    Based on Bandura's theory that those who believe they can do what they set out to do are healthier, more efficient and more successful than those with low self-efficacy expectations. This theory has stimulated programs of research in education, clinical and developmental psychology, medicine and related fields, athletics and business organization.

    This volume is the result of over 20 years of psychological research by the author. It argues that those with high self-efficacy expectancies (the belief that one can achieve what one sets out to achieve) are healthier, more effective, and generally more successful than those with low self-efficacy expectancies. After a discussion of what self-efficacy is and where it comes from, the text discusses how belief in one's abilities affects developmental, mental functioning, and health; as well as its applications to the areas of psychopathology, athletics, business, and international issues.
