A mixed-methods design collected data from 144 teachers in an urban school district using a 36-item survey plus interviews. Teacher measures combined the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale—Short Form with the Principal Leadership Questionnaire to assess principals’ leadership behaviors and teachers’ efficacy. Findings show a statistically significant relationship, offering leadership practices that can strengthen teacher efficacy and support school improvement goals.","Teacher Self-Efficacy and Principal Leadership  \nBehaviors  \nChristian Stevenson Winn  \nThomas L. Cothern  \nRenee Lastrapes  \nAmy Orange  \nUniversity of Houston-Clear Lake  \nMore than 30 years ago, the concept of teacher efficacy, teachers’ confidence and belief in their ability to promote students’ learning (Protheroe, 2008), was first discussed as an imperative in educational outcomes. The impact of school leadership on teacher efficacy was soon discovered as a component to overall teacher effectiveness (Gallante, 2015). While many studies of each factor have been conducted in isolation, few studies have directly examined the relationship between teacher efficacy and principal leadership behaviors (Blase & Blase, 1999). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between principals’ leadership practices and teachers’ efficacy. In this mixed-methods study, 144 teacher participants from schools located inan urban school district responded to a 36-item survey instrument and participated in an interview to measure and assess teacher effectiveness and efficacy, as well as the leadership behaviors of their principals. The survey instrument administered to teachers included the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale—Short Form (Tschannen-Moran & Woolfolk-Hoy, 2001) combined with the Principal Leadership Questionnaire (Jantzi & Leithwood, 1996). Teacher participants completed this questionnaire to measure their respective principals’ leadership behaviors. Results revealed a statistically significant relationship between the teachers’ efficacy and principals’ leadership behaviors. These findings offer new insights to teachers, principals and other school leaders. Additionally, those who support principals will also gain new leadership practices to positively impact teacher efficacy.  \nICPEL Education Leadership Review, Vol. 22, No. 1– December, 2021 ISSN: 1532-0723 © 2021 International Council of Professors of Educational Leadership  \nWhen the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) outlined it principles for effective school improvement, the focus on high-quality leadership and teaching was at the top of the list (Council of Chief State School Officers, 2017) . Their 10 principles explain the recommended systems for states to follow under the Every Student Succeeds Act, which called for strong teachers in every classroom and entailed innovative approaches for states and school districts to support talented educators (Council of Chief State School Officers, 2017) . One of the improvement principles CCSSO identified in its list was the focus on effective leaders and teachers with the talent needed to transform low performing schools. Therefore, the instructional leadership that teachers receive from principals, and the effectiveness of their principals’ daily practices, is critical to the enhancement of teaching and learning (Cagle & Hopkins, 2009). Teacher efficacy has been a vital element of teacher effectiveness, and its role in teaching and learning remains of interest to researchers and practitioners (Hoy & Spero, 2005) . Moreover, teacher efficacy affects teaching and learning, according to Hoy and Spero (2005), and teachers, administrators, and policy makers continue to be interested in its development, how it is supported, and the factors that diminish it. Researchers have found compelling relationships between various aspects of leadership and teacher quality (Kelley et al., 2005; Waters & Cameron, 2007), and their associations with overall school effectiveness (Waters et al., 2003). Teacher efficacy and leadership behaviors are complex topics that have been studied individually using various methodologies to resolve many questions. Research studies have directly examined the relationship between teacher self-efficacy and principal leadership behaviors and the impact of those behaviors on teacher practice (Blase & Blase, 1999) .  \nEffective Leadership  \nSecond only to teaching, leadership is the most crucial com","cbCaiaQTRPjKkeiY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaQTRPjKkeiY","pdf",300879,"English","en",105,"# Teacher Self-Efficacy and Principal Leadership Behaviors\n## Effective Leadership\n## The Nature of Self-Efficacy\n## Self-Efficacy Theory Applied to Teaching","[{\"question\":\"What is the study’s main purpose?\",\"answer\":\"To examine the relationship between principals’ leadership practices and teachers’ efficacy.\"},{\"question\":\"How were teachers’ efficacy and principals’ leadership behaviors measured?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers completed a 36-item survey using the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale—Short Form and the Principal Leadership Questionnaire.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the results show about principal leadership and teacher efficacy?\",\"answer\":\"The study found a statistically significant relationship between teachers’ efficacy and principals’ leadership behaviors.\"}]","Teacher Self-Efficacy and Principal Leadership Behaviors | PDF",1792092309,48,{"code":4,"msg":81,"data":82},"ok",{"site_id":74,"language":73,"slug":83,"title":65,"keywords":84,"description":66,"schema_data":85,"social_meta":139,"head_meta":141,"extra_data":143,"updated_unix":144},"teacher-self-efficacy-and-principal-leadership-behaviors","",{"@graph":86,"@context":138},[87,101,121],{"@type":88,"itemListElement":89},"BreadcrumbList",[90,94,96,99],{"item":91,"name":92,"@type":93,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":95,"name":9,"@type":93,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":97,"name":40,"@type":93,"position":98},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":100,"name":65,"@type":93,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/teacher-self-efficacy-and-principal-leadership-behaviors/601276/",{"url":100,"name":65,"@type":102,"image":103,"author":108,"headline":65,"publisher":110,"fileFormat":113,"inLanguage":73,"description":66,"dateModified":114,"datePublished":115,"encodingFormat":113,"isAccessibleForFree":116,"interactionStatistic":117},"DigitalDocument",{"url":104,"@type":105,"width":106,"height":107},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/teacher-self-efficacy-and-principal-leadership-behaviors/601276.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":63,"@type":109},"Person",{"url":91,"name":111,"@type":112},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-28","2026-10-15",true,{"@type":118,"interactionType":119,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":120},"ViewAction",{"@type":122,"mainEntity":123},"FAQPage",[124,130,134],{"name":125,"@type":126,"acceptedAnswer":127},"What is the study’s main purpose?","Question",{"text":128,"@type":129},"To examine the relationship between principals’ leadership practices and teachers’ efficacy.","Answer",{"name":131,"@type":126,"acceptedAnswer":132},"How were teachers’ efficacy and principals’ leadership behaviors measured?",{"text":133,"@type":129},"Teachers completed a 36-item survey using the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale—Short Form and the Principal Leadership Questionnaire.",{"name":135,"@type":126,"acceptedAnswer":136},"What did the results show about principal leadership and teacher efficacy?",{"text":137,"@type":129},"The study found a statistically significant relationship between teachers’ efficacy and principals’ leadership behaviors.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":100,"og:type":140,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":111,"og:description":66},"article",{"robots":142,"canonical":100},"index,follow",{"doc_id":61,"site_id":74},1792160759]
