             Emotional Intelligence and Self-Efficacy of PE Teachers
             Table 3 presents the results for the individual dimensions of EI and SE for the
             entire sample. The arithmetic means indicate that overall EI scores are rela-
             tively high, with the highest scores observed for well-being (M =6.01; SD =
             0.66) and emotionality (M =5.94; SD = 0.66).
               The arithmetic means of the NTSES ranged from 5.51 to 6.07, suggesting
             that participants tended to evaluate their SE positively. Among the various
             dimensions assessed, instruction received the highest rating, while coping
             with changes and challenges received the lowest. Additionally, the results
             from the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test suggest that the data are generally not
             normally distributed.


             Differences in Emotional Intelligence and Self-Efficacy of PE Teachers
             The Mann-Whitney U test was used to assess gender differences in EI and SE.
             Among the TEIQue-SF dimensions, only the emotionality showed a statisti-
             cally significant difference (p < 0.01), with female teachers exhibiting higher
             values than male teachers (Table 4).
               Moreover, the results revealed no statistically significant differences in the
             SE dimensions (NTSES) based on the gender of PE teachers (Table 5).
