Role of Self-Efficacy and Self-Concept Beliefs in Mathematical Problem Solving: A Path Analysis.
Pajares, Frank; Miller, M. David
Journal of Educational Psychology, v86 n2 p193-203 Jun 1994
Path analysis was used to test the predictive and mediational roles of self-efficacy beliefs in mathematics problem solving for 350 undergraduates. The predictive role of self-efficacy supports the hypothesized role of self-efficacy in the social cognitive theory of A. Bandura (1986). (SLD)
