Data were elicited through a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics (independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance and multiple regression analysis. The research questions were answered and the hypotheses were tested at 0.05 levels of significance. Results show that there is a positive correlation between educational qualification and administrative effectiveness of librarians in the South-South universities of Nigeria. Secondly, a significant result was obtained for gender as a predictor of administrative effectiveness of librarians.

Through the purposive sampling design, a total of 151 teachers that teaching at 14 primary schools in the island zone was involved in this study. Descriptive and inference statistics were used to analyze the data and to present the findings of the study. The data were analyzed by using Multiple Regression Analysis. The findings show that the level of teachers’ efficacy (M = 7.45, SD = .86) and teachers' metacognition awareness (M = 4.11, SD = .40) are at a high and positive level. The results of the multiple regression analysis showed that only one dimension of the constructs of the teachers’ efficacy: teaching strategies (β = .591, t = 5.655, p <.05) found to be able to contribute significant predictor value to teacher metacognition awareness and thus reject the null hypothesis.
