- Major sources of efficacy information include performance accomplishments, vicarious experiences, social or verbal persuasion, and physiological arousal.
- Bandura's four-stage modeling process includes attention, retention, motor reproduction, and motivation.
- Knowledge of strategies for building confidence and efficacy is essential for performance accomplishments.
- Visuomotor behavioral rehearsal (VMBR) has been shown to reduce gametime anxiety and enhance recovery times and future performance in psychological intervention studies.
