What is Self Efficacy?

"Self-Efficacy is defined as people's beliefs

about their capabilities to produce

designated levels of performance that

exercise influence over events that

affect their lives."

-Albert Bandura

Self-efficacy beliefs determine

how people think, feel,

motivate themselves and

behave. Self-efficacy is more

than self-confidence.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Why is it Important?

High Self-Efficacy

  • Willing to try new tasks
  • Welcomes and seeks challenges
  • Perseveres when things get tough.

Self-efficacy is a person's judgement about being able to perform a particular task. Unlike self-esteem, self-efficacy reflect how confident students are about performing SPECIFIC tasks.

Therefore, a high self-efficacy in one are may not coincide with high self-efficacy in another area.

Low Self-Efficacy

  • Avoidance behavior (of tasks)
  • Give up easily
  • Becomes anxious with tasks because they anticipate failure

What Affects Our Self Efficacy?

If a student has been successful at a skill in the past, they will probably believe that they will succeed at that skill in the future.

Past Performance

It is important to stress that self-efficacy is NOT itself an ability, but rather a perception of one's capabilities. Even though you can be influenced by extrinsic sources, it is purely intrinsic in that nobody can raise your self-efficacy except you.

When a student sees another student accomplish a task, the vicarious experience of observing a model can also have a strong influence on self-efficacy.

Vicarious Experiences

Telling your students, "You can do this."
