Abstract
ABSTRACT This article aimed to compare the sense of self-efficacy of Pre-School and Elementary School I teachers to teach students target audience of Special Education (PAEE) in the regular classroom of the municipal public network and to relate the sense of self-efficacy with demographic and professional performance. In the research, a total of 17 teachers from Pre-School and 27 from Elementary School 1 from a city in the interior of São Paulo participated. Data were obtained through a characterization questionnaire and the Teacher Effectiveness Scale for Inclusive Practices via central tendency, dispersion and correlations. When compared to Elementary 1 teachers, Pre-School teachers are older, have fewer students in the classroom and they feel more prepared to include. The self-efficacy values were similar between the two groups and the correlation data between the instruments are described. It was corroborated in the signaling of the potency and sensitivity of the EEDPI for the evaluation of teacher self-efficacy and the influence of the construct in the educational context.
