The Mathematics Teaching Efficacy Beliefs Instrument (MTEBI) is a domain-specific modification of the Science Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument (STEBI). The MTEBI measures pre-service teachers‘ beliefs regarding mathematical instruction, students' ability to learn mathematics and teachers‘ sense of efficacy in teaching mathematics. This instrument measures mathematics efficacy beliefs in preservice teachers. The MTEBI consists of 21 items on each of two scales: Personal Mathematics Teaching Efficacy and Mathematics Teaching Outcome Expectancy.
