nord, 1995).
Schmitz, G. S., & Schwarzer, R. (2000) studied ‘Self-efficacy of
Teachers in Germany’. In this study it is observed that why do some
teachers succeed in being good teachers, in continuously enhancing
students' achievements, in setting high goals for themselves and
pursuing them persistently, while other teachers cannot meet
expectations imposed on them and tend to collapse under their burden
of daily stress? There are many reasons. One pertains to a teacher's
perceived self–efficacy as a job specific personality trait. In the present
article, the construct of perceived teacher self–efficacy is defined and
distinguished from related constructs by referring to Bandura's social–
cognitive theory. In a retrospective view on the history of the construct
in the English–speaking world, theoretical problems and psychometric
deficiencies become obvious. To stimulate research in the German–
89
speaking countries, a new scale to measure teacher self–efficacy was
developed and tested in a longitudinal field study. The nationwide test
of this instrument on 275 teachers in ten schools revealed good
psychometric properties. First indicators of validity could be obtained
by means of correlations with other teacher characteristics at two
points in time. High negative relations with job strain and with job
burnout were found. Moreover, teachers high on teacher self–efficacy
were used to offer up more leisure time for their students than their
less self–efficacious counterparts.
Selaledid, K.(2008) studied ‘Teacher Efficacy in the Free State
Province of South Africa’ ( Department of Education, Vista University,
Welkom Campus, P.O. Box 1881, Welkom, 9460, AFRIQUE DU SUD,
France).
This study operationalised the self-efficacy construct and applied it to
the assessment of teachers' self-efficacious behaviours with respect to
the new educational perspective in the Free State Province after May
10, 1994. Data sources included 1128 sampled primary and secondary
urban school- teachers from 93 schools. The variables studied were
School Category, Gender, and Teaching experience as independent
variables. The dependent variable was Self-efficacy. After factorial
analyses and the use of three-way ANOVA, the findings revealed a
significant effect for the School Category with respect to Teacher
Administrative Responsibilities (TAR), Teacher Classroom Organization
(TCO), and Teacher in Relationship with Others (TRO) as dependent
variables. This pattern was inconsistent with Gender and Teaching
Experience. A discussion, interpretation of the results, and suggestion
for future research in this realm are rendered.
Paula A.DeForest & Jan N.Hughes (1992) probed into ‘Effect
90
of Teacher Involvement and Teacher Self-Efficacy on Ratings of
Consultant Effectiveness and Intervention Acceptability’. The study
indicates that from a pool of 102 elementary school teachers, 30
teachers scoring highest on a measure of personal teaching efficacy
and 30 teachers scoring lowest on personal teaching efficacy were
randomly assigned to view one of two videotapes of consultation. The
two videotapes were identical, with the exception of the teacher’s
involvement in making decisions at each of three decision points in
consultation: Identifying the problem, selecting an assessment
procedure, and selecting an intervention plan. After viewing the tape,
teachers rated the consultant’s effectiveness and the intervention’s
acceptability. Teachers with high personal teaching efficacy rated the
consultant as more effective and the intervention as more acceptable.
No main effect for level of involvement or hypothesized interaction
effect was found. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
Zohreh, R.Eslami (2008) studied ‘Teachers' Sense of Self-
Efficacy, English Proficiency, and Instructional Strategies: A Study of
Nonnative EFL Teachers in Iran’ (Azizullah Fatahi Tarbiat Modarres
University, Iran).
This study examined the efficacy beliefs of nonnative English
speaking (NNES) Iranian EFL teachers. EFL teachers' perceptions of
their teaching efficacy in terms of personal capabilities to teach English
as a Foreign Language (EFL) and their perceived English language
proficiency level were examined. A modified version of the Teacher
Sense of Efficacy Scale (Tschannen-Moran & Woolfolk Hoy, 2001) was
used to assess efficacy for management, engagement, and
instructional strategies. Based on Chacón's (2005) study, two other
subscales (self-reported proficiency and pedagogical strategies) were
91
also used. The results showed that the teachers' perceived efficacy
was positively correlated with self-reported English proficiency. The
findings also revealed that the more efficacious the teachers felt, the
more inclined they were to use communicative-based strategies. The
study has implications for the preparation of NNES teachers and the
support they need to develop their language proficiency, which in turn
is related to their perceived self-efficacy.

