The Interplay of Teachers’ Profile, Workload and Self-Efficacy: A Correlational Study

This study aims to determine the relationships between demographic profile, workload profile, and sense of self-efficacy of teachers in a public senior high school setting. Frequency distribution and percentage calculation were used to describe the demographic profile, and workload profile. Median was used for self-efficacies. Point biserial correlation and Spearman rho correlation were used to determine the relationship between the demographic profile of the teachers and teacher’s self-efficacy. Spearman rho correlation was used to determine the relationship between the workload profile of the teachers to teacher’s self-efficacy. The results show that age and years of teaching experience were significantly related to teachers’ sense of self-efficacy. There were positive and non-significant relationships calculated with sex, education level, subject taught, and teaching to the three constructs of teacher’s sense of self-efficacy. There were positive and non-significant relationships between teachers’ sense of self-efficacy in teaching hours, planning lessons, marking/correcting of students’ work, recording student performance, and student counseling. Negative and non-significant correlations were calculated with staff meetings and general administrative work.
