Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Seeing other people perform successfullystrengt hen self-efficacy, particularly if the people we observe are similar to us in their abilities. In effect, we are saying, If they can do it, so can I. In contrast, seeing others fail can lower self-efficacy: If they can't do it, neither can I.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Our judgment about our self-efficacy is based on four sources of information. They are performance attainment, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, physiological and emotional arousal.