METHODOLOGY
After careful review of previous researches, it is found that there
are adequate number of studies in quantity and quality on Teacher
Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy, but very
few studies are found on relationship between Teacher Value
Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy.
Allson Soutter (2008) probed into ‘Teachers Strategies for
promoting student well being and preventing bullying in Steiner
Schools’. The Teachers in Rudolf Steiner schools believe in teaching
through relationships.
Barbara Marshall Matthews (2005) investigated into ‘the Chinese
Value Survey: An interpretation of value scales and consideration of
some preliminary results’.
Anand, S.P. (1996) studied 'Development of a motivational
package to promote Teacher effectiveness at Primary level.
Mittal, Jai Prakash (1992) studied 'An exploratory study of
Teachers' Motivation to work and some factors associated with high
and low work Motivation of Teachers
Clermont Barnabeacute & Mildred Burns (1994) studied ‘Teacher’s
Job Characteristics and Motivation’.
Green, J; Nelson, G; Mortin, A.J and Marsh, H.(2008) studied ‘The
Casual Ordering of Self-concept and Academic Motivation and its effect
on Academic Achievement’.
Teachers with a high sense of efficacy about their teaching
capabilities may have an easier time motivating their students and
enhancing their cognitive development. These teachers may also be
able to refund from setbacks and more willing to experiment with new
93
ideas or techniques. Low efficacious teachers may rely more on a
controlling teaching style and may be more critical of students
(Woolfolk Hoy.2003).
Bandura (2001) opined that ‘Schools in which staff members
collectively judge themselves capable of promoting academic success
imbue their schools with a positive atmosphere for development that
promotes academic attainments regardless of whether they serve
predominantly advantaged or disadvantaged students.
The review points out that Teacher Self-Efficacy research tends
not to adhere to an agentic perspective as a theoretical framework in
consistent and systematic ways. There was often disconnecting
between the researchers' ways of understanding and defining Teacher
Efficacy and their ways of capturing data and assessing the construct.
In addition, across studies, there has been differential attention given
to capturing the variation in degrees of agency that characterize the
construct. Moreover, in many of the selected studies, it was observed
that Teacher Efficacy was treated as an outcome of other variables
such as opportunity for staff development and teaching level, fewer
studies have investigated its influential role in directing teaching
related decisions and behaviors. This trend reflects a discrepancy
between Teacher Self-Efficacy research and the core spirit of Bandura's
concept of self-efficacy, or agency, which lends to the confusion in
understanding the nature and role of Teacher Self-Efficacy in education.
Conclusively, to make headway in this field of research, it is
critical to first clarify and make explicit the theoretical underpinnings of
this work. Bandura's triadic reciprocal model provides a useful
framework from which to work. The challenge appears to be remaining
consistent in the application of the directives of this theory in the
94
design of future studies and in the development of instrumentation
(Farlex Free Library – Articles on Teacher Education, December, 22,
2005). It also may be important to consider the significance of Teacher
Self-Efficacy as a personal trait that differentially predicts teacher
behavior and its relation with Teacher Value Behaviour and Teacher
Motivation. Although the current review is limited in its scope due to
the small number of studies considered, it is useful in suggesting an
alternative paradigm from which to scrutinize Teacher Self-Efficacy.
In Indian scenario Teacher Self-efficacy is one of recent
developing aspect in educational research concept. Hence, the
researcher of the present study has attempted to pursue his
investigation on Teacher Self-Efficacy in relation to Teacher Value
Behaviour and Teacher Motivation.
4.1.0: Definitions of the Terms Used:
In the present study the investigator is confined to ascertain the
relationship between three teachers centered variables viz., Teacher
Value Behaviiour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy. The
definitions of these variables are dealt with hereunder.
4.1.1: Teacher Value Behaviour:
This aspect was designed with five dimensions and each
dimension is focused to measure the behavioural value of the teacher
on different aspects.
(1) Work aspect:
The work aspect is disclosed the commitment, sincerity,
regularity, obedience, and sympathy etc., of the Teacher
(2) Learner aspect:
This aspect envisages that appreciation of the learner, identifying
the right thinking, development of honesty and cooperation, patience
95
towards learner of the teacher are included.
96
the occupation of teaching and doing research in higher education as
satisfying as it must be" (p.39). Phenix (1975) describes the personal,
subjective, and intrinsic force that motivates the college teacher.
The Teacher Motivation in relation to the present study is
designed with nine dimensions viz., Classroom Teaching, School
Administration, Professional Pleasure, Climate Factors, Inter-personal
relations, Student behaviour, Working condition, Professional
development and Personal.
(1) Classroom Teaching: In this aspect the teaching performance of
the faculty members as well as their teacher activities and teaching
ability in the Classroom teaching are included.
(2) School Administration: This aspect disclosed the management of
the institution, implementation of policies of the administrators,
participation in the administrative activities of the institution are
included.
(3) Professional Pleasure: This aspect envisages the pleasure of
the teacher while teaching in the classroom, love of profession,
receiving appreciations from the students, guiding the students in the
right way, creation of inspiration among students etc., are discussed
with reference to the existing conditions as prevailed in the
institutions.
(4) Climate Factors: This aspect envisages regarding the facilities
that influence the Teachers and Students to perform more effective
and the basis how to achieve the goals successfully.
(5) Inter-Personal Relations: In aspect institutional relations with
the Parents, Students, Administrators and other aspects in relation to
academic aspects are included.
(6) Student Behaviour: This aspect disclosed the behavioural
97
attitude in relation to their shrewdness, discipline, participation in the
school activities, expression of their opinions are discussed.
(7) Working Conditions: In this aspect the teacher satisfaction in
relation to remuneration, acceptances of the teacher to reside in the
work area, planning of professional development are included.
(8) Professional Development: This is one of the most important
aspects of the present study of Teacher Motivation. In this aspect In-
service Training, possessing higher qualifications, implementation of
innovative practices in teaching and implementation of new
experiment methods of teaching are included.
(9) Personal: This aspect is confined to teacher’s personal
experiences in relation to his family, Classroom teaching, assessment
of student abilities, power of mind set adjustment while entering into
the classroom are discussed.
4.1.3: TEACHER SELF-EFFICACY:
The Teacher Self-efficacy is consists of forty items covering with
four dimensions as detailed below.
1.Mastery experiences: This is potentially the most powerful
for forming efficacy beliefs because it is direct information about
success. The performance accomplishments do not directly equate
with self-efficacy. Both situational (e.g., the complexity of the task)
and cognitive processing (e.g., the perception of one’s ability)
concerning the performance will affect the self-efficacy judgment and
belief.
2.Vicarious experiences or Modeling: Just as individuals do
not need to directly experience reinforced personal behaviours in order
to learn (they can vicariously learn by observing and modeling relevant
others who are reinforced), the same is true of acquiring efficacy
98
(Bandura, 2000).
3.Social Persuasion: Not as powerful a source of information as
the previous two and sometimes oversimplified as a ‘can-do’ approach,
people’s belief in their efficacy can be strengthened by respected,
competent others persuading them that they have what it tasks on this
particular task.
4.Physiological and Psychological arousal: People often rely
on how they feel, physically and emotionally, in order to assess their
capabilities. More than the other sources of information, if these are
negative this will generally greatly detract from efficacy. If these
physical and mental states are well off, they don’t necessarily process
as contributing much to the individual’s efficacy.
In this study an attempt is made to find whether Value behaviour
and Motivation of teachers have anything to do with Teacher Self-
efficacy or not. Thus this study attempts to explore the relationship
between Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-
efficacy. Efforts are made to justify the problem with the help of
statistical information presented in the following pages.
4.2.0: Definitions of the terms used:
In the present study, the investigator is concerned with Teacher
Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy.
Definitions of these constructs are dealt with.
4.2.1: Teacher:
The term teacher in this study is used to refer to Junior Colleges
in Vizianagaram District.
4.2.2: Teacher Value Behaviour:
The definition of Teacher Value behaviour is the teachers’ Work
centered, Learner Centered, Professional Centered, Adjustment
99
Centered and Educational Centered aspects.
4.2.3:Teacher Motivation:
The Teacher Motivation in the present study disclosed that
personal joy and pleasure that can be derived from the act of teaching
and the inter-personal communication of knowledge. All these are
depend on classroom, school administration, climatic factors of the
school, behaviour of the students, personal relations with colleagues
and students, working conditions, personal problems of the teacher.
Accordingly, the Teacher Motivation has defined in nine dimensions –
Classroom teaching, School administration, Professional pleasure,
Climate factors, Inter-personal relations, Student behaviour, Working
condition, Professional development, Personal.
4.2.4:Teacher Self-Efficacy:
The Teacher Self-efficacy is a state but not trait. Teacher Self-
efficacy is designed to make a probe to measure their efficacious
situations in relation to teaching learning process in classroom
teaching. This study is designed with four dimensions viz., Mastery
experience, Vicarious experience, Social experience and Physiological

