Abstract

This research aims to analyze the relationship between self-perceived competence dimensions of Primary School teachers in Spain and their level of self-efficacy. A sample of N = 40 teachers in Castilla y León area of this educational level, answered two Likert self-rating scales: the ECAD-EP (Valdivieso, Carbonero and Martín-Antón, 2013) for the measurement of teaching style with three dimensions (a. Social and Emotional , b. Communicative and Relationship and c. Instructional) and the test Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale –TSES-(Tschannen -Moran and Woolfolk , 2001) for the self-efficacy assessment. The process of data analysis focused on descriptive statistical calculations, bivariate correlation and linear regression. The results showed that the socialemotional factor has a significant linear correlation (r=.623) with self-efficacy dimension and it explains a 48.90% variance. Thus we can say that in the teacher training process it is necessary to include emotional skills in order to improve their effectiveness in the teaching.
