Abstract

This study was designed as a qualitative–quantitative triangulationresearch, one of the mixed method designs in which the data are collectedconcurrently, with the purpose of examining the pre-service teachers’ componentsof self-efficacy beliefs in science teaching. The study was carried out with theparticipation of 189 pre-service science teachers. Data of the study was collectedusing a “Personal Information Form”, the “Self-Efficacy Scale for Science Teaching”,and an “Unstructured Questionnaire” consisting of four open-ended questions. Sincethe quantitative data obtained from the research fulfilled the assumptions ofparametric test, the descriptive statistics were analyzed using independent samplest-Test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The qualitative data was analyzedusing content analysis. Based on the analysis results obtained from the quantitativedata, it was found that whereas the pre-service teachers’ mean scores for the SelfEfficacy Scale for Science Teaching did not differ significantly in terms of gender,they differed significantly in terms of level of grade, whether selected thedepartment willfully and career plan. The results obtained from the qualitative datawas evaluated under four themes: Verbal persuasion, direct experiences, indirectexperiences and emotional state.
