In order to collect data, a scale with two subscales – behavioural and cognitive – was developed. The data were analysed through SPSS 17, and arithmetic mean, standard deviation, t-test and one-way analysis of variance (One Way Anova) were used.

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility levels of physical education and sports teacher candidates. The universe of the study consisted of 480 teacher candidates studying in the physical education and sports teaching departments of the sports sciences faculties within Selçuk, Erciyes, Süleyman Demirel and Mehmet Akif Ersoy Universities, and the sample group consisted of 192 volunteers from the specified population. Participants in the study were asked to fill in a personal information form, academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility scales. IBM SPSS 22.0 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) statistical package program was used to analyze the data. Arithmetic means and standard deviations of the scores of the volunteers from the scales were presented as X±Sd. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Analysis was applied to reveal the relationship of the data obtained from the scales. The value of p<0,05 was considered significant. As a result, it was determined that the academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility levels of physical education and sports teacher candidates were above average. A moderate positive correlation was found between academic self-efficacy and alternatives and control subtitles of cognitive flexibility and total of cognitive flexibility. It is thought that this situation is due to the ability of physical education and sports teacher candidates to transfer their experiences in sports life to their education life.

Teacher’s self-efficacy has been linked with their positive performance and it starts developing in their study time at university. Therefore, curriculum at university plays an important role to create a gradual increase of the student teacher’s self-efficacy. So the students with higher academic year should have a better level of self-efficacy. This research aimed at finding out the efficacy for student engagement, instructional strategy, and classroom management of the English Education students in four different years of intake. The study was conducted in one of the reputable private Universities in Makassar, Indonesia. A Short Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (Tschannen-Moran &amp; Woolfolk Hoy, 2001) was employed as questionnaire tool to collect data. The data obtained from 122 students was computed using SPSS with non-parametric test. The result indicated that the lowest three aspects of self-efficacy level were found in the last two years of their study whereas the highest self-efficacy level was found in the first two years students. This research suggests the importance of modifying a curriculum which can assure that the self-efficacy increase during their academic study.