4.4.0:Procedure adopted:
In order to test the hypotheses, the research is planned and
executed in three phases using and adoption of various Standardized
tools.
1. Development and standardization of the Scale of Dr.VSR,
Pakalapati’s (2004) Teacher Value Behaviour.
2. Development and standardization of Teacher Motivation Scale
of Dr.U.L.Narayan’s (1986) Teacher Motivation.
3. Measurement of Teacher Self-efficacy with the help of
Bandura’s (2000) ‘Cultivate Self-Efficacy for Personal and
Organizational Effectiveness’ contexture designed keeping the Teacher
in Indian scenario is make use of.
4.4.1: Selection of Items:
The investigator according to the aims and objectives of the
study prepares a large number of items. The items are prepared to
measure each of the tool inter and intra-dimensions. The information
in relation to the tools are prepared by collecting information from
various sources i.e., books, other standardized tests, discussion with
experts, professional journals etc. A thorough comparison is made
between the prepared items and corresponding items collected from
various sources. Thus the final form of items is prepared.
(a) Teacher Value Behaviour Scale consists of 50 statements as
per the earlier design of the previous researchers.
(b) Teacher Motivation Scale consists of 53 statements as per the
105
earlier design of the previous researchers – and
(c) Teacher Self-efficacy Scale consists of 46 statements initially
designed by the investigator.
These tools are supplemented by a careful study of related literature
and informal meetings with experienced teachers, head-teachers and
teacher educators. Thus the items in the above tools are finalized,
listed and arranged in related to the present study. These tools are
examined by the experts for item-relevance and usefulness and finally
concluded to retain the items as mentioned above. The distribution of
the selected tools for the pilot study is as follows.
4.4.2: Standardization of Teacher Value Behaviour Scale:
Table 4.1: Table showing the items and percentage of items in
provisional
Teacher Value Behaviour Scale
106
4.4.4: Scoring:
The responses are scored according to the key. For all positive
items score from 5 to 1 for the five responses i.e., SA: Strongly Agree;
A: Agree; N: Neutral; DA: Disagree; SDA: Strongly Disagree respectively
are given. For all negative statements scores 1 to 5 are given
respectively for SA, A, N, DA, SDA. The positive and negative items are
shown separately in this chapter. The maximum possible score is 250
and the minimum possible score is 50. High score indicates high
Teacher Value Behaviour, low score indicates low Teacher Value
Behaviour.
4.4.5: Item Analysis:
For the purpose of determining the degree to which each item is
effective in discriminating high and low Teacher Value Behaviour, an
item analysis of the data obtained from the above sample is under
taken by taking two extreme groups (high and Low). All the 50
responses are scored and scores are arranged in an order from highest
score to the lowest score. Then the upper 20% of the total responses
and lower 20% of the responses are taken into consideration for
measuring significance of difference of means to know the item
validity. Arithmetic means and Standard Deviations for all the 50 items
of the upper half and lower half are calculated. Critical Ratio is then
calculated for all the items between upper and lower half. If the value
of critical ratio of the item is greater than 1.98 (significant at 0.05 level
of significance) then the item is found valid and accepted. If the value
of critical ratio of the item is less than 1.98 then the item is considered
as invalid and rejected. The scale with all the accepted items is used
for final study.
The items retained after item analysis for the final study of
107
Teacher Value Behaviour is confirmed with 30 items. The following
table 4.2 shows the values of critical ratios of items.

