COMPARISON
LOW SELF EFFICACY HIGH SELF EFFICACY
ADVANTAGES OF SELF EFFICACY THEORY
High levels of self-efficacy enhance one's accomplishments and
feelings of personal well being
Self-efficacy helps one to remain calm when approaching
challenging tasks
High self-efficacy increases one's willingness to experiment with
new ideas
Self-efficacy encourages one to set higher expectations for future
performances
JOINT EFFECTS OF GOALS SETTING AND SELF EFFICACY THEORY
Individual has confidence that given level of performance
will be attained (SELF EFFICACY)
Individual has higher level of job or task
performance
Individual sets higher personal (self set) goal
for his performance
Manager sets difficult,specific goal for
job or task
FOUR WAYS TO INCREASE SELF EFFICACY
ENACTIVE MASTERY
• Gaining relevant experience with the task or job
VICARIOUS MODELING
• Becoming more confident because you see someone else doing the task
VERBAL PERSUASION
• Becoming more confident because someone else convinces you that you have the skills necessary to be successful
AROUSAL
• It leads to an energized state which drives a person to complete a task
OB IMPLICATIONS OF SELF EFFICACY THEORY
TRAINING PROGRAMS
MAKE USE OF ENACTIVE MASTERY
PYGMALION
EFFECT
GALATEA EFFECT
GALATEA EFFECT means that the individual's self-expectations and his opinion about his ability largely determines his performance.
PYGMALION EFFECT is the phenomenon in which the greater the expectation placed upon people, the better they perform.
LIMITATIONS OF SELF EFFICACY THEORY
High self-efficacy beliefs do not always guarantee positive outcome expectations
Self-efficacy beliefs vary greatly between individuals, which makes them very
difficult for researchers to assess
High self-efficacy can sometimes lead to an individual applying less effort to a
particular task. This is because high self-efficacy can sometimes lead to
overconfidence
Basing one's self-efficacy for a new task on results of previous tasks may be misleading
