A longitudinal inquiry of sources of teacher self-efficacy
The cultivation of robust teacher self-efficacy (TSE) has been regarded as essential in the early career stages; however, little is known about its sources and changing mechanisms during such a period, especially in the Chinese context. The study utilised a longitudinal qualitative method, interviewing participants (n = 6) at the beginning and completion of their professional experience and the end of the first teaching semester. The results indi…
Leveraging local knowledge to develop local forecasts
How sources of teacher self-efficacy change and function
How pre-service teacher self-efficacy changes during the professional experience placement
The profile and predictability of the sources of pre-service teacher self-efficacy
Professional experience elicits enduring effects on teacher self-efficacy (TSE); however, despite a growing understanding of early TSE formation, limited quantitative studies have been conducted. No research has applied a person-centred method, meaning personal variation or simultaneity in the integration of different TSE sources has been neglected. This person-centred study investigated TSE levels and perceived sources of TSE of 289 pre-service …
Sources of pre-service teacher self-efficacy
Teacher self-efficacy (TSE) is among the most-studied constructs in teacher education and resists change after the early stages of development, particularly during professional experience. This study investigates the sources of early-career TSE longitudinally, which few previous studies have done. Two phases of one-on-one interviews were completed with pre-service teachers after the first (n = 18) and final (n = 13) professional experience placem…
Spatial heterogeneity in the joint effect of heat wave and ozone pollution on mortality at the township-level in China
Urban Surface Ozone Concentration in Mainland China during 2015–2020
Urban ozone (O 3 ) pollution in the atmosphere has become increasingly prominent on a national scale in mainland China, although the atmospheric particulate matter pollution has been significantly reduced in recent years. The clustering and dynamic variation characteristics of the O 3 concentrations in cities across the country, however, have not been accurately explored at relevant spatiotemporal scales. In this study, a standard deviational ell…

Changes in pre-service teacher self-efficacy for teaching in relation to professional experience placements
This article aims to contribute new, longitudinal evidence on teacher self-efficacy (TSE) by investigating changes in TSE over the last 2 years of an Australian initial teacher education program. Two hundred and one pre-service teachers were surveyed at three timepoints: (1) after the first professional experience placement, (2) before and (3) after the final placement, using the Scale for Teacher Self-Efficacy. Data were analysed using multileve…

Spatiotemporal Distribution and Evolution of Digestive Tract Cancer Cases in Lujiang County, China since 2012
This study aims to analyze the spatiotemporal distribution and evolution of digestive tract cancer (DTC) in Lujiang County, China by using the geographic information system technology. Results of this study are expected to provide a scientific basis for effective prevention and control of DTC. The data on DTC cases in Lujiang County, China, were downloaded from the Data Center of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Hefei, Anhui Provi…

Influence of Response-Option Combinations when Measuring Sense of Efficacy for Teaching
Certain combinations of number and labeling of response options on Likert scales might, because of their interaction, influence psychometric outcomes. In order to explore this possibility with an experimental design, two versions of a scale for assessing sense of efficacy for teaching (SET) were administered to preservice teachers. One version had seven response options with labels at odd-numbered points; the other had nine response options with …
Efficacy Perceptions of Preservice and Inservice Teachers in China
Measuring Teacher Sense of Efficacy
In this study, issues concerning the design of scales for measuring teacher sense of efficacy (TSE) are first identified with particular attention to the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES). Psychometric issues concerning analysis and reporting of TSE data are subsequently identified. Recommendations are offered about all identified issues, and these recommendations are taken into account when obtaining and analyzing TSE data from Chinese main…
Land Subsidence in a Coal Mining Area Reduced Soil Fertility and Led to Soil Degradation in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions
Underground coal mining in western China causes heavy land subsidence and alters the soil ecology. However, the effects of land subsidence on soil fertility are not currently known, and the key factors governing its impact remain unclear in sandy land. We investigated the effects of land subsidence induced by underground mining on the soil quality in western China. Soil samples were collected at 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm from control and subsidence ar…
