Key Points

This study aims to develop a reliable and valid measurement tool for pre-service special education teachers' competencies from an educational service perspective.
Derived a latent model based on related prior studies, structured into 4 domains and 9 criteria.
Developed a measurement tool consisting of 19 preliminary items for assessing competencies.
Conducted a survey on the importance of measurement items among 100 pre-service special education teachers.
Exploratory factor analysis revealed item grouping into 2 factors: value and interaction experience, and systematic approach and value co-creation abilities.
Selected items demonstrated high internal consistency for each scale.
Discriminant analysis showed that the derived factor structure had limitations in explaining group differences.
