" Measurement and evaluation common competency perceptıon scale for prospectıve teachers: a validity and reliability study " was used to determine the efficacy perceptions of prospective teachers towards the assessment and evaluation course, and the "" Adaptation of Attitudes toward Educational Measurement Inventory (ATEMI) to Turkish" scale was used to determine their attitudes towards this course. The universe of the research consists of pre-service teachers enrolled in undergraduate programs in the Faculty of Education of Amasya University, who received assessment and evaluation training. The prospective teachers who participated in the survey were selected using the stratified sampling method, which is one of the non-random sampling methods. 342 pre-service teachers were selected as participants in the universe divided into strata according to undergraduate programs. A one-way analysis of variance was used to determine whether there was a difference between the mean of undergraduate programs for the two scales. Among the undergraduate programs, the differences that emerged as a result of the analysis of variance were determined by the Tukey test among the Post-Hoc tests. The relationship between pre-service teachers' general efficacy perceptions and attitudes towards this course was investigated and the effect of general efficacy perceptions on attitude was determined by regression analysis.
