Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Albert Bandura's Social Learning (Social Cognitive) Theory, Self-Efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their capability to execute actions necessary to achieve specific goals. This belief significantly influences their motivation, emotional states, and choices.
- Option A is correct: Students with high self-efficacy approach difficult tasks as challenges to be mastered rather than threats to be avoided. They set challenging goals, maintain strong commitment, and increase effort in the face of failure.
- Option B is incorrect: Self-efficacy is not a fixed, genetically inherited trait; rather, it is malleable and develops through mastery experiences, social modeling, social persuasion, and emotional states.
- Option C is incorrect: Students with low self-efficacy typically shy away from difficult tasks, harbor low aspirations, and doubt their capabilities, often selecting very low or unrealistic goals.
- Option D is incorrect: Extensive psychological research confirms that self-efficacy has a profound and direct impact on academic achievement, intrinsic motivation, and resilience.
