چکیده مقاله
The present study investigated Iranian high school EFL teachers’ self efficacy types and its relationship with classroom management styles. To this end, two questionnaires, namely The Attitudes and Beliefs on Classroom Control Inventory (ABCC) (Martin, Yin, and Baldwin, 1998), and Teacher Efficacy Scale (TES) (Gibson and Dembo, 1984), were administered to 100 Iranian high school EFL teachers. The analysis of the findings through Pearson Product correlation revealed that personal teacher efficacy has a significant positive correlation with behavior management (r= .210, p= .036) whereas the general teacher efficacy has a significant positive relationship with instructional management (r= .231, p= .021) and behavior management (r= .224, p= .025). Moreover, the outcomes demonstrated that efficacy beliefs are positively connected with classroom management styles. Furthermore, the findings indicated a significant positive correlation between Iranian high school EFL teachers’ total self efficacy beliefs and total classroom management styles (r= .287, p= .004). Finally, statistically significant differences among high school EFL teachers' classroom management styles and their self efficacy beliefs were found with respect to gender. The results revealed that female teachers’ self efficacy beliefs and classroom management were significantly higher than that of males. The implications were offered to enthusiastic researchers which may enhance their awareness of the link between self efficacy types and classroom management styles and the way it can generate great results for the educational system.
