Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen gelten als personenbezogene Ressource, um mit den vielfältigen Anforderungssituationen umzugehen. Die soziale Unterstützung durch Mentoring gilt demgegenüber als wichtige umgebungsbezogene Ressource. Ressourcen sind von hoher Bedeutung, um Belastungen beim Berufseinstieg zu bewältigen. Allerdings ist bislang wenig bekannt über das Zusammenwirken zwischen personen- und umgebungsbezogenen Ressourcen. Die vorliegende längsschnittliche Studie untersucht daher, welche Rolle Mentoring und Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen für den Umgang mit Beanspruchungsfolgen im Praxissemester spielen. Des Weiteren wird untersucht, inwiefern Mentoring den Zusammenhang zwischen Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen und negativen Beanspruchungsfolgen, in diesem Fall emotionaler Erschöpfung und reduzierter Leistungsfähigkeit, moderiert. Die empirische Grundlage der Untersuchung sind Fragebogendaten von 192 Lehramtsstudierenden, die zu Beginn und zum Ende ihres viermonatigen Praxissemesters befragt wurden. Multiple Regressionsanalysen zeigen, dass hohe Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen zu Beginn des Praxissemesters mit geringerer emotionaler Erschöpfung sowie mit höherer Leistungsfähigkeit zum Ende des Praxissemesters einhergehen. Der Zusammenhang zwischen den Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen und der Leistungsfähigkeit wird durch die von den Lehramtsstudierenden wahrgenommene soziale Unterstützung durch Mentoring moderiert. Die Implikationen der Ergebnisse für die Lehrkräftebildung werden diskutiert. N2 - For education students, the start of their professional practice can be a demanding time for a number of different reasons. Self-efficacy may help education students deal with these challenges and can be understood as a personal resource. Mentoring, on other hand, can be considered a significant social resource. Resources like these play an important role in helping education students deal with the demands of the practical phase of their training. However, little is known about the interaction between self-efficacy and mentoring. This longitudinal study investigates the role of mentoring and self-efficacy in dealing with demands of education students’ first experience of professional practice. We also explore the extent to which mentoring moderates the relationship between self-efficacy and the experience of the challenges that education students face during this time. We analysed questionnaire data from 192 education students at the beginning and at the end of their first semester of professional practice. Multiple regression analyses show that self-efficacy at the beginning of the semester is associated with less emotional exhaustion and a higher sense of personal accomplishment by the end of the semester. This relationship between self-efficacy and education students’ sense of personal accomplishment is moderated by mentoring. Implications of the study for training education students are discussed.

Die REFS erfasst im englischsprachigen Original die Selbstwirksamkeit von Schiedsrichterinnen und Schiedsrichtern mit den Subskalen Wissen über das Spiel, Entscheidungsfindung, Druck und Kommunikation. Die Items wurden mit Hilfe der Übersetzung-Rückübersetzung ins Deutsche übertragen. Die Struktur und die psychometrischen Eigenschaften der deutschen Items wurden anhand einer Stichprobe aus 265 deutschsprachigen Fußballschiedsrichterinnen und -schiedsrichtern überprüft. Da die im englischsprachigen Original vorgeschlagene Skalenzuordnung der REFS nach der Übersetzung ins Deutsche nicht replizierbar war, wurden Items mit mangelhaften Skaleneigenschaften aus der deutschsprachigen REFS-Version (REFS-D) ausgeschlossen. Das Resultat der Analysen ist eine Skala mit acht Items, die sich drei Subskalen, Spielumsetzung, Druck und Kommunikation, zuordnen lassen. Die REFS-D weist zufriedenstellende interne Konsistenzen und signifikante mittelhohe Korrelationen mit allgemeiner Selbstwirksamkeit auf. Trotz einiger Einschränkungen stellt die REFS-D als ökonomische Skala einen Ansatzpunkt für zukünftige Forschung dar. N2 - The purpose of the present article was to evaluate statistically and validate a German version of the Referee Self-Efficacy Scale (REFS). The English REFS assesses referee self-efficacy and consists of the scales Game Knowledge, Decision-Making, Pressure, and Communication. Data from 265 soccer referees was used to evaluate the structure and psychometric properties of the German items. Since we could not replicate the original dimension structure, we excluded items from the German REFS (REFS-D) that showed poor item characteristics. Analyses resulted in a short REFS-D consisting of eight items, subdivided into three dimensions: game realization, pressure, and communication. Results show acceptable internal consistencies. All three subscales of the REFS-D showed significant moderate correlations with general self-efficacy. Despite some limitations, the REFS-D represents an economic questionnaire and starting point for future research.

Yet, research focusing on its possible antecedents seems to have received less attention especially within the physics domain. Based on assumptions of the Control Value Theory of Achievement Emotions (CVTAE), this study aimed at examining gender differences and structural relationships between students' reported perceived teacher autonomy support (PTAS), cognitive appraisals (self-efficacy and task value) and learning-related boredom in physics. A sample of 375 (56% females) randomly selected 9(th) grade students (mean age = 15.03 years; SD = 1.02) from five secondary schools in Masaka district of Uganda took part in the study. Results Data collected from students' self-reports using standardised instruments revealed that higher levels of PTAS, self-efficacy, and task value were significantly associated with lower levels of boredom during physics learning. Females reported significantly greater task value for learning physics than the males. Self-efficacy (beta = - .10, p < .05) and task value (beta = - .09, p < .01) partially mediated the relationship between PTAS and boredom. PTAS showed significant direct negative contributions to boredom (beta = - .34, p < .001). Conclusion These findings provide support for theory and practice about the importance of promoting autonomy among students by adjusting instructional behaviours among teachers of physics. Teacher autonomy supportive behaviours influence formation of students' beliefs about ability, subjective value and learning-related boredom in physics. Implications and suggestions for further research are also discussed in this paper.

Drawing on Organizational Socialization Theory, we tested the hypothesis that AC teacher extraversion and perceived school support are positively related to the two variables and mediated by self-efficacy. To test our hypothesis, we applied structural equation modeling. Our results demonstrate that extraversion and perceived social support are positively related to retention intentions and job satisfaction. In addition, self-efficacy serves as a mediator. The findings could help school administrators to better understand how to support and retain AC teachers and thus address teacher shortages.

The sample comprised 110 teacher-class pairs (1731 students). The results showed that teachers' didactic interest and self-efficacy predicted teacher reports of instructional practices. In contrast, student reports of instruction were significantly associated with teachers' educational interest and mastery goals. Moreover, student motivation was only related with student reports but not teacher reports of instructional practices. In particular, mastery-oriented practices contributed strongly to student motivation. Teacher educational interest predicted mastery-oriented practices and also showed a significant direct relation to student motivation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
