Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
There is a negative correlation between general self-efficacy and trait anxiety, state anxiety, and test anxiety, consistent with Bandura's theoretical inference about self-efficacy. According to Bandura's theory, the self includes at least two interrelated components of self-reinforcement and self-efficacy. Self-reinforcing refers to the reward or punishment obtained by an individual's behavior at or above a certain standard. Self-efficacy is a perception of whether a person's behavior can successfully reach a certain standard.
Therefore, self-efficacy involves the individual's ability to handle various life events. At the same time, self-efficacy also involves the emotions generated by individuals in dealing with various life events. Studies have shown that subjects with anxiety usually have lower self-efficacy, or subjects with high self-efficacy are less likely to have various anxiety. It can be understood that anxious subjects are prone to helplessness in their lives, so they will cognitively believe that all efforts are futile. On the contrary, subjects with high self-efficacy are good at dealing with various life events, and even if they encounter difficulties, they will try to overcome them and are not prone to anxiety.