4.4.6: Reliability:
The reliability of the scale is calculated by split-half method.
Odd-Even split is used in dividing the test into two halves. The
reliability co-efficient is found to be 0.832. This reliability co-efficient is
sufficiently large for us to assume that the present Teacher Value
Behaviour is highly reliable instrument is used in the present research.
4.4.7: Validation:
110
The validity of the present Teacher Value Behaviour Scale is
estimated by using the ‘known group technique’. The validity of the
scale is sought to be estimated from the Teacher Value Behaviour of
two groups of teachers – one of which is low competent teachers and
other high competent teachers. In the present study two groups of
teachers of 20 each was selected for administering the Teacher Value
Behaviour scale. One of the groups is low competent in their Value
Behaviour and this fact is know to the investigator in advance.
Similarly, the second group of 20 was known in advance to be high
competent in their Value Behaviour.
The tool administered to these two groups of teachers and ‘t’
value is calculated. The value of ‘t’ is found to be highly significant
and hence, the tool is believed to be a valid. The value of ‘t’ is
presented in table 4.4.

4.5.1: Selection of Items:
The investigator according to the aims and objectives of the
study prepares a large number of items. The items are prepared to
measure the Classroom Teaching, School Administration, Professional
Pleasure, Climate Factors, Inter-Personal Relations, Student Behaviour,
Working condition, Professional Development and Personal aspects of
the Teachers. These items are prepared by collecting information from
various sources i.e., books, other standardized tests, discussion with
experts, professional journals etc. A through comparison is made
between the prepared items, and corresponding items collected from
various sources. Thus the final form of the items is prepared. There
are 53 items. These 53 items are supplemented by a careful study of
related literature and informal meetings with experienced teachers,
head-teachers and teacher educators. Thus, the items are finalized,
listed and rearranged. Experts for item-relevance and usefulness
examine this list. Then language experts for grammatical soundness
examine the items. Finally 35 items are retained.
Instructions are typed on the cover page of the rating scale.
Similarly, instructions are given clearly to explain the purpose of the
study and what the subjects have to do. However, much care is taken
to check the ‘halo effect’. The distribution of 53 items selected for the
pilot study is as follows –

4.5.2: Scoring:
The same procedure, which is used to score the Teacher Value
Behaviour Scale, is adapted to Teacher Motivation Scale. Total number
113
of items included in this tool is 53. The maximum possible score is
265. The high score indicates high Teacher Motivation and low score
indicates low Teacher Motivation.
4.5.3: Item Analysis:
For the purpose of determining the degree to which each item is
effective in discriminating high and low Teacher Motivation, an item
analysis of the data obtained from the above sample is undertaken by
taking two extreme groups (high and low). All the 53 responses of the
150 subjects are scored and total scores are arranged in an order from
highest score to lowest score. Then the upper 20% of the total
responses and lower 20% of the total responses are taen into
consideration for measuring significance of difference of means to
know the item validity. Arithmetic Means, Standard Deviations for all
the 53 items of the upper half and lower half are calculated. Critical
Ratio value is then calculated for all the items between Upper and
Lower half. If the value of critical ratio of the items is greater than 1.98
(significant at 0.01 level of significance) then the item is found valid
and accepted. If the value of Critical Ratio value of the item is less
than 1.98 then the item is considered as invalid and rejected. The
scale with all the accepted items is used for final study.
The items retained after item analysis for the final study in
Teacher Motivation Scale are 35. Table 4.6 shows the values of Critical
ratios of items.

