Question

If you score low on the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) you are likely to put in a higher level of effort, persist with an idea, and persevere with a task more than those people who possess high levels of self-efficacy. True or false?

Answer 1

false

Step-by-step explanation:

Self efficacy is concept notable with Albert Bandura. Self efficacy means belief in oneself that he possesses what it takes to accomplish a task. This would mean that an individual is convinced and confident or has what it takes to accomplish a task set before him. This has far reaching impacts on people's lives and could determine how far they would go.

In the example above, a low self efficacy would mean the individual may not want to continue with the initial idea as he does not believe he can accomplish the task.
