Abstract
Teaching efficacy and motivation are regarded as crucial elements that influence the job performance of Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health teachers in Philippine public schools. This study determined the significant influence of teaching efficacy and motivation on job performance among MAPEH teachers using a quantitative method, specifically a descriptive-correlational research design. Total enumeration sampling was employed to gather data from MAPEH teachers in Cluster 1, Davao City. Data were collected through adapted and validated questionnaires and analyzed in descriptive statistics using mean, standard deviation, Pearson product-moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis to assess the levels of teaching efficacy, motivation and job performance. The findings revealed that the respondents had a very high level of teaching efficacy (M=4.53, SD=0.36), high level of motivation for teaching was rated as high with (M=4.11, SD=0.30) and job performance of MAPEH teachers was evaluated as very high (M=4.83, SD=0.60). Furthermore, there was a significant relationship between teaching efficacy and job performance, as well as between motivation and job performance (p=0.05). In terms of influence, both teaching efficacy and motivation significantly predicted job performance (p=0.05), with motivation contributing a slightly higher unique variance. The study recommends targeted professional development to enhance efficacy and motivation.
