People with higher self-efficacy function better in various life domains than people with low self-efficacy. One of such areas is professional activity and building career paths. Changes taking place in the lives of university graduates when going through the subsequent stages of transition from the education system to the labour market may bring about changes in self-efficacy. The study had a shortitudinal design, and the participants were 170 individuals (108 women and 62 men) with a mean age of M = 25.29 (SD = 0.98). The first measurement was performed a few weeks before the participants’ graduation from the university, and the second one was performed when they had been in the labor market for half a year. We used the Life Roles Self-Efficacy Scale and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. There are also changes in the level of self-efficacy beliefs between different stages of transition. Therefore, in the education system and in labor market institutions, apart from formal competences, it is also necessary to form a conviction about their own effectiveness in these life roles.

Consumer education is geared towards empowering people to lead their lives. This is under-stood as a coping task at the interface between the individual and society, embedded in private households. In a consumer society, the conduct of life is largely organised via markets, so the role of the consumer is a characteristic one. This is associated with complex challenges for the conduct of life.

Self-Efficacy from Being-Touched What is self-efficacy? I would like to discuss this question using a clinical example. While using the case vignette, I first examine the life movements of the preverbal phase and distinguish receptivity from passivity. From an Adlerian perspective I distinguish the life movement of selfefficacy from ego activity. Being moved and touched is considered from the perspective of life phenomenology. From this philosophical perspective I study self-efficacy in the therapeutic approach of the Italian psychoanalyst Gianni Nebbiosi and develop a definition from it. The final point is a contemplation of the »Event«, a term of the philosopher John D. Caputo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this study was to explore the source of students’ self-efficacy and its relation to motivation, attitude, and students’ perception of teacher support in mathematics learning. Three hundred and fifty participants were selected using a stratified random sampling method. The study was survey-based and quantitative; data were analysed through statistical tests. Findings showed that most students reported having good grades in math. The source of self-efficacy in mathematics significantly correlates with attitude, intrinsic motivation, and students’ perception of teacher support.

Background: Surgery represents a challenging medical discipline. Aim: This article focuses on psychological stress in surgery and explains resilience as a protective factor against the consequences of psychological stress, based on selected literature references and own relevant clinical experiences. In this context, the sense of coherence, social support and self-efficacy expectation are discussed in more detail as resilience factors. Method: Narrative review. Results (corner points): Surgery is classified as a challenging medical subspecialty with a high reputation but associated with diverse and varied physical and psychological stress factors. Stress factors differ individually in terms of requirements (can be overdemanding or underdemanding but also stimulating, relevant to learning and meaningful, thus positively or negatively stressful) and resources (potentially beneficial working conditions, experience, or behavior, e.g., social support, scope for action). Fluctuations within surgical specialties and a high dropout rate during residency training are well known and the causes include high psychological stress. In the case of persistent and at the same time insufficient compensation of work stress caused by a lack of or insufficient resources, these can be associated with mental illnesses. Nonetheless, many physicians spend their entire lives working in hospital or private surgical settings and remain healthy, a strong sense of resilience to mental illness may be fundamental to this. Resilience can be present as a personal characteristic or it can be learnt through a process or adapted through positive or negative influences, thus strengthening the personal characteristics. Overall, data on surgeon resilience or interventional studies in resilience research in the surgical setting are limited and provide another research gap. Resilience training (directed at a sense of coherence, social support, strengthening knowledge of coping skills, positive emotions, optimism, hope, self-efficacy expectations, control beliefs or robustness), also clearly indicated in the "robust" medical specialty of surgery, is always individual and should not be generalized. If the surgeon cannot retrieve sufficient resources due to the stressful situation, stress management with its methods is helpful to reduce the psychological stress and to be able to maintain the performance and health of this person. Conclusion: The consolidation of resilience as a notable aspect of employee management. In collegial interactions, resilience must be based on workplace-based approaches to strengthen coping mechanisms in the face of work stress. Workplace-related stress should also be perceived, addressed and counteracted within the organization, certainly also as an elementary management task. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• Most teachers in the Netherlands do not report difficulty in discussing the most controversial topics. Anti-muslimism, COVID vaccination, and integration of ethnic minorities are perceived as relatively difficult topics to discuss. • High teacher self-efficacy and school support are related to reported ease in discussing all controversial topics. • Specific controversial topics are considered more challenging to discuss in diverse classrooms in terms of SES and ethnicity. • Controversial topics are perceived as more difficult to discuss in vocational educational tracks. Purpose: This study examines what controversial topics teachers in the Netherlands perceive as difficult to discuss and if and how this difficulty is related to teachers’ background characteristics and context characteristics. Methodology: 1034 secondary school teachers filled in an online questionnaire, and structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to explore the relationships among variables. Findings: The findings indicate that recent topics with a direct large impact on students’ lives and society, like COVID vaccination, are perceived as most difficult to discuss. With more perceived school support and high self-efficacy teachers report more ease to discuss controversial topics. Yet, reported difficulty to discussing controversial topics is also partially context- and person-specific, involving (among others) classroom composition, school subject and teacher’s age. Practical implications: This study can inform the development of subject and context-specific teaching materials and training programs in civic and democratic education.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the teaching of 21st-century skills and the creative self-efficacy of prospective teachers. The research followed a correlational survey design and involved 175 prospective teachers enrolled at a university in the eastern region of Turkey. Data collection was carried out using the "21st Century Skills Teaching Scale" and the "Creative Self-Efficacy Scale." Descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Analysis, and Linear Regression Analysis were employed to analyze the data. The findings revealed that the prospective teachers exhibited a high level of proficiency in teaching 21st-century skills and had a strong sense of creative self-efficacy. There was no significant difference in the level of teaching 21st-century skills and creative self-efficacy among prospective teachers from different departments. However, male prospective teachers demonstrated a higher level of proficiency in teaching 21st-century skills compared to their female counterparts. Furthermore, a positive and significant relationship was observed between the teaching of 21st-century skills and creative self-efficacy.