4.5.4: Reliability:
The reliability of the scale is calculated by split half method.
Odd-Even split is used in dividing the test into two halves. The
reliability co-efficient is found to be 0.878. The reliability co-efficient of
0.878 is sufficiently large for us to assume that the present Teacher
Motivation Scale is highly reliable instrument for measuring the
Teacher Motivation Scale.
4.5.5: Validation:
The validity of the present Teacher Motivation Scale is estimated
by using the ‘known group technique’. The validity of the scale is
estimated from the Teacher Motivation of two groups of teachers. One
of which is low teacher motivation and other is high motivation. In the
present study two groups of teachers of 20 each was selected for
administering the Teacher Motivation Scale. The first group of 20 is low
Teacher Motivation teachers and second group of 20 is high Teacher
Motivation teachers, and the investigator knows this fact in advance.
The tool is administered to these two groups of teachers and ‘t’
117
value is calculated. The value of ‘t’ is found to be highly significant
and hence the tool is believed to be a valid tool. The value of ‘t’ is
presented in the table 4.8.

4.6.1: Scoring:
The same procedure, which is used to score Teacher Value
Behaviour and Teacher Motivation inventories, is followed. The total
number of items in the Teacher Self-efficacy is 46. The maximum
possible score is 230 and the minimum possible score is 46. A high
score indicates high attitude and a low score indicates low attitude
towards Teacher Self-efficacy.
119
analysis of the data obtained from the above sample is under taken,
using extreme groups (high and low). All the 46 responses of the
subjects are scored and the scores are arranged in an order from
highest score to the lowest score. Then the upper 20% of the total
scores and Lower 20% of the total scores are taken into consideration
for measuring significance of difference of means to know the item
validity. Arithmetic Means and Standard Deviations for all the 46 items
of the upper and lower halves are calculated. Critical Ratio is, then,
calculated. Critical Ratio is, then, calculated for all the items between
upper and lower half. If the value of critical ratio of the item is greater
than 1.98 (significant at 0.01 level of significance) then the item is
found to be valid and accepted. If the value of critical ratio of the item
is less than 1.98 then the item is considered as invalid and rejected.
The accepted items of the scale are used in the final study.
The items retained after item analysis for the final study in
Teacher Self-efficacy Scale are 40. Table 4.10 discloses the values of
Critical Ratio for all the provisional items.

4.6.3: Reliability:
The reliability of the scale is calculated by split half method.
Odd-Even split is used in dividing the test into two halves. The
reliability of co-efficient is found to be 0.921. The reliability co-efficient
of 0.921 is sufficiently large for the investigator to assume that the
present Teacher Self-efficacy Scale is highly reliable instrument to
administer among the selected sample of teachers.
4.6.4: Validation:
The validity of the present Teacher Self-efficacy Scale estimated
by using the ‘known group technique’. The validity of the scale is
estimated from the attitude of two groups of teachers. One of which
consists of teachers with low Teacher Self-efficacy and other with high
Teacher Self-efficacy. In the present study two groups of teachers of 20
122
each is selected for administering the Teacher Self-efficacy scale. The
first group of 20 is low in Teacher Self-efficacy and second group of 20
is high in Teacher Self-efficacy, this fact is known to the researcher in
advance.
The tool is administered to these two groups of teachers and ‘t’
value is calculated. The value of ‘t’ is found to be highly significant
and hence, the tool is believed to be a valid tool. The value of ‘t’ is
presented in the Table 4.12.
The above table clearly disclosed that the obtain mean value of
High Teacher Self-efficacy (181.39) is higher than the mean value
(110.65) obtained by the Low Teacher Self-efficacy. The obtained C.R.
value 10.88 is significant at both the levels (i.e., 0.05 and 0.01 levels).
Hence, the null hypothesis formulated to that affect that the extent of
relationship between the above two categories is rejected.
4.6.5: Collection of Data:
After developing and standardizing the three tools of the study,
fresh and final scales are prepared for the final study with a personal
data page. These three standardized tools of the present study are
123
administered to 612 Junior College Teachers in Vizianagaram District of
Andhra Pradesh. For collecting the data the Investigator visited each
Institution and administered these three scales among the Teachers
personally. They are advised to put their name, Sex, Locality,
Qualification, Designation, Subject of Teaching, Professional
Experience, Marital Status, Type of Institution, Type of Status of the
Institution and Type of Management etc., in the space provided in the
personal data sheet of each scale.
Instructions are given in the first page of all the three tools. The
investigator requested the teachers to follow those instructions while
responding to the tools. Teachers are further advised not to leave any
item of the tool. Most of the teachers filled the tools on the spot and
returned to the investigator. All the three tools thus collected, are
scored according to the scoring procedure explained in the
development and standardization of tools.
4.6.6: Sample:
The sample selected for the investigation consisted of 612
samples of Junior College Teachers in Vizianagaram District of Andhra
Pradesh. Random sampling technique is followed to draw the sample
for the present study. The sample is categorized as Sex (Male and
Female), Locality (Rural and Urban), Qualification (Post-graduates, Post-
graduates with M.Phil/Ph.D.,, Post-graduates with B.Ed., and Post-
graduates with M.Ed., qualifications), Designation (Lecturers and
Principals), Subject of Teaching (Teaching Sciences, Teaching
Humanities and Teaching Languages), Experience (Below 10 years, 10

