Existing writing self-efficacy instruments have assessed the concept through mechanical and process features of writing to the neglect of the influence of situated context. The purpose of this study was to develop and test the Situated Academic Writing Self-Efficacy Scale (SAWSES) based on Bandura’s self-efficacy theory and a model of socially constructed writing. A sequential multimethod approach constituted the methods. A Delphi panel of 15 expert scholars conducted a theoretical evaluation of the scale and the items were piloted with 20 nursing undergraduate students using cognitive interviews. The scale was validated in two studies with independent samples of 255 nursing students (Study 1), and in an interdisciplinary sample of undergraduate (N = 543) and graduate students (N = 264) (Study 2). The three identified factors present a structure to the questionnaire which is developmental and has the potential to detect gaps in student self-assessed ability to master various facets of disciplinary writing: 1) Writing-Essentials – synthesis, emotional control, language; 2) Relational-Reflective – relationship building with writing facilitators (teachers, academic sources) and the self through reflection; and 3) Creative Identity – exploring gaps in student achievement of transformative writing (creativity, voice, and disciplinary identity), where confidence can help identify the most engaged writers.

现有的写作自我效能感工具已经通过写作的机械和过程特征来评估该概念，而忽略了情境的影响。这项研究的目的是基于班杜拉的自我效能感理论和一种社会建构的写作模式，开发和测试“情境学术写作自我效能感量表”（SAWSES）。顺序多方法方法构成了这些方法。由15位专家学者组成的Delphi小组对量表进行了理论评估，并通过认知访谈对20名护理学本科生进行了试验。该量表在两项研究中得到了验证，其中包括255名护理学生的独立样本（研究1）以及本科（N = 543）和研究生（N = 264）的跨学科样本（研究2）。这三个确定的因素为问卷提供了一种结构，该结构具有发展性，并有可能发现学生在自我评估能力方面的差距，以掌握学科写作的各个方面：1）写作要素–综合，情感控制，语言；2）关系反射式–通过写作促进者（老师，学术资源）和通过反思的自我建立关系；3）创造性身份-探索学生在变革性写作（创造力，话语权和学科身份）成就方面的差距，在这种差距下，自信可以帮助确定最富参与性的作家。2）关系反射式–通过写作促进者（老师，学术资源）和通过反思的自我建立关系；3）创造性身份-探索学生在变革性写作（创造力，话语权和学科身份）成就方面的差距，在这种差距下，自信可以帮助确定最富参与性的作家。2）关系反射式–通过写作促进者（老师，学术资源）和通过反思的自我建立关系；3）创造性身份-探索学生在变革性写作（创造力，话语权和学科身份）成就方面的差距，在这种差距下，自信可以帮助确定最富参与性的作家。
