A Venn diagram showing the relationship between self-concept, self-efficacy, and self-esteem.

"Self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in his or her capacity to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments (Bandura, 1977, 1986, 1997). Self-efficacy reflects confidence in the ability to exert control over one's own motivation, behavior, and social environment."[1] See also: Agency (psychology) and Interpersonal skills and Social intelligence

According to La Trobe University: "Psychologists have found that if a person has lower levels of self-efficacy they are more likely to focus on feelings of failure rather than success. People with higher levels of self-efficacy are more likely to cope better in adverse situations (Park and Folkman, 1997)."[2]

A person's self-efficacy is related to their self-concept which is the image a person has of themselves.[3]

Visualization and confidence building

See also: Visualization (psychology) and Confidence and Courage

In psychology, visualization is the process of creating mental images or rehearsing movements in your mind. It's also known as mental imagery.[4]

Visualization is often used in sport psychology where the athlete mentally rehearses a perfect performance. Research indicates that people who engage in positive visualization tend to exhibit higher levels of self-confidence and they are more apt to pursue their goals with determination.[5][6] Visualization is also used for stress management and anxiety reduction.[7]

How self-efficacy changes self-identity

See also: Identity (psychology) and Skill and Interpersonal skills and Communication skills and Emotional intelligence

As far as Identity (psychology), Adams and Marshall (1996) established that identity formation provides five functions:[8]

1. A structure and order to self-knowledge. (Self-knowledge: Understanding your one's emotions, desires, abilities, and limitations). See: Self-concept and Self-awareness and Self-efficacy and Skill

2. A sense of consistency and coherence to beliefs, goals, and self-knowledge

3. A sense of continuity for one’s history and future

4. Goals and direction

5. A sense of personal control of their choices and outcomes. See: Agency (psychology) and Will (psychology)

Self-efficacy significantly affects self-identity by influencing how a person perceives their capabilities and competence in various areas of life which shapes their overall self-image and determine the type and difficulty of the goals they set for themselves. This strongly influences to how they see themselves as a person. A strong sense of self-efficacy can cause a more positive self-identity, whereas low self-efficacy can result in a more negative self-perception.[9]

Core self-evaluations and self-efficacy

See also: Core self-evaluations

Core self-evaluations (CSE) is a psychological "theory that includes four personality dimensions: self-esteem, self-efficacy, locus of control" and neuroticism.[10][11][12] "Core self-evaluations are instinctive judgments that we all make about ourselves and our lives."[13]