Tartışma sonucunda okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin gelişime uygun uygulamaları, çok kültürlülüğe yönelik tutumları ve öz yeterlik algılarını desteklemek amacıyla birtakım öneriler sunulmuştur.

Openness to new ideas and practices could be characterized as a primary condition that leads teachers to innovation and it is also a key component of schools that foster teachers’ and students’ learning. However, there are not many studies that examine teachers’ openness and factors related to it, while the relationship between self-efficacy and innovation has been identified. The study aimed to investigate the possible relationship between teachers’ self-efficacy and openness to new ideas and practices. Using a quantitative approach 182 primary school teachers completed a self-reported questionnaire consisted of a self-efficacy scale and one subscale that refers to openness. The statistical analysis of the primary data showed that teachers express themselves clearly positively both in terms of their self-efficacy and their openness to new ideas, while a weak correlation was found between the two variables. The results partially confirm the findings of similar studies and demonstrate the necessity of further investigation of this specific topic and the search for organizational factors that may influence these variables.

The majority of recent research studies show the emotional state of language learners at the onset of the Covid-19 . Although the language students themselves identified issues limiting their learning, such as lack of interaction, lack of motivation and feedback, isolation, problems with the Internet, language teachers have admitted their concerns about students learning and confessed to being flexible, tolerant, and more humane. Today, there is a need to follow up on those student issues regarding their language learning beyond the Spring of 2020. This paper sheds light on the evolution of life, emotions, and wellbeing of the students, and their language learning beyond the rapid transition in Spring 2020 from forced unplanned teaching to the planned teaching during the pandemic of Fall 2020 and Spring 2021. This study explores the perceptions of 68 foreign language students in an American context through a survey. The results report on college language students’ needs, their emotions and wellbeing, and their recommendations to administrators based on their needs and perceptions.

