In the study it was performed that explanatory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis for determinin the subscales and construct validity. As the result of the analyses; 33 items whose factor loading values were over 0.57 were clustered under nine factors whose eigenvalues were greater than 1. It was found out that the percentage of variance explained by the nine factors was 78.362. When Cronbach Alpha internal consistency tests of the factors were analyzed, it was seen that α values of all factors were greater than 0.83. As a result; it is predicted that the scale can be used in a valid and reliable way in order to measure self-efficacy of the physical education teachers.
