Explanation:

The concept of self efficacy was proposed for the first time by psychologist Albert Bandura. According to him self –efficacy means the ability of a person to execute courses of action that  are  required to deal with prospective situations. Self-efficacy determines the power of a person to face challenging situations and the choices he or she makes in life.

An individual’s external experiences and self perception are crucial in the development of self-efficacy. People with high self-efficacy tend to give a try in mastering even the hardest tasks rather than trying to avoid them.
