Abstract: This study explores the development and validation of the Perceptions of Teacher Credibility Scale (PTCS), a tool designed to measure students' perceptions of teacher credibility across various educational contexts. Teacher credibility, encompassing dimensions such as competence, trustworthiness, and caring, is a critical factor influencing student engagement and learning outcomes. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, beginning with qualitative interviews to identify key constructs of teacher credibility as perceived by students. These insights inform the creation of the PTCS, which is subsequently tested through quantitative analysis involving a large sample of students across different age groups and educational levels. The scale's reliability and validity are assessed through exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, alongside tests of internal consistency. The results suggest that the PTCS is a robust instrument that can be effectively used to gauge teacher credibility, providing valuable insights for educators and researchers alike. Implications for educational practice and future research directions are also discussed.
