3. Demographic variable as gender causes no effect on perception of “CFTB”, but 2 domains of “CFTB” were different within regular teachers.
4. Demographic variable as working years causes high effect on perception of “CFTB”. Scores of teachers of ripe experience were higher than those of teachers of few experience.
