Los resultados de una encuesta mostraron que los profesores albergan creencias sobre su eficacia en investigación que van de moderadas a altas. Igualmente, éstos se dicen muy motivados para realizar investigación y la consideran una actividad importante para el área. El obstáculo más recurrentemente mencionado fue la falta de tiempo. La poca consistencia entre el sentido alto de autoeficacia de la mayoría de los participantes y su limitado compromiso para la investigación sugieren la posibilidad de que los profesores hayan sobrevalorado sus habilidades investigativas. Finalmente, se discuten las implicaciones de estos hallazgos.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Bogotá - Facultad de Ciencias Humanas - Departamento de Lenguas Extranjeras - Grupo de Investigación PROFILEhttps://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/profile/article/view/66008Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN PROFILE Issues in Teachers' Professional DevelopmentPROFILE Issues in Teachers' Professional DevelopmentReyes-Cruz, María del Rosario and Murrieta-Loyo, Griselda and Perales-Escudero, Moisés Damián (2018) Foreign Language Faculty Research-Related Beliefs, Perceptions, and Research Motivation at Three Mexican Universities.
