Culinary Literacy and Self-Efficacy as Predictors of Pre-Service Teachers’ Readiness in a Professional Teaching Program
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the levels of culinary literacy, self-efficacy, and readiness of Culinary Education students in the Lantip Program, as well as to determine the partial and simultaneous relationships between culinary literacy, self-efficacy, and student readiness. The study employed a quantitative correlational design. The participants were 82 students from the 2022 cohort of the Culinary Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Semarang who were preparing to undertake the Lantip Program. Data were collected through a closed-ended questionnaire based on a Likert scale that was developed from the indicators of each variable. The data were analyzed using descriptive percentage statistics, normality testing, linearity testing, simple correlation analysis, and multiple correlation analysis. The results showed that culinary literacy, self-efficacy, and student readiness were all categorized as high. The simple correlation analysis indicated a significant relationship between culinary literacy and readiness, as well as between self-efficacy and readiness. The multiple correlation analysis also showed a very strong relationship between culinary literacy and self-efficacy simultaneously with student readiness. These findings indicated that students with higher culinary literacy and stronger self-efficacy tended to demonstrate greater readiness to carry out teaching responsibilities in the Lantip Program.
