Summary/Abstract: As supportive of traditional measurement and assessment approaches in 7th Grade Science and Technology course’s “Light” chapter, the purpose of this research is to test the effect of performance based status determination on students’ perception of self-efficacy, their course related concerns and permanence levels. As supportive of traditional measurement and assessment approaches the performance based status determination has been applied to the experiment group while control group has been applied only traditional measurement and assessment approaches by the researcher. Analysis of the data obtained in the research have been evaluated by single factor analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and two factor (repeated measures) ANOVA for repeated measurements on single factor. As a result, while significant difference has been found between experiment and control groups from the perspective of self efficacy perceptions, no significant difference has been found between course related concerns and permanence levels.
