%X The aim of this research is to adapt Teacher Efficacy and Attitudes Toward STEM Survey-Science Teachers Scale developed by the Friday Institute for Educational Innovation (2012a) to Turkish. This scale was adapted to Turkish to be determine the self-efficacy level of pre-service Science teachers. The study group of this research was constituted by 392 pre-service Science teachers who are studying at the 3rd and 4th grade levels of Department of Mathematics and Science Education, Science Education Program. In order to examine the construct validity of the scale, exploratory factor analysis was performed to whole scale. Following this analysis; it was found that Science Teaching Efficacy factor and Beliefs and Science Teaching Outcome Expectancy factor, the first two factors of the original scale, were determined the self-efficacy levels of pre-service Science teachers. Therefore; confirmatory factor analysis was performed to the first two factors of the original scale, the internal consistency coefficient was calculated and the test-retest method was used to assess the reliability of scale. As a result of the reliability analysis, the internal consistency coefficient was found as .808. According to data obtained from analysis, it has been revealed that the scale consisting of 2 factors and 12 items is a valid and reliable instrument which can be used in the field of education
