Book Title
Self-Efficacy: The Exercise of Control
Book Description
I learned about Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, and the concept of self-efficacy, while I was in graduate school. This particular book was published in 1997, the year that I received my PhD. The theory and specific ideas surrounding sources of self-efficacy in different domains of living, and its implications for health, relationship functioning and vocational success continue to fascinate me and fuel my work.
