Regarding the scientific operation of student autonomy development, goal-setting, and academic resilience, which of the following psychological statements is most authentic and scientifically valid?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Albert Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in their capability to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments.
- High Self-Efficacy: Students who possess high self-efficacy view challenging tasks as hurdles to be mastered rather than threats to be avoided. They set themselves challenging goals and maintain strong commitment to them, recover quickly from setbacks, and attribute failure to insufficient effort or deficient knowledge.
- Why Option A is Correct: It aligns directly with Bandura's postulates that strong efficacy enhances human accomplishment and personal well-being in many ways.
- Why other options are incorrect: Self-efficacy is modifiable and developed through mastery experiences, social modeling, social persuasion, and psychological states, rather than being purely genetic (Option B). Low self-efficacy typically leads to avoidance of challenges (Option C), and intelligence (IQ) alone does not dictate motivation without the mediating role of self-beliefs (Option D).
