Teacher self-efficacy sources during initial teacher education

• This paper reports on the role of self-efficacy sources in the development of teacher self- efficacy of four pre-service secondary mathematics teachers. The results revealed that all four self-efficacy sources were significant in the process, particularly for those individuals who were vulnerable. They also indicated that broadening of the current conceptualisation of physiological and affective states, and vicarious experiences as self-efficacy sources is necessary to uncover the nuances and aid understanding of the process of teacher self- efficacy development. Collectively, the results contribute to the field of teacher self-efficacy in new, previously unreported ways.
