Data Collection Instrument

The purpose of this study is to examine the self-efficacy perception levels of science teachers for assessment literacy in terms of various variables by determining them and to reveal the correlation between them. The research was designed in the scanning model, one of the non-experimental quantitative methods. The sample of the study consists of 236 teachers who are in service in the secondary schools affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in the provinces and districts of Elazig in the 2019-2020 academic year. “Self-efficacy perception scale for assessment and evaluation” was applied as data collection instrument in the study. In the analysis of the data obtained through the data collection instrument, in addition to descriptive statistics, t-test and one-way analysis of variance were used for independent samples. As a result of the research, it was determined in the comparisons that the self-efficacy of the teachers and their sub-dimensions for assessment literacy presented a significant difference in favor of the female teachers according to the gender variable. Moreover, it was concluded that the self-efficacy of the teachers and their sub-dimensions for assessment literacy significantly differ in favor of the teachers who received postgraduate education according to the educational status variable. Whereas there was no statistically significant difference in self-efficacy for assessment literacy according to the seniority variable, it was observed that the sub-dimensions of self-efficacy for assessment literacy were significantly different in favor of the teachers who were between 1-10 years of seniority according to the seniority variable. Some recommendations were provided within the scope of the results obtained at the end of the research.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study is to examine and compare the relationship between self efficacy and life satisfaction scores in terms of age, gender, education level in cycling and trekking individuals. The research was conducted using descriptive scanning model. The sample of the study was individuals who are actively cycling and trekking in the province of Mersin. 51 women and 105 men participated in the research as voluntary.(Xage=38.79±14,39). Data were derived from participants by applying “Self-Efficacy Scale” which is adapted by Köseoğlu,Gerçek, Yılmaz, Soran (2007) and “Life Satisfaction Scale” which is adapted by Yetim(1993). Descriptive statistics, independent groups T-test, one -way ANOVA analyses and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the data. The total average of self-efficacy and life satisfaction scores of cycling and trekking individuals are high and in order of 25,03±5,46 and 31,36±5,36. The findings of the research showed that there is a significant correlation between self-efficacy and life satisfaction scores (r= ,36; p<0,01). According to T-test results, there is no significant difference between mean scores of self-efficacy and life satisfaction in terms of age, gender and education levels in all groups.(p >,05).According to the results of research, life satisfaction and self-efficacy average scores of individuals who regularly cycling and trekking were found to be high. When the self-efficacy and life satisfaction average scores were examined, no significant difference was found in terms of gender, age and educational status in terms of these variables. While the self-efficacy scores of the participants increased, life satisfaction scores increased.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu araştırmada, bisiklet ve trekking sporu yapan bireylerin öz-yeterlik ve yaşam doyumu puanlarının cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu değişkenleri açısından incelenmesi ve katılımcıların öz-yeterlik ve yaşam doyumu puanları arasındaki ilişkinin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma betimsel tarama modeli kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın örneklemini, Mersin ilinde aktif olarak bisiklet ve trekking sporu yapan 51 kadın, 105 erkek toplam 156 (Xyaş= 38,79 + 14,39) katılımcı oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Köseoğlu, Gerçek, Yılmaz, Soran (2007) tarafından Türkçe’ ye uyarlanan “Algılanan Öz-Yeterlik Beklentisi Ölçeği” ve Yetim (1993) tarafından Türkçe`ye uyarlanan “Yaşam Doyumu Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel istatistikler, bağımsız gruplar için “T testi”, tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) ve pearson korelasyon katsayısı kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre bisiklet ve trekking sporu yapan bireylerin öz-yeterlik puan ortalamaları (31,36± 5,36) ve yaşam doyumu puan ortalamalarının (25,03± 5,46) yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca çalışmaya katılan bireylerin öz-yeterlik ve yaşam doyumu puanları arasında pozitif bir korelasyon saptanmıştır (r=,36; p<,01). Katılımcıların cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu ve spor dalı değişkenine göre öz-yeterlik ve yaşam doyumu puanlarının farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığına bağımsız gruplar için t testi ile bakılmış ve tüm gruplarda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır (p>,05). Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, düzenli bisiklet süren ve trekking yapan bireylerin yaşam doyumu ve öz yeterlik ortalama puanlarının yüksek olduğu gözlenmiştir. Öz yeterlik ve yaşam doyumu ortalama puanları incelendiğinde cinsiyet, yaş ve eğitim durumu yönünden bu değişkenler açısından anlamlı bir farka rastlanmamıştır. Katılımcıların öz yeterlik puanları artarken, yaşam doyumu puanlarının da arttığı gözlenmiştir.

One of the most unwanted and unavoidable consequences of the economic recession is the high rate of unemployment. Graduate students in Croatia are faced with lack of employment possibilities, and for some of them the self-employment looks like a good solution. In this paper, we investigate attitudes and intentions of graduate students at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Agriculture regarding to selfemployment. Most of the surveyed students are in the age between 21 and 25 years, and they have already got some kind of knowledge about entrepreneurship during the formal education. In addition, majority of them have the experience of part-time jobs. The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) model was used to find out to which extent students’ attitudes and experience influence their expressed self-employment intentions. The results revealed that Zagreb students’ scores are close but somewhat lower than the same scores found in the comparable study from Australia. This goes for the investigated variables: (1) previous entrepreneurial experience (PEE), perceived desirability of selfemployment (PDSE), perceived entrepreneurial self-efficacy (PESE) and self-employment intentions (SEI). It was found that the score on the PEE is significantly related to scores on the PDSE (p=0.000), and PESE (p=0.000), which means that the experience positively influence respondents’ attitudes on self-employment and self-efficacy. There is also a statistically significant difference in the on the SEI with respect to the PDSE (ANOVA F=9.804, p=0.000): respondents that consider self-employment more desirable expressed higher intention to perform it. The PDSE was found as the most influencing model variable in regards to the self-employment intention. The results points out the importance of previous experience, role models and positive attitudes towards self-employment in the process of the entrepreneurship development in young, educated population.

