Self-efficacy in Relation with Job Performance in Higher Education Sector: A Systematic Review

Abstract

The systematic review article on self-efficacy about the job performance of teachers aims to explore the performance of teachers belonging to higher education institutions. The quantitative study has selected 143 articles on self-efficacy and rest, these have been filtered and sorted out and the 10 most relevant articles were included in the review. Purposive sampling has been used to select the data from various databases including Pub Med, Google Scholar, MDPI, and Science Direct. The literature matrix has been made to display the findings of the review. Surveys, interviews, and questionnaires were used to collect data in the primary studies, there were qualitative, quantitative and mix-method studies that were originally included in the review. The objective of the study was to look at the outcome of findings based on the literature on performance by teachers. It is hypothesized to have a significant link between self-efficacy and performance. The inclusion and exclusion criteria have been used to sort out the studies after reviewing it has been seen that self-efficacy has a relationship with the job performance of the teachers. The current study has few monetary and sampling limitations which can be overcome in the future. It is recommended to conduct the review with only longitudinal research and it is advisable to take the primary or first-hand data for exploring the phenomena. The current study is significant because it helps us to know the importance of self-efficacy and creates new avenues for future research.
