Detailed Explanation
Understanding Self-Efficacy in Bandura's Theory
Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory (later expanded to Social Cognitive Theory) highlights Self-Efficacy as a central motivational construct. It refers to a person's belief in their ability to succeed in specific situations.
- High Self-Efficacy: Students embrace challenges as tasks to be mastered rather than threats to be avoided. They exhibit higher intrinsic motivation, greater resilience, and effective problem-solving strategies.
- Low Self-Efficacy: Students doubt their capabilities, shy away from difficult tasks, dwell on personal deficiencies, and give up quickly when faced with obstacles.
Therefore, statement A accurately reflects the psychological and educational dynamics of self-efficacy in learners.
