A Psychometric Analysis and Revision of the Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Beliefs Instrument Using the Rasch Model: Focusing on Personal Teaching Efficacy = Rasch 모형을 활용한 수학 교수 효능감 측정 도구의 심리측정적 특성 분석 및 수정: 개인 효능감 요인을 중심으로

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of the study was to examine the psychometric properties of the personal teaching efficacy of the Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Beliefs Instrument and revise the scale for the use of Korean elementary school teachers. Data were collected from 299 elementary teachers. A Rasch analysis was used to evaluate unidimensionality and appropriateness of category use and item difficulty levels. Moreover, person separation and reliability as well as item separation and reliability were examined using the revised scale. Results suggested that the original personal teaching efficacy scale (13 items with five categories) had several problems in its psychometric properties. Thus, we revised the scale into eight items with four categories. The follow-up analysis results showed the revised scale provided sufficient psychometric properties for measuring Korean elementary school teachers' self-efficacy beliefs for teaching mathematics. Limitations and implications of the study were also discussed.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구의 목적은 수학 교수 효능감 측정 도구(MTEBI)의 심리측정적 특성을 탐색하고 한국 초등 교사들에게 사용할 수 있게 측정 도구를 수정하는 것이다. 문헌 연구를 바탕으로 MTEBI 중 개인 효능감 요인만을 분석하였다. 299명의 초등 교사들의 설문자료를 Rasch 모형을 이용하여 일차원성 가정, 응답범주 적절성, 문항 난이도 적절성, 분리지수와 신뢰도 측면에서 분석하였다. 분석 결과 5점 범주로 된 13개 문항은 심리측정적 측면에서 몇 가지 문제가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 후속 분석에서 5점 범주 대신 4점 범주로 수정하였으며 5개의 문항을 삭제한 후 8문항을 사용해 심리측정적 특성을 재분석하였다. 그 결과, 수정된 측정 도구는 초등 교사들의 수학 교수에 대한 개인효능감을 타당성 있게 측정하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 제한점과 제언을 추가 논의하였다.
