This study aims to measure the decision-making levels of junior high school novice music teachers in Jinan, China, comparing significant differences based on gender, educational qualification, and school type, and exploring other influencing factors. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 300 junior high school novice music teachers, and the results showed that their overall decision-making level was moderate (M = 3.308).
