This study set out to examine to what extent a set of psychological, health and socio-demographic factors are associated with self-efficacy (SE) in a large sample of over 12,000 participants over a two-year period. We were interested in the correlates of self-efficacy (criterion variable) with gender, age, education and occupation, the Big-Five personality factors and cognitive ability, as well as mental and physical health (predictor variables). Regression analyses showed that four of the Big-Five personality factors (extraversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness, and openness), cognitive ability, mental and physical health, gender, education and occupation were all significant and independent predictors of self-efficacy, accounting for 23% of the variance of the outcome variable. Personality variables, particularly Neuroticism and Conscientiousness, were the most powerful predictors of SE two years later. The implications for encouraging SE in individuals are discussed.
本研究旨在探讨在超过 12000 名参与者的两年期间，一组心理、健康和社会人口因素在多大程度上与自我效能感（SE）相关。我们对自我效能感（因变量）与性别、年龄、教育程度和职业、大五人格因素和认知能力以及心理健康和身体健康（预测变量）的相关性感兴趣。回归分析表明，大五人格因素中的四个因素（外向性、神经质、尽责性和开放性）、认知能力、心理健康和身体健康、性别、教育程度和职业都是自我效能感的重要且独立的预测因素，占因变量方差的 23%。人格变量，特别是神经质和尽责性，是两年后 SE 的最有力预测因素。讨论了鼓励个体自我效能感的意义。
