HENRIQUE, José y JANUARIO, Carlos. Pupil's self-perceived competence, teacher expectations, and academic performance: How do they relate in Physical Education?. Rev. Port. Cien. Desp. [online]. 2006, vol.6, n.2, pp.194-204. ISSN 1645-0523.
Student's perceived competence influences interest and persistence in learning accomplishment. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationships among student performance, teachers' expectations and student's perceived competence. Having a descriptive approach, we sampled 10 teachers and 186 6nd to 8nd grade students of the Brazilian educational system. Student performance was measured through tests, and the student's personal perception and teacher's expectation were picked up through self-report measures. Descriptive and inferential statistics allowed the analysis of the congruence among the variables in study. Student's personal perception has strong association with student performance and teacher's expectations. The teacher's expectations corresponded meaningfully with the students' performance. The results demonstrate the need to deepen the study of the effects of teachers' expectations on the teaching behaviour and students' perceived competence.
