Self Efficacy and Self Management Flashcards
What is self-efficacy according to Bandura?
It is the extent or strength of one’s belief in their ability to attain goals, particularly in the context of exercise and health behavior.
How is self-efficacy a dynamic process?
It can change over time due to various factors like personal experiences, environment, and changes in daily circumstances.
What are the three factors in the social cognitive theory model?
Personal factors, behavior, and environment.
How do personal factors influence behavior change in social cognitive theory?
They include the individual’s abilities, belief system, and values that impact their readiness for behavior change.
What role does the environment play in behavior change according to social cognitive theory?
The environment can either facilitate or hinder behavior change through factors like access to exercise spaces or support from others.
What is reciprocal determinism?
It is the interaction between an individual, their behavior, and their environment, where each can influence the others.
How do environment and situation differ in social cognitive theory?
Environment refers to physical and social surroundings, while the situation is the perception of those surroundings related to behavior.
What is behavioral capacity?
It is the potential to be successful in behavior change based on the skills and knowledge of an individual.
What is observational learning?
It is learning to perform a skill by watching others, such as following a group exercise class instructor.
How does reinforcement affect behavior change?
Positive reinforcement (e.g., praise) encourages behavior change, while negative reinforcement (e.g., time constraints) can hinder it.
What is the difference between expectations and expectancy in behavior change?
Expectations are the anticipated outcomes of a behavior (e.g., improved health), while expectancy refers to the perceived value of those outcomes.
What is self-regulation in the context of behavior change?
It involves setting goals and monitoring progress to control behavior, such as tracking gym visits on a calendar.
Why is self-efficacy important for behavior change?
It reflects a person’s confidence in their ability to succeed, which is crucial for initiating and maintaining behavior change.
What is self-efficacy?
It is the extent of one’s belief in their ability to attain goals, especially in the context of exercise and health behavior.
How is self-efficacy relevant to physical therapy?
It influences a patient’s confidence in their ability to follow through with exercise programs and manage their health conditions.
What is the Self-Efficacy for Exercise scale?
A measure developed to assess an individual’s confidence in their ability to exercise, particularly validated for older adults.
How many questions are on the Self-Efficacy for Exercise scale?
Nine questions that assess confidence in exercising despite various potential barriers (e.g., weather, pain, boredom).
What is the Self-Efficacy for Home Exercise Programs (SEHEP)?
A measure that assesses a patient’s confidence in performing prescribed exercises at home, addressing specific challenges they may face.
How does the SEHEP differ from the Self-Efficacy for Exercise scale?
The SEHEP focuses specifically on confidence in home exercise adherence, using a different set of items and a 6-point scale.
What R-squared value indicates a strong relationship between the SEHEP and the Self-Efficacy for Exercise scale?
An R-squared value of 0.71, suggesting a good correlation between the two measures.
What was the R-squared value for the correlation between self-efficacy scores and actual adherence to home exercise programs?
An R-squared value of 0.15, indicating a weak correlation.
What did the systematic review on self-efficacy and chronic pain outcomes reveal?
It found significant relationships between self-efficacy and various outcomes related to chronic pain, including impairment and pain severity.
How many studies were included in the systematic review analyzing self-efficacy in chronic pain management?
83 papers with a total of 86 samples were analyzed.
