Gaining insight into one's un...

Gaining insight into one's underlying motives, it seems, is more like a belief conversion than a self-discovery process

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Self-efficacy is the belief i...

Self-efficacy is the belief in one's capabilities to organize and execute the sources of action required to manage prospective situations.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Such knowledge is probably ga...

Such knowledge is probably gained in several ways. One process undoubtedly operates through social comparison of success and failure experiences. Children repeatedly observe their own behavior and the attainments of others

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

If you look at our theories o...

If you look at our theories of social pathology and then at the dismal conditions in which children grow up in our ghettos, you would predict that all of them would be on drugs or psychological basket cases. Yet if you use criteria like gainful employment, forming partnerships and life without crime, you will find that most of those kids make it.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

People who underestimate thei...

People who underestimate their capabilities also bear costs, although, as already noted, these are more likely to take self-limiting rather than aversive forms. By failing to cultivate personal potentialities and constricting their activities, such persons cut themselves off from many rewarding experiences. Should they attempt tasks having evaluative significance, they create internal obstacles to effective performance by approaching them with unnerving self-doubts

One cannot afford to be a realist.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Dysfunctions can occur in eac...

Dysfunctions can occur in each of the self-regulatory subfunctions-in how personal experiences are self-monitored and cognitively processed, in the evaluative self-standards that are adopted, and in the evaluative self-reactions to one's own behavior.. Problems at any one of these points can create self-dissatisfactions and dejection. dysfunctions in all aspects of the self system are most apt to produce the most chronic self-disparagement and despondency

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

The effects of outcome expect...

The effects of outcome expectancies on performance motivation are partly governed by self-beliefs of efficacy

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

People regulate their level a...

People regulate their level and distribution of effort in accordance with the effects they expect their actions to have. As a result, their behavior is better predicted from their beliefs than from the actual consequences of their actions

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

People who are insecure about...

People who are insecure about themselves will avoid social comparisons that are potentially threatening to their self-esteem

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Psychology cannot tell people...

Psychology cannot tell people how they ought to live their lives. It can however, provide them with the means for effecting personal and social change.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

People’s beliefs about their abilities have a profound effect on those abilities.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Even the self-assured will raise their perceived self-efficacy if models teach them better ways of doing things.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

This has increased with the tremendous technological advances in communications. We have a vast new world of images brought into our sitting rooms electronically. Most of the images of reality on which we base our actions are really based on vicarious experience. This has increased with the tremendous technological advances in communications. We have a vast new world of images brought into our sitting-rooms electronically.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Perceived self-efficacy also ...

Perceived self-efficacy also shapes causal thinking. In seeking solutions to difficult problems, those who perceived themselves as highly efficacious are inclined to attribute their failures to insufficient effort, whereas those of comparable skills but lower perceived self-efficacy ascribe their failures to deficient ability

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Indeed there are many competent people who are plagued by a sense of inefficacy, and many less competent ones who remain unperturbed by impending threats because they are self-assured of their coping capabilities

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

After people become convinced...

After people become convinced they have what it takes to succeed, they persevere in the face of adversity and quickly rebound from setbacks. By sticking it out through tough times, they emerge stronger from adversity.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

In the self-appraisal of efficacy, there are many sources of information that must be processed and weighed through self-referent thought

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

Persons who have a strong sense of efficacy deploy their attention and effort to the demands of the situation and are spurred by obstacles to greater effort.

Albert Bandura 123 quotes

The human condition is better improved by altering detrimental circumstances and personal perspectives than by trying to alter personal outlooks, while ignoring the very circumstances that serve to nourish them
