Abstract
This study aims to cluster teachers based on their professional digital competence beliefs using Latent-Profile-Analysis (LPA) and to examine relations to teacher and school characteristics. We also explore the significance of two approaches to varying the variance-covariance-matrix (VCM). Data from n= 698 German teachers was used. We identified a relatively low, medium, and relatively high profile. The means of competence beliefs and the links to teacher and school characteristics between both approaches differed. Across analysis, however, higher age, lower interest, and being female predicted the probability of being in the relatively low profile relative to the other profiles.
期刊介绍：
Teaching and Teacher Education is an international journal concerned primarily with teachers, teaching, and/or teacher education situated in an international perspective and context. The journal focuses on early childhood through high school (secondary education), teacher preparation, along with higher education concerning teacher professional development and/or teacher education. Teaching and Teacher Education is a multidisciplinary journal committed to no single approach, discipline, methodology, or paradigm. The journal welcomes varied approaches (qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods) to empirical research; also publishing high quality systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Manuscripts should enhance, build upon, and/or extend the boundaries of theory, research, and/or practice in teaching and teacher education. Teaching and Teacher Education does not publish unsolicited Book Reviews.