Objectives: Self-efficacy is an important factor in determining the ability of students to execute tasks or skills needed in the implementation of interprofessional learning (IPL). This study aimed to identify levels of self-efficacy with regards to IPL skills among undergraduate healthcare students and to investigate differences according to gender, programme of study and year of study. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted between January and March 2018 at the International Islamic University Malaysia, Kuantan, Malaysia. The Self-Efficacy for Interprofessional Experiential Learning scale was used to evaluate the self-efficacy of 336 students from five faculties including nursing, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and allied health sciences. Results: Significant differences in self-efficacy scores for the interprofessional interaction subscale were identified according to programme of study, with pharmacy students scoring significantly lower than allied health students (mean score: 54.1 ± 10.4 versus 57.4 ± 10.1; P = 0.014). In addition, there was a significant difference in self-efficacy scores for the interprofessional interaction subscale according to year of study, with first-year students scoring significantly lower compared to fifth-year students (mean score: 52.8 ± 10.4 versus 59.9 ± 11.9; P = 0.018). No statistically significant differences in self-efficacy scores were identified with regards to gender or for the interprofessional team evaluation and feedback subscale. Conclusion: These findings may contribute to the effective implementation of IPL education in healthcare faculties. Acknowledging the influence of self-efficacy on the execution of IPL skills is crucial to ensure healthcare students are able to adequately prepare for future interprofessional collaboration in real clinical settings.

This study attempts to investigate through causal-comparative research whether socio-scientific argumentation processes of prospective science teachers (PSTs) who had high and low socio-scientific argumentation skills differed from each other in terms of metacognition. The research was conducted with a total of 45 PSTs, 24of whom had high socio-scientific argumentation skills, and 21 had low socio-scientific argumentation skills. Data were gathered using qualitative and quantitative methods. Research results indicated that the PSTs with high socio-scientific argumentation skills displayed more metacognitive behaviors when compared to the PSTs with low socio-scientific argumentation skills and that they used more metacognitive strategies with regard to many components such as planning, decision-making, evaluation, monitoring, and organizing. Furthermore, a statistically significant difference was detected between the scores of the PSTs' metacognitive awareness skills in favor of the PSTs with high socio-scientific argumentation skills. These results demonstrated that the two groups with different socio-scientific argumentation skills differed from each other in terms of metacognition and that the PSTs with high socio-scientific argumentation skills were better in regard with metacognition.

This study investigated the effect of self-efficacy on self-employment intentions of recent graduates. Using the descriptive survey research design, the study population includes National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members of Ojo Local Government area of Lagos state. A sample of 130 was selected using the purposive sampling technique. The formulated hypotheses were tested using the simple linear regression and the independent sample t-test. The results showed that there was a statistically significant influence of self-efficacy on self-employment intention of Corps members of Ojo local government, Lagos state. A significant regression coefficient was found F (1.128)=29.72, p<.05), with R2 of .19. This presupposes that19.0% of the variance in self-employment intentions is as a result of the self-efficacy of recent graduates. Also, a statistically significant difference in the self-employment intentions were found between male and female corps members (tcal(128) = 2.11 is greater than ttab=1.98, p < .05). The study therefore recommended, amongst others, that institutions and the government should educate and devise a means by which they can increase the level of graduates and students’ self-efficacy which in turn will help shape their intention towards shaping career options after graduation. Similarly, effective entrepreneurship education and training for students and graduates to enhance their efficacy in performing specific tasks and roles of an entrepreneur will go a long way in boosting their self-employment intention and also aids them towards post graduate job creation ability rather than job seekers

Abstract Backgroundwe combined anatomy with imaging, transformed the 2D information of various imaging techniques into 3D information, and form the assessment system of real medical imaging cases in order to make up for the deficiencies in the current teaching of the medical imaging technology students. MethodsA total of 460 medical imaging students were selected and randomly divided into two groups. The research group received the teaching of the fusion of the original CT and MR data 3D model and the original image combined with 3D anatomical image. Statistical analysis Academic self-efficacy scale and Self-directed learning ability scale was adopted by self-directed learning evaluation scale between two groups.ResultsCompare the theoretical scores and case analysis scores of the two groups. The scores of the study and control groups were significantly higher than those of the control group.Before the experiment, no significant difference was detected in the self-efficacy of learning ability and learning behavior between the two groups , while after the experiment, these differences between the two groups were statistically significan. Moreover, the learning ability self-efficacy and learning behavior of the two groups of students after the experiment was significantly higher than that before the experiment. The self-efficacy of the learning behavior of the control group was higher after the experiment than that before the experiment, albeit the difference was not statistically significant . ConclusionsThe modern, information-based and humanized experimental teaching mode will be constantly improved under the support of PACS system in order to optimize the medical imaging teaching activities for the development of modern medical education.