The last of the seven work modules of the mentalization-promoting behavioral therapy MVT is »change of perspective and empathy«. Only after authentic and vital feelings and reliable self-efficacy have been achieved can the path to the empathy level be taken. The person to be treated learns to empathize with the other person so that their needs are felt and their thoughts and actions are understood, and they learn to open up and express themselves to the other person in such a way that they have a chance to empathize and to understand what the person being treated needs and why they are feeling a certain way. It is explained how the sovereign thinking from the thinking level can be gently disturbed by a safe and targeted, but also guided accompaniment and how an incentive for a change of perspective is made possible. This step to the empathy stage enables the following achievements: empathetic speaking about oneself and one’s feelings and empathic interest, empathic questioning, empathic listening, perspective shifting and empathizing. This development process thus describes more than metacognitive training. The desired mature self-mode can be understood as a further development of the previously known mentalization-based therapy concepts. In this way, the prerequisites can be created to lead a happier and healthier life with the optimized ability to shape and maintain long-term relationships. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Of the seven working modules of the mentalizing behavioral therapy MVT, the last two modules – module six and seven – are development modules. Previously, access to emotional experience was established with the Emotion Tracking module. Module six, »Affect regulation and self-efficacy«, deals with the development from the affect level to the thinking level, after the physical level has been promoted beforehand. Development is conceived as a dynamic process in relation to specific relationship contexts and situational contexts. A detailed development diagnosis is followed by the treatment of impulse blockades and avoidance behavior. Impulsive action is automated through targeted exercises. This includes correcting the deficits of the affect stage and creating an incentive for the achievements of the next thought stage. In principle, strengths are first built up and deficits reduced, only then does the step to the next higher level follow. This is done with the help of specific diagnostic and working methods. The necessary ability to control is promoted through targeted practice of understanding cause and effect until a theory of the mental or a theory of mind (ToM) is established. Experience-oriented and pictorial-scenic experiences are used for this with the help of physical sensations in order to allow new behavior, to be able to allow vital feelings again and to be able to defend one’s own needs. From here, the step to the seventh module »Change of perspective and empathy« can be made. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

"Blind in your right eye, because you won't see it"1 is a line from the song "Fair" by the rapper Nura2 . The question that arises is whether teachers of German as a foreign or second language remain blind in the right eye if topics like right-wing violence, racism, and discrimination are excluded from the classroom in order to construct a positive image of Germany. The question is: What does it mean to be German, and how do we determine that? These questions are part of a discourse on cultural learning and the consideration of which topics and depictions of culture are given space in the learning environment. One aim of the article is to provide teachers with ideas about the issue and how to integrate it into the classroom. The topic of right-wing violence can be overwhelming and heavy. Even though, artists, initiatives, and collectives like Nura and Datteltäter can provide empowering impulses for a diverse society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents the results of research related to students’ self-efficacy in relation to their future work with a gifted student. In the theoretical part, important concepts were analyzed and different approaches to the problem of giftedness were presented. In the methodological part, reader was introduced to the research strategy. The method of the diagnostic survey was described, as well as the survey technique used. The empirical part is a quantitative and qualitative data analysis that allowed to find answers to the research questions. It turns out that students assessed their own self-efficacy on average level. They are unfamiliar with a constructivist approach to education that could facilitate and make work with a gifted student easier and more attractive. Some hope is given by the fact that the respondents indicated broadly understood lifelong learning as a way to solve problems in this area.

In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, 4IR or Industry 4.0, since highly advanced technology largely replaced human works, many production activities of both goods and services were required to be innovative. The purposes of this study were to examine the role of energizing self-efficacy as a mediator of leadership empowering and innovative behavior to analyze the mediator’s role of affective commitment between the two. A survey method was used by distributing online questionnaires to 617 lecturers in Indonesia. For researching the interrelation of empowering leadership, energizing self-efficacy, affective commitment, and innovative behavior via statistical examination of their interrelationship, we applied Stata 13 software to test the hypotheses. The results pinpointed the significant impact of empowering leadership on affective commitment, energizing self-efficacy, and innovative behavior. Energizing self-efficacy significantly influenced innovative behavior, but the impact vice versa is not significant. There was an indirect effect of empowering leadership on innovative behavior through energizing self-efficacy, but the affective commitment was not a mediator between empowering leadership and innovative behavior. These findings indicated that lecturers could stimulate their innovative behaviors by increasing their self- efficacy through empowering leadership. Our research findings highlight the importance of enhancing innovative behavior, self-efficacy, and empowering leadership.
