Resumen

Doscientos sesenta y tres participantes (129 aspirantes y 134 profesores con distintos años de experiencia profesional) formaron parte de un estudio con objeto de conocer cómo la condición del encuestado y las expectativas de eficacia informadas, tanto personal como general, se relacionaban con la percepción de una serie de inquietudes descritas por Fuller (1969) que caracterizan el ejercicio de la profesión (supervivencia, tarea e impacto). Para este propósito se realizaron sendas adaptaciones al castellano de dos instrumentos de medida: Teacher Efficacy Scale (Gibson y Dembo, 1984), y Teacher Concerns Questionnaire (George, 1978). Los resultados obtenidos mostraron una preocupación más elevada por la supervivencia en la profesión en aquellos aspirantes que manifestaron una mayor expectativa de eficacia personal. Adicionalmente, los profesores más inquietos por aspectos relacionados con la satisfacción de las necesidades académicas, sociales y emocionales de los estudiantes (inquietudes de impacto), fueron aquellos que informaron de los menores niveles de eficacia en ambas dimensiones señaladas.

Abstract

The study analyses the relationships between the subjects' condition—prospective or in-service teacher—, their personal and general expectations of informed efficacy, and how they perceive various teaching concerns (self-survival, task and impact) described by Fuller (1969). Participants were 129 prospective teachers and 134 in-service teachers with a wide range of teaching experience. For this purpose, we adapted to Spanish the two measurement instruments used: Teacher Efficacy Scale (Gibson and Dembo, 1984) and Teacher Concerns Questionnaire (George, 1978). The results show that prospective teachers with the highest sense of personal efficacy were the ones most concerned about self-survival as teachers, while in-service teachers with a low sense of personal and general efficacy in the former aspects were more concerned about the academic, social and emotional impact of teaching.
