| Self-Efficacy / Situational Temptations
Self-efficacy (Bandura, 1977) conceptualizes a person's
perceived ability to perform on a task as a mediator of performance on future tasks. A
change in the level of self-efficacy can predict a lasting change in behavior if there are
adequate incentives and skills. The Transtheoretical model employs an overall confidence
score to assess an individual's self-efficacy. Situational temptations assess how tempted
people are to engage in a problem behavior in a certain situation.
