relationship between the school climate percepti-ons and academic self-efficacy
beliefs of prospective teachers. The participants for the quantita-tive part of
this study, which employed a mixed-method design, comprised 55 prospective
teac-hers, while the qualitative part included 12. The school climate perceptions
of the prospective teachers were measured using the School Climate Scale for
University Students, and their academic self-efficacies were measured using the
Academic Self-Efficacy Scale; a semi-structured interview form was created for
the focus group interviews. Multiple correlation (Pearson Correlation
Coefficient) and hierarchical regression techniques, as well as descripti-ve
statistics were used to analyze the data. The qualitative data was analyzed
using descriptive analysis. The study found a significant relationship between
school climate perceptions and academic self-efficacy beliefs of prospective
teachers, with the general conclusion that particu-larly the “communication”
dimension of the school climate played an important role in the self-efficacy
beliefs of prospective teachers. </span> </span> <br /> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={Sakarya University}
