Self-efficacy & Job Performance


3/17

Banduras Social Cognitive Theory Expanded on Social Learning Theory (Miller &

Dollard, 1941)

Actions and reactions of an individual areinfluenced by observed actions of others

Role of observational learning and socialexperience in personality development

Self-efficacy lies at the heart of this theory


4/17

Three core concepts at the heart of sociallearning theory:-

People can learn through observation (Observational

Learning).

Internal mental states are an essential part of theprocess (Intrinsic Reinforcement).

Just because something has been learned, does notmean that it will result in a change in behavior (TheModeling Process).


5/17

Perceived self-efficacy is defined as peoples beliefs

about their capabilities to produce designated levels

of performance that exercise influence over events

that effect their lives(Bandura, 1994).

High self-efficacy

Belief that one can perform well

Low self-efficacy Belief that one lacks the ability to perform well


6/17

Theory set forth by Bandura in 1986

View that (1) personal factors in the form of

cognition, affect, & biological events, (2) behavior,

and (c) environmental influences createinteractions that result in a triadic reciprocality


7/17

According to Bandura, there are four major

sources of self-efficacy.

Experience or "Enactive Attainment

Modeling or "Vicarious Experience"

Social Persuasion

Psychological Responses

"The most effective way of developing a strong

sense of efficacy is through mastery

experiences," Bandura explained.

Performing a task successfully strengthens our

sense of self-efficacy.

However, failing to adequately deal with a task or

challenge can undermine and weaken self-

efficacy.


9/17

Witnessing other people successfully completing a task

is another important source of self-efficacy.

According to Bandura, "Seeing people similar to oneself

succeed by sustained effort raises observers' beliefs that

they too possess the capabilities master comparable

activities to succeed."


10/17

Bandura also asserted that people could bepersuaded to believe that they have the skillsand capabilities to succeed.

Consider a time when someone saidsomething positive and encouraging thathelped you achieve a goal. Getting verbal

encouragement from others helps peopleovercome self-doubt and instead focus ongiving their best effort to the task at hand.


11/17

Our own responses and emotional reactions tosituations also play an important role in self-efficacy.

Moods, emotional states, physical reactions, andstress levels can all impact how a person feelsabout their personal abilities in a particularsituation.

A person who becomes extremely nervous beforespeaking in public may develop a weak sense ofself-efficacy in these situations.


12/17

People's level of motivation, affective states,and actions are based more on what theybelieve than on what is objectively true.

Effects of self-efficacy beliefs

Choice behavior

Effort expenditure and persistence

Thought patterns and emotional reactions

Humans as producers vs foretellers of behavior


13/17

Tendency to avoid involvement in taskswhere efficacy is low

Generally engage in tasks where efficacy

is highHigh-efficacy/low skill can result in

irreparable harmLow-efficacy/high skill doesnt allow for

growth


14/17

Stronger perceived self-efficacy results inmore vigorous/persistent efforts

Individuals with high self-efficacy may feel

less of a need to invest much effort inpreparation

When applying skills, high-efficacyintensifies and maintains the effort requiredto realize a difficult performanceDifficult for someone with low-efficacy


15/17

Low-efficacy individuals believe things are moredifficult than they actually areCreates stress and narrow vision

High-efficacy people devote attention and energy todemands of the situation and perceive obstacles aschallenges

High-efficacy people attribute failure to insufficient

effort Low-efficacy people relate failure to deficient ability


16/17

People with high self-efficacy act, think,

and feel differently from those with low

self-efficacy. They create their own

futures, rather than foretell it.
