Abstract
Understanding teachers’ self-efficacy and affective well-being is crucial, particularly in the Chinese context where teachers face unique cultural and professional expectations. Adopting a social cognitive perspective, this study used latent profile analysis on 1264 Chinese teachers to explore teacher self-efficacy profiles and their relationship with demographics and affective well-being. Four distinct self-efficacy profiles were identified. Teaching experience and school level significantly predicted profile membership, while gender and school location did not. Differences in affective well-being were found across profiles, though anxiety and depression did not significantly differ between some profiles. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings were discussed.
