According to Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy, what are the 4 factors that effect self-confidence
1) performance accomplishments
2) vicarious experiences
3) verbal persuasion

In Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy, define:
• performance accomplishments
• vicarious experiences
• verbal persuasion
• emotional arousal
• performance accomplishments - performer is reminded of previous success, increased confidence = increased performance
• vicarious experiences - the performer observes another performer of a similar ability performing the skill successfully
• verbal persuasion - performer receives positive external verbal feedback
• emotional arousal - the performer understands the impact of arousal on performance / can control arousal
