Albert Bandura
Image
Gaining insight into one's underlying motives, it seems, is more like a belief conversion than a self-discovery process
Albert Bandura
Image
Humans are producers of their life circumstance not just products of them.
Albert Bandura
Image
The presence of many interacting influences, including the attainments of others, create further leeway in how one's performances and outcomes are cognitively appraised
Albert Bandura
Image
We are more heavily invested in the theories of failure than we are in the theories of success.
Albert Bandura
Image
People infer high self-efficacy from successes achieved through minimal effort on difficult tasks, but they infer low self-efficacy if they had to work hard under favorable conditions to master relatively easy tasks
Albert Bandura
Image
Perceived self-inefficacy predicts avoidance of academic activities whereas anxiety does not
Albert Bandura
