Self-efficacy refers to an individual’s belief in their ability to successfully execute tasks and overcome challenges. According to Albert Bandura, self-efficacy is influenced by four key components:
-
Mastery Experiences: Success in previous tasks boosts confidence in future efforts.
-
Vicarious Experiences: Observing others successfully complete tasks enhances belief in one’s abilities.
-
Social Persuasion: Positive feedback and encouragement from others can strengthen self-efficacy.
-
Physiological and Emotional States: Physical and emotional responses (e.g., stress or excitement) can impact one’s belief in their capabilities.
Together, these components contribute to the development and reinforcement of self-efficacy.
