Clinical observation indicates that self-efficacy, although generally linked with maintaining smoking cessation, can be excessive.
In the present study, this phenomenon was explicitly investigated by adding the squared component of self-efficacy to the logistic regression analyses for a treatment sample (n = 381) to predict long-term success.
Quitters with very high posttreatment self-efficacy were found to be at a greater risk for unsuccessful smoking cessation than quitters with merely high posttreatment self-efficacy, and by accounting for this phenomenon, long-term success was better predicted. No such relation was found for self-efficacy change.
It is possible that quitters with very high levels of self-efficacy overestimate their capacity to quit and thereby neglect the use of coping skills and possibly engage in more high-risk situations.
临床观察表明，自我效能感虽然通常与维持戒烟状态相关，但也可能过高。
在本研究中，通过在逻辑回归分析中加入自我效能感的平方项，对一个治疗样本（n = 381）进行明确研究，以预测长期戒烟成功情况。
发现治疗后自我效能感非常高的戒烟者，比起治疗后自我效能感仅处于高水平的戒烟者，戒烟失败的风险更大，并且考虑到这一现象后，对长期戒烟成功情况的预测更好。自我效能感的变化未发现此类关系。
自我效能感水平非常高的戒烟者有可能高估了自己的戒烟能力，从而忽视应对技巧的运用，并且可能置身于更多高风险情境中。
