Abstract: Teachers are among the most important players in the successful implementation of inclusive education. This study aimed to examine Saudi Arabian teachers’ intentions to implement inclusive education and the influence of their demographics, attitudes, self-efficacy, perception of support, and concerns related to inclusive education on their intention. This study included 125 in-service special and general education teachers. The regression analysis results revealed that teachers’ self-efficacy and majors (special education vs. general education) significantly influenced their intentions to implement inclusive education in regular classrooms. Finally, we discuss the results and their implications for research and practice.
