Detailed explanation-1: -Examples of High Self-Efficacy Some examples of strong self-efficacy include: A person struggling to manage a chronic illness feels confident that they can get back on track and improve their health by working hard and following their doctor’s recommendations.
Detailed explanation-2: -A person with high self-efficacy views challenges as things that are supposed to be mastered rather than threats to avoid. These people are able to recover from failure faster and are more likely to attribute failure to a lack of effort. They approach threatening situations with the belief that they can control them.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bandura (1997) proposed four sources of self-efficacy: mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, and physiological and affective states.
Detailed explanation-4: -Another example of low self-efficacy is if someone does set a goal to do well on a test, but does not follow through with studying since they feel it is inevitable to not do well on it.
