Abstract
Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has attracted significant attention as a form of teachers’ professional knowledge. This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies to examine the relationship between PCK and other variables among mathematics and science teachers at the primary and secondary levels. The analysis, based on 298 effect sizes collected from 56 papers, showed that teachers’ PCK was positively associated with their content knowledge (CK) and teacher efficacy but not with their gender. Regarding the quality of instruction and students’ academic performance, the results differed by model, although the multilevel-based analyses yielded positive correlations.
