Self-efficacy in health promotion research and practice: conceptualization and measurement
Abstract
This article examines the self-efficacy construct as it relates to health promotion research and practice. A conceptual analysis is provided to identify the consequences of self-efficacy and differentiate it from related constructs, and an operational analysis is presented to identify the relevant aspects of self-efficacy measurement which include level, strength and generality. Various considerations for the development of self-efficacy items including the need for behavioral specificity, the use of formative research and the wording of instructions are presented. We conclude by reiterating that there are no all purpose approaches to the measurement of self-efficacy—self-efficacy measures are by necessity tailored to specific domains of functioning and, in many cases, to specific populations. Methodological rigor in the assessment of self-efficacy requires application of elicitation research to identify appropriate competencies and challenges, and the casting of items in standardized and validated formats.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