4.6.7:Analysis of Data:
The following statistical techniques are followed to analyze the
data for all the three scales.
Means and Standard Deviations for all the distributions are
calculated.
Pearson’s Product Moment Correlations are calculated for Odd
Even items of rating scales and their reliability indices are computed
by using Spearman Brown Prophecy Formula.
To find the relationship between (a) Teacher Value Behaviour; (b)
Teacher Motivation and (c) Teacher Self-efficacy ‘r’ values are
computed extensively. Co-efficient of correlation for all the dimensions
are also calculated and presented in Table form.
Critical Ratios are calculated for item analysis and to test the
subsidiary hypotheses.
127
ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA
This chapter is devoted for analysis and interpretation of results
of the present research. The results are presented and all the
hypotheses of the study are tested and verified. The implications of
the results are analyzed and interpreted in relation to the problem of
the study, immediately after each hypothesis is tested. The analysis of
results of any study should be based on suitable statistical treatment.
Further, the measurements of variables undertaken for the study
should be presented clearly and precisely. Accordingly, the results are
analyzed and presented in three phases.
The first phase deals with the testing of major hypotheses, the
second phase deals with testing of subsidiary hypotheses pertaining to
128
significance of difference between different demographic variables in
respect of three variables of the study and the third phase deals with
the testing of hypotheses pertaining to significance of difference
between high and low groups.
5.0: Verification of Major Hypotheses and Interpretation:
There are six major hypotheses in the present study. For testing
these hypotheses, coefficients of correlation are computed. The
calculations of ‘r’ values are done by product movement method
(Garrette, H.E, 1981). The significance of obtained ‘r’s is tested
against null hypotheses as given by Aggarwal, Y.P. (1990).
5.1:Verification of the First Hypothesis of the Study:
The first hypothesis of the study disclosed that ‘there is no
significant relationship between Teacher Value Behaviour and Teacher
Motivation’. This hypothesis is tested and shown in Table 5.1.

each other. Seah W.T. (2002) in his investigation made on ‘the
Perception of, and Interaction with, Value Differences by Immigrant
Teachers of Mathematics in Two Australian Secondary Classrooms’ The
research methodology adopts a qualitative approach incorporating
features of narrative analysis. While cultural differences may not
possibly be eliminated, immigrant teachers may empower themselves
by engaging in cultural interactions. Practical implications are
suggested. Bhattacharya (2000) established that intrinsic motivation is
essential for elevating level of teaching competence and improving
attitude towards teaching profession of primary teachers. Kukreti
(1994) worked to find out the motivational factors of a teaching job
which are correlates of competent teaching and which differentiate
competent and incompetent teachers.
The present findings are in conformity with the findings of the
above researches. So it can be said that teachers with high Teacher
Value Behaviour are supposed to be well motivated. The present
finding affirms the theoretical assumption that Teacher Value
Behaviour and Teacher Motivation are interdependent and interactive.

5.4:Verification of Fourth Hypothesis of the Study:
The fourth hypothesis of the study states that there is no
significant relationship between various dimensions of Teacher Value
Behaviour. This hypothesis is divided into ten parts for the
convenience of verification as follows
(1) There is no significant relationship between Work Centered and
Learner Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(2) There is no significant relationship between Work Centered and
Professional Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(3) There is no significant relationship between Work Centered and
Adjustment Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(4) There is no significant relationship between Work Centered and
Educational
Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(5) There is no significant relationship between Learner Centered and
Professional Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(6) There is no significant relationship between Learner Centered and
Adjustment Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(7) There is no significant relationship between Learner Centered and
Educational Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(8) There is no significant relationship between Professional Centered
and Adjustment Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(9) There is no significant relationship between Professional Centered
and Educational Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
(14) There is no significant relationship between Adjustment Centered
and Educational Centered aspects of Teacher Value Behaviour.
For the purpose of testing the above hypotheses, coefficients of
correlation between the various dimensions of Teacher Value
133
Behaviour, scores of Work Centered, Learner Centered, Professional
Centered, Adjustment Centered and Educational Centered are
computed. The ‘r’ values are presented in Table 5.4.

After testing all the sub-divided hypotheses, it is found that the
entire sub-divided hypotheses are significant and hence they are
rejected. Hence, the hypotheses between various dimensions of
Teacher Value Behaviour are rejected.

