The Lost ARC / Unit 8 ARC 203 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Four Sources of Self-Efficacy
Captions available
The idea
Bandura identified four sources of self-efficacy: mastery experiences, vicarious experience, verbal persuasion, and how people read their own physical and emotional states.
In practice
Watching a peer succeed, a credible mentor saying "you can," and reading a racing heart as excitement rather than fear.
Where people slip
Mastery remains the foundation, so the book urges challenges achievable with effort, not guaranteed ones.
