Résumé 0

"The aim of this study was to describe the procedure carried out to develop a scale to measure specific self-efficacy in one particular do-main, i.e. university faculty, following the recommendations from Social Cognitive Theory by Albert Bandura. The scale that was created considers the triple work profile of university faculty (i.e. teaching, research and management). By using confirmatory factor analyses in a sample of 166 university faculty members, we found a superior fit for the three-factor model that corresponded with their triple work profile. Moreover, we found significant differences in research self-efficacy at the level of aca-demic education: as the level of academic education increases, self-efficacy also increases. Finally, theoretical and practical implications, limi-tations of the study and future research are also discussed."
