Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to examine the predictive role of perceived teacher’s efficacy in assessing the severity of violence, predicting interventions, and selecting strategies in cases of peer violence. The research was conducted on a representative sample (N = 639) teachers in Croatia. Teachers with a higher perception of teacher’s efficacy are more inclined to assess violence more seriously and are more likely to intervene, and those who assess violence more seriously will intervene more often.
