To design and validate an instrument evaluating science teachers' perceptions of pedagogical content knowledge and its role in practical science instruction.
Conducted content validation using an expert panel to evaluate and refine survey items.
Administered a pilot study to assess the internal consistency of the questionnaire using Cronbach's alpha.
Developed a 30-item instrument covering five domains: science teaching orientations, curriculum knowledge, assessment knowledge, student understanding of science, and instructional strategies.
Achieved high internal consistency reliability with an overall Cronbach's alpha of 0.881.
