Sources of Self-Efficacy Influencing Academic Performance of Engineering Students (2013, background): “Researchers had found that self-efficacy beliefs could significantly affect academic achievement and the persistence in the field of engineering [3,15,23,27].”
Measuring Undergraduate Students' Engineering Self‐Efficacy: A Validation Study (2016, background): “Although some researchers (e.g., Ponton, 2002; Ponton et al., 2001) have emphasized the need to develop engineering students’ self-efficacy, engineering educators have yet to understand the role of self-efficacy in students’ academic and professional performances.”
Women Engineering Students and Self‐Efficacy: A Multi‐Year, Multi‐Institution Study of Women Engineering Student Self‐Efficacy (2009, background): “Ponton et al. (2001) discuss how sources of self-efficacy can be positively influenced in engineering classrooms.”
Breaking it Down: Engineering Student STEM Confidence at the Intersection of Race/Ethnicity and Gender (2014, background): “Through forms of social persuasion, faculty can enhance self-confidence and self-efficacy by letting students know that they are capable of particular skills (Marra et al. 2012; Ponton et al. 2001).”
