The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), generativity and self-efficacy, identifying different profiles of emotional intelligence. 834 secondary school teachers participated in the study by completing the Trait Meta-Mood Scale–24 (TMMS–24), the Loyola Generativity Scale and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. Cluster analysis identified four EI profiles: the first with high scores in attention and low scores in repair, the second with high scores in all dimensions of EI, the third with low scores in all EI dimensions and a fourth profile with low scores in attention and high scores in repair. Results showed significant statistical differences between the EI profiles found and the different dimensions of generativity and self-efficacy. Logistic regression analysis showed that EI was a statistically significant predictor of generativity, since teachers with high EI scores were more likely to present high scores in positive generativity and self-efficacy and lower probability of presenting high scores in generative doubts.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of teachers’ perception on trust over their willingness to exercise organisational citizenship behaviours (OCB) using self-efficacy as a mediator. Design/methodology/approach Usable questionnaires were collected from 411 teachers in secondary schools. A two-stage analytic approach was used to analyse the data. Findings The results indicated that trust and teachers’ self-efficacy dimensions (general teaching and personal teaching) are positively related to OCB. Additionally, trust in the principal, colleagues and clients are predicted to have indirect influence on OCB through self-efficacy. Practical implications Teachers’ personal sense of efficacy is largely dependent on the amount of efforts devoted in their teaching, their decision-making ability and the degree of persistency in solving problematic issues. School management and policy makers are urged to develop effective human resources initiatives and programmes that can create a trusting relationship in the organisation and enhance teachers’ self-efficacy. These may include the socialisation programmes that can inculcate teachers’ inner natures, confidence and interpersonal skills when directed towards perceived abilities in given specific tasks and responsibilities to make a significant impact on OCB. Apart from this, the school administrator is advised to offer relevant training and workshops that able to enhance the efficacy level of teachers. Originality/value This study explored how teachers’ self-efficacy was related to trust and OCB. Teachers’ positive behaviours enable them to have greater belief in their capability of handling pressures and crises. The study contributes to the current body of literature and creates a comprehensive theoretical framework for teachers to be involved in OCB. Besides, these unique findings served as a reference to management of any school to better understand the importance of trust in the school and how it relates to teacher self-efficacy, which, in turn nurture the citizenship behaviour in workplace.

In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of teachers who lack motivation and self-efficacy in carrying out their duties. This factor causes a significant decline in school performance and productivity. Therefore, by knowing the level of teacher motivation and the level of self-efficacy of teachers, then the recommendations required by the government to produce quality and high-performing teachers will be known more clearly. Thus, the issue of producing quality and high-performing teachers are used to answer research questions and fill the research spaces found in this study. This study aims to identify the relationship between motivation and self-efficacy of teachers in High-Performance Secondary Schools, Cluster Schools of Excellence, and also Ordinary Day Schools in the state of Penang. A quantitative approach was used in the data collection process of this study. The study instrument consisted of three parts; namely demographics, teacher motivation, and self-efficacy of secondary school teachers. The study sample consisted of 122 secondary school teachers in three schools in the state of Penang. Quantitative data were analyzed using various tests, namely the Independent T-Sample test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation analysis using SPSS software. The findings of the study indicate that there are significant differences in teacher motivation based on teacher age category and teacher tenure. The findings of the study also showed that there were also significant differences in self-efficacy based on length of service. The correlation analysis test also showed that there was a significant relationship between teacher motivation and self-efficacy with a weak magnitude. Therefore, teacher motivation and teacher self-efficacy need attention as it is able to increase efficiency among teachers while improving the quality of the education system.

Abstract. The Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale (TSES) is a widely accepted and enthusiastically used measurement instrument. Unfortunately, little firm evidence is available to support its factorial structure. The article reports on the results of the TSES administered to large representative samples of primary (2,083) and lower-secondary school teachers (2,382) in Poland, along with the results of reanalyzed US data, based on which the scale was developed. The results support TSES as a reliable instrument applicable across countries. However, they also highlight the importance of analyzing the factorial structure of the scale with each application, as it may require modifications when administered to different samples. Additionally, moderate evidence was found in Polish data for TSES to be invariant between primary and lower-secondary school teachers.