Development and Personal aspects of Teacher Motivation.
5.6 : Verification of Sixth Hypothesis of the Study:
The Sixth hypothesis of the study disclosed that there is no
significant relationship between the dimensions of Teacher Self-
efficacy. The hypothesis is divided into six parts for the purpose of
convenient verification as follows –
1. There is no significant relationship between Mastery experience and
Vicarious experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
2. There is no significant relationship between Mastery experience and
Social experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
3. There is no significant relationship between Mastery experience and
Physiological and Psychological experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
4. There is no significant relationship between Vicarious experience
and Social experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
5. There is no significant relationship between Vicarious experience
and Physiological and Psychological experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
6. There is no significant relationship between Social experience and
Physiological and Psychological experience of Teacher Self-efficacy.
For testing the above hypotheses, coefficients of correlation
between the various dimensions of Teacher self-efficacy are computed
and ‘t’ values are presented in Table 5.52.

investigator has opted to study the inter and intra relationship between
all the dimensions of Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and
Teacher Self-efficacy so as to understand how far each dimension
related to all other dimension of this study. The Dimensions of Teacher
Value behaviour (Work Centered; Learner Centered; Adjustment
Centered and Educational Centered), Teacher Motivation (Classroom
teaching; School Administration; Professional Pleasure; Climate Factors;
Inter-Personal relations; Student Behaviour; Working condition;
Professional Development and Personal) and Teacher Self-efficacy
(Mastery experience, Vicarious experience, Social experience and
physiological and Psychological experience) are computed. The
coefficients of correlation between all the dimensions of Teacher Value
Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy calculated and
the values of ‘r’ show in table 5.60. Inter and intra relationship
between all the dimensions of the three variables of the present study
are discussed and interpreted in the following pages. The
interpretations of ‘r’ are in accordance to the guidelines framed by
Henry, E. Garrette (1981).

5.9.0:Verification of Subsidiary Hypotheses
pertaining to High and Low groups:
Out of thirty eight subsidiary hypotheses of the present study,
three hypothesis are pertaining to significance of difference of
difference of means between high and low groups of Teacher Value
Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy. Teachers,
whose score is more than the mean value of Teacher Value Behaviour,
Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy are classified into high
group, and those whose score is less than the mean value are included
in low group. For verifying these hypotheses, significance of difference
of means between high and low groups of Teacher Value Behaviour in
rest of Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy; high and low
groups of Teacher Motivation in respect of Teacher Value Behaviour and
Teacher Self-efficacy and high and low groups of Teacher Self-efficacy
in respect of Teacher Value Behaviour and Teacher Motivation are
computed. The results of High and Low of these three categories are
verified with reference to the statistical reports. In this part subsidiary
hypotheses eleven, twelve and thirteen pertaining to high and low
groups are verified.
5.9.1: Verification of Subsidiary hypothesis and
interpretation of Teacher Value Behaviour
Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy:
The subsidiary hypothesis of this study disclosed that there is no
significant difference between high and low Teacher Value Behaviour in
respect of Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy. This
hypotheses are categorized into three parts for the purpose of
convenience and verification as follows –
375
(1) There is no significant difference between High and Low
Teacher Value Behaviour in respect of Teacher Motivation.
(2) There is no significant difference between High and Low
Teacher Value Behaviour in respect of Teacher Self-efficacy.
(3) There is no significant difference between High and Low
Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-efficacy.
Verification of first hypothesis that ‘there is no significant difference
between high and low Teacher Value Behaviour in respect of Teacher
Motivation’ is verified and presented in Table 5.288.
Table 5.288 Table showing the difference of means in between high
and low

Tesides testing the hypothesis, the researcher is intended to find
out the difference between high and Low Teacher Value Behaviour in
respect of all the dimensions of Teacher Motivation.
Verification of the value of ‘t’ between High and Low Teacher
Value Behaviour in respect of all dimensions of Teacher Motivation
presented in Table 5.289.

Classroom Teaching (CT = 4.99), School Administration (SA = 2.64),
Professional Pleasure (PP = 4.97), Climate Factors (CF = 3.68), Inter-
Personal Relations (IPR = 1.98), Student Behaviour (SB = 4.72) and
Personal (P = 3.58) are highly significant in respect of Teacher
Motivatioindicates that teachers with high Teacher Value Behaviour do
differ significantly in respect of all the dimensions of Teacher
Motivation. The obtained ‘t’ value of High and Low Teacher Value
Behaviour in relation to all dimensions of Teacher Motivation is more
than 1.96 and 2.58, which is significant at 0.05 and 0.01 levels
respectively. Hence, the hypothesis rejected.
377
Verification is Second hypothesis that ‘t’ there is no significant
difference between high and low Teacher Value Behaviour in respect of
Teacher Self-efficacy’ presented in Table 5.290.

nullhypothesis is rejected.
The above table clearly indicates that teachers with High Teacher
Value Behaviour (200.85) do differ from Teachers with Low Teacher
Value Behaviour (178.34). It is further stated that the teahers with
High Teacher Value Behaviour have more Teacher Efficacy than that of
Low Teacher Value Behaviour. The obtained ‘t’ value 10.42 is more
tham 1.96 and 2.58, which is significant at 0.05 and 0.01 levels.
Verification of hypothesis that the significance of difference of
means between high and low Teacher Value Behaviour in relation with
all the dimensions of Teacher Self-efficacy presented in Table 5.291.

