Most of the images of reality on which we base our actions are really based on vicarious experience Picture Quote #1

In order to succeed, people need a sense of self-efficacy, to struggle together with resilience to meet the inevitable obstacles and inequities of life Picture Quote #1

Moral justification is a powerful disengagement mechanism. Destructive conduct is made personally and socially acceptable by portraying it in the service of moral ends. This is why most appeals against violent means usually fall on deaf ears Picture Quote #1

Students judge how well they might do in a chemistry course from knowing how peers, who performed comparably to them in physics, fared in chemistry Picture Quote #1

People infer high self-efficacy from successes achieved through minimal effort on difficult tasks, but they infer low self-efficacy if they had to work hard under favorable conditions to master relatively easy tasks Picture Quote #1

[Children] receive direct instruction from time to time about the appropriateness of various social comparisons Picture Quote #1

Except for events that carry great weight, it is not experience per se, but how they match expectations, that governs their emotional impact Picture Quote #1

People not only gain understanding through reflection, they evaluate and alter their own thinking Picture Quote #1

Once established, reputations do not easily change Picture Quote #1

One cannot afford to be a realist Picture Quote #1

Humans are producers of their life circumstance not just products of them Picture Quote #1

People’s beliefs about their abilities have a profound effect on those abilities Picture Quote #1

Very often we developed a better grasp of the subjects than the over worked teachers Picture Quote #1

Psychology cannot tell people how they ought to live their lives. It can however, provide them with the means for effecting personal and social change Picture Quote #1

If you look at our theories of social pathology and then at the dismal conditions in which children grow up in our ghettos, you would predict that all of them would be on drugs or psychological basket cases. Yet if you use criteria like gainful employment, forming partnerships and life without crime, you will find that most of those kids make it Picture Quote #1

Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do. Fortunately, most human behavior is learned observationally through modeling: from observing others one forms an idea of how new behaviors are performed, and on later occasions this coded information serves as a guide for action Picture Quote #1

People who believe they have the power to exercise some measure of control over their lives are healthier, more effective and more successful than those who lack faith in their ability to effect changes in their lives Picture Quote #1

What people think, believe, and feel affects how they behave. The natural and extrinsic effects of their actions, in turn, partly determine their thought patterns and affective reactions Picture Quote #1

People with high assurance in their capabilities approach difficult tasks as challenges to be mastered rather than as threats to be avoided Picture Quote #1

We are more heavily invested in the theories of failure than we are in the theories of success Picture Quote #1

A theory that denies that thoughts can regulate actions does not lend itself readily to the explanation of complex human behavior Picture Quote #1

By sticking it out through tough times, people emerge from adversity with a stronger sense of efficacy Picture Quote #1

People who regard themselves as highly efficacious act, think, and feel differently from those who perceive themselves as inefficacious. They produce their own future, rather than simply foretell it Picture Quote #1
