Description
Summary:PURPOSE: The researchers presents a modified version of the Tripartite Efficacy model proposed by Lent and Lopez (2002). wherein in the new model, the relational efficacy perceptions, other-efficacy and relation-inferred self-efficacy (RISE), predicts self-efficacy, instead of simply being inter-related. Also, in this model, self-efficacy plays a mediating role between the other-efficacy and RISE and outcome expectancy. METHOD: This model was tested on 350 thesis-writers (53% were females) using test questionnaires, where they rated their other-efficacy, RISE, self-efficacy and outcome expectancy in relation their thesis-writing and mentors. Structural equation modeling was used to determine whether the model was acceptable, based on multiple fit indices. Results showed that each path of the model was significant and that the model has good fit, as shown by fit index values that met acceptable criteria.
