| Abstract: | The aim of this study was to examine the status of experimental self-efficacy in biology education in national and international literature. The research was designed using a systematic literature review as a qualitative method. The PRISMA statement was taken into account to ensure reliability and validity in the research. The keywords "experiment self-efficacy, experimental self-efficacy, lab self-efficacy and laboratory self-efficacy" were determined as search terms and all results were reduced to biology and science. The searches were conducted on 6 databases [Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, ERIC (Education Resources Information Center), Google Scholar and National Thesis Center] without any limitations such as time period or language preference. 19 studies were included in the research. Content analysis was used in data analysis. As a result of the research, it was determined that the studies were mostly conducted in 2020-2021, in international publications and in Türkiye on a country basis, in the field of science, with quantitative methods and through scales. It is recommended to focus on qualitative, scale development and intervention-based research in the field of biology education. |
