Changes in Self-Efficacy and Health Behavior in Response to a Minimal Contact Community Health Campaign
Abstract
This study suggests that both baseline levels and changes in perceived self-efficacy mediate the adoption of health behaviors in the context of a year-long community health campaign. With a pre- to postevaluation design, using path models to establish the relationships among perceived self-efficacy, campaign exposure, and four separate health behaviors, we establish that (a) exposure to a health campaign increases perceived self-efficacy, (b) baseline and changes in perceived self-efficacy each contribute to the adoption of health behaviors, and (c) baseline and changes in health behavior contribute to the development of perceived self-efficacy. There is a strong negative correlation between baseline self-efficacy and changes in self-efficacy, which may explain previous research in which baseline self-efficacy alone did not predict subsequent behavioral enactments.

“Supported by previous research (29,30) , our findings also suggest that baseline self-efficacy appraisals may be overly optimistic and unconnected to practical skills or opportunities to overcome possible obstacles encountered in personal life or at work.”

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.
