Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate teachers' views on their self-efficacy and how they improve their self-efficacy beliefs during teaching practice. A mixed methods research design was used, with the Teacher's Self-Efficacy Scale, Personal Information Form, and Semi-structured Interview Form as data collection instruments. Quantitative data were collected from 379 teachers in public schools in the 2021-2022 academic year, while qualitative data were obtained from the top 10 participants with the highest level of self-efficacy. Based on the qualitative and quantitative results, it was revealed that teachers' self-efficacy levels were high and they felt self-efficient in their teaching. The study is of great importance as it raises awareness of the importance of self-efficacy in the teaching profession and contributes to further research and qualified teacher training.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of teachers' beliefs on their 3D printing integration in science classrooms. The findings reveal that teachers' pedagogical, self-efficacy, and technology value beliefs are generally not correlated with their 3D printing integration practices, except for a negative correlation between teachers' self-efficacy in pedagogical content knowledge and their STEM integration levels. Teachers perceive 3D printing integration as beneficial for students but face challenges in logistics, technical issues, lack of time and resources, and teaching students with individual differences.

Summary: With the increasing need for nurturing students' independent learning, English language teaching practices should adopt student-centered assessment methods like self-assessment. Before implementing self-assessment in EFL classrooms, it is important to study EFL teachers' attitudes and self-efficacy beliefs towards self-assessment. This qualitative research examined Chinese tertiary EFL writing teachers' attitudes and self-efficacy beliefs about student self-assessment of writing, highlighting the lack of self-assessment in their knowledge base and previous practices.

Summary: This study examines the effects of an intensive summer English training program on college students' self-efficacy beliefs and listening and speaking skills. The results show that students' self-efficacy beliefs improved after the program, but there were no statistically significant changes in their listening and speaking skills. Furthermore, the study found that pretest listening self-efficacy predicted posttest listening skills, but pretest speaking self-efficacy did not contribute to the prediction of posttest speaking skills.

Summary: This study examines the impact of teacher attitudes and instruction on adolescents' sexual self-efficacy beliefs. The findings suggest that students' perception of teachers valuing the content is associated with mastery goal structure for sexual self-efficacy beliefs. Students who feel their teachers prioritize learning about sexual health are more likely to have positive adaptive self-efficacy beliefs and engage in behaviors that decrease STDs and promote safe sexual practices.

Summary: In order to effectively regulate others' emotions, we must consider the effectiveness of our regulation efforts. This study explores whether beliefs about emotion regulation efficacy are influenced by base rates. Two experiments showed that participants' perceived efficacy at helping someone regulate their emotions was more influenced by the target's average emotion levels rather than the relative effect of regulating or not regulating their emotions. This biased belief led participants to mistakenly think they were helpful even when they were not or when they made the target feel worse.

Summary: This study aimed to explore whether and how supervisor-resident dyads achieve alignment in performance observations and discuss and adjust goals and methods of observations. The results showed that communication between supervisors and residents regarding the use of observations was not frequent, and their repertoire seemed to be driven more by institutional assessment requirements and patient safety goals rather than providing developmental feedback.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the impact of entrustable professional activities (EPAs) on motivation and learning of psychiatry trainees. The results showed that the impact of EPAs on learning was mediated by the trainee's appraisals of subjective control, value, and the costs of engaging with EPAs. Positive appraisals encouraged focused and structured learning with the supervisor, while negative appraisals led to a superficial approach. The granularity of EPAs, alignment with clinical practice, and the supervisor's conscientiousness were found to influence trainee appraisals and subsequent motivation and learning.

Summary: This study explores how educators perceive and achieve assessment quality, as well as their perceptions of the impact of assessment on student learning. The findings reveal that educators predominantly use traditional criteria to understand and achieve assessment quality, with limited awareness of quality criteria at the course and program levels. Additionally, educators perceive the impact of assessment on student learning in two distinct ways: as a source of information to monitor and direct learning, and as a tool to prompt learning.

Summary: Reliability and measurement error are measurement properties that assess the impact of various sources of variation on individual measurements. Different designs can be used to evaluate reliability and measurement error, based on choices about which sources of variation are manipulated, which are controlled, and whether the entire measurement instrument or only part of it is repeated. This paper explains how these choices affect the calculation of intraclass correlation coefficients and standard errors of measurement using Venn diagrams, and provides recommendations for improving measurement and reporting study essentials.