1.96 and 2.58, which is significant at 0.05 and 0.01 levels respectively.
Hence, the hypothesis is rejected. Whereas the High and Low Teacher
Value Behaviour in respect of dimension Social experience (1.89) of
Teacher Efficacy is not corroborated. Hence, the hypothesis is
retained.
This shows that the Teachers are significantly differed with high
and low Teacher Value Behaviour in respect of dimensions ‘Master
experience’, ‘Vicarious experience’ and ‘Physiological and
Psychological experience’. It is further observed that Teachers of high
379
and low Teacher Value Behaviour have more favourable towards the
dimensions ‘Master experience’, Vicarious experience’ and
‘Physiological and Psychological experience’ when compared with
Teachers of Low Teacher Value Behaviour. Whereas no significant
difference is found between the High and Low Teacher Value Behaviour
in respect of the dimensions ‘Social experience’ of Teacher Self-
sefficacy.

The sample selected for the investigation consists of 612
teachers of different Junior Colleges in Vizianagaram District of
Andhra Pradesh. The researcher has adopted the random sampling
technique to obtain the data from the selected sample.
Analysis of Data:
The following statistical techniques are followed to analyze the
data of the present investigation.
(1) Means and Standard Deviations for all the distributions are
calculated.
(2) Pearson’s Product Moment Correlations are calculated for Even
387
and Odd items of rating scales and their reliability indices are
computed by using Spearman Brown Prophecy formula.
(3) To find out the relationship between (i) Teacher Value
Behaviour, (ii)Teacher Motivation, (iii) Teacher Self-efficacy, ‘r’
values are computed extensively. Co-efficient of correlations
are also calculated for all the dimensions.
(4) Critical Ratios are calculated for item analysis and to test the
subsidiary hypotheses.

Research Limitations:
This is limited to only Teachers of different category Junior
Colleges situated in different areas under different management in
Vizianagaram District of Andhra Pradesh.
This study is made on the Teachers Teaching alone and the
supporting staff like Physical Education, Craft, Librarians etc., are not
taken into consideration while administering the questionnaire.
Of many dimensions of Teacher Value Behaviour, the dimensions
‘Work Centered’, ‘Learner Centered’, ‘Professional Centered’,
‘Adjustment Centered’, and ‘Educational Centered’, aspects are only
taken into consideration for the purpose of present research.
Of many dimensions of Teacher Motivation, the dimensions
‘Classroom Teaching’, ‘School Administration’, ‘Professional Pleasure’,
‘Climate Factors’, ‘Inter-Personal Relations’, ‘Student Behaviour’,
‘Working Condition’, ‘Professional Development’ and ‘Personal’ aspects
are only taken into consideration for the present research study.
Similarly, of many dimensions of Teacher Self-efficacy, the
investigator confined to the dimensions of ‘Mastery Experience’,
‘Vicarious Experience’, ‘Social Experience’ and ‘Physiological and
Psychological Experience’ aspects are only considered in the present
study.
Suggestions for further Research:
This study may be extended to higher education i.e., Degree
Colleges, Professional Colleges and University Departments.
Relationship between Teacher Value Behaviour and Teacher
407
Competency and Teacher Attitude may be studied.
Similarly, an investigation is needed to study the relationship
between Teacher Self-efficacy, Work Orientation as its impact on
academic achievement.
An analytical study of relationship between Teacher Motivation,
Teacher Effectiveness and its impact on Classroom Climate may be
undertaken.
Educational Implications of the Study:
The role of Teacher is pivotal in any educational agency. This
study reveals Teacher Value Behaviour played a predominant role in
teaching learning process. The dimensions of Teacher Value Behaviour
‘Work Centered’, ‘Learner Centered’, ‘Professional Centered’,
‘Adjustment Centered’ and ‘Educational Centered aspects, which
influence the teaching. The teacher in order to develop his Value
Behaviour he has to concentrate his attention towards these aspects.
Hence, Value Behaviour played pivotal role in the teaching learning
process.
Another major educational implication of the study is that the
Teacher Motivation is considered as an important factor, which in turn
motivate better in the classroom teaching. This study disclosed that
the Teacher Motivation covered with dimensions ‘Classroom Teaching’,
‘School Administration’, ‘Professional Pleasure’, ‘Climate Factors’,
‘Inter-Personal Relations’, ‘Student Behaviour’, ‘Working condition’,
‘Professional Development’ and ‘Personal’ aspects, which influence
teacher better motivated and maintain cordial relations with students
and staff in all academic activities of the institution.
Further, another major implication of the study is that Teacher
Self-efficacy also a factor to reckon to improve effectiveness in Teacher.
408
The Teacher Self-efficacy consists of four dimensions viz., ‘Mastery
experience’, ‘Vicarious experience’, ‘Social experience’ and
‘Physiological and Psychological experience’, which in turn influence on
teacher to develop his teacher characteristics and his various
experiences helped him becoming an effective teacher in the society.
Thus the study envisages that there is significant relationship
between Teacher Value Behaviour, Teacher Motivation and Teacher Self-
efficacy.
