Abstract

This study carried out to modeling teachers’ personal efficacy with organizational trust and their collective efficacy. In this study, 255 teachers from elementary schools in Bajestan were selected with multistage sampling method. The instruments of study were Teacher sense of efficacy scale (short form) developed by Tschannen-Moran & Wolfolk Hoy (2001), Faculty Trust Scale developed by Hoy & Tschannen-Moran (2003) and Collective teacher belief scale developed by Tschannen-Moran & Barr (2004). Results showed that there are positive and significant correlations between components of organizational trust and teacher self-efficacy (P<0/01). Various fit indices for supposed model were adequate to data, too. According supposed model, although direct route from organizational trust towards teacher personal self-efficacy was negative, small and no significant (β = -0/187, P= 0/136) but indirect route from organizational trust towards teacher personal self-efficacy with mediation of collective teacher was positive, great and significant (β = 0/601, P<0/001), direct route from organizational trust towards teacher collective self-efficacy were positive, great and significant, too (β = 0/758, P<0/001). Results of study represent the importance of the organization’s social context in effect of the trust on the personal self-efficacy of the members.
