Summary: A significant contribution to the field of psychology.
Comment: Albert Bandura explores the self-system throughout lifespan. Self-regulation and perceived self-efficacy help people to adjust to realities of each life's stage, from early childhood till aging and preparation to death.
Perceived self-efficacy refers to beliefs in one's capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to produce given attainments.
I have found this book very helpful and well structured. Bandura gives a broad hint to the reader, and offers answers to some of the most important and advanced issues that each of us encounters during life. The book stimulates a better awareness of humans' potentials, and encourages to rivisit our constructs.
Bandura's study on self-efficacy is supported by the citation of 47 pages of references. It is highly consistent and fascinating; and this book is an outstanding tool for improving our quality of life.

Summary: Bandura 's Self-Efficacy Helps Understand Human Nature
Comment: Dr. Bandura has written an excellent book for scholars, researchers, as well as the casual observer of human nature and behavior. It is comprehensive and well documented. He helps one understand why some people seem to get what they want and need out of life and others do not. I give it my highest recommendation.

Summary: Easy to read, provides much food for thought!
Comment: Self-efficacy and perceived self-efficacy are Bandura's terms for what we all experience in our own lives: Some of us can; some of us can but think we can't; and some of us can't but think we can. Finding the right balance is important. This book is easy to read, easy to understand, and makes Bandura's concepts personal
