“…This approach was taken based on the notion that for self-efficacy to predict performance outcome, self-efficacy ratings should be based on competencies that are important in the attainment of the specific behaviour of interest (Bandura, 1997;Lane and Lane, 2001;Lane et al, 2002).…”

“…A qualitative analysis was used to group the self-efficacy items into a number of themes (see Lane et al, 2002). The themes identified were self-efficacy towards: maintaining motivation, planning, obtaining support, understanding theory, organising time, and effectively writing the dissertation.…”

“…Qualitative results identified that self-efficacy was conceptualised in six themes: 1) maintaining motivation, 2) planning, 3) obtaining support, 4) understanding theory, 5) organising time, and 6) effectively writing the dissertation. These themes were developed into a 30-item questionnaire using the same approach as Lane, Hall and Lane (2002). Participants completed the self-efficacy inventory six weeks before the dissertation submission date.…”

The present study investigated relationships between self-efficacy and dissertation performance among a sample of undergraduate sports studies students. Sixty Level 3 student volunteers completed an open-ended questionnaire to assess competencies needed for dissertation success. Qualitative results identified that self-efficacy was conceptualised in six themes: 1) maintaining motivation, 2) planning, 3) obtaining support, 4) understanding theory, 5) organising time, and 6) effectively writing the dissertation. These themes were developed into a 30-item questionnaire using the same approach as Lane, Hall and Lane (2002). Participants completed the self-efficacy inventory six weeks before the dissertation submission date. Results indicated that self-efficacy toward obtaining support (r = .30, p < .05), understanding theory (r = .35, p < .05), and writing skills (r = .30, p < .05) were associated with good grades. The sum of self-efficacy factors significantly correlated with performance (r = .27, p < .05). Discriminant function analysis results indicated that 80 per cent of failing students could be correctly classified from self-efficacy scores. Findings lend support to previous research that shows self-efficacy can significantly predict academic performance. We suggest that interventions designed to enhance motivation towards studying for an undergraduate dissertation should focus on enhancing self-efficacy.Lane, A.M.,

“…The questionnaire consisted of items adapted from Lane, Hall and Lane's (2002) measure of self-efficacy, which was based on competencies identified by Sport Studies students as desirable for successful performance in statistics. The phrase 'how confident are you in your ability to [insert competency] was used (Lane, Hall and Lane 2002) and is consistent with previous research (Bandura 1977). …”

. G. Stratton@swansea.ac.uk (01792 606544) T. A. Hilland et al. 2 Smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable morbidity and death in England, and is an addiction largely taken up in youth. Given the need for early prevention strategies, this formative study evaluated sports coaches' perceptions of a preliminary SmokeFree Sports (SFS) campaign. The research was conducted in five youth clubs with eight coaches who attended a Level 1 Brief Intervention Training workshop. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, and a questionnaire assessed the impact of the Brief Intervention Training on coaches' self-efficacy to deliver smoke free messages at pre, post and follow-up. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and pen profiles were constructed to provide an overview of coaches' perspectives of SFS with regards to: a) Brief Intervention Training, b) SFS implementation and c) suggestions from improvements. One-way repeated measures ANOVA revealed a significant increase in coaches' self-efficacy towards knowledge and delivery of smoke free messages from pre to post Brief Intervention Training that was maintained at follow-up.This formative work suggests that there is potential in educating coaches and using sports to deliver health education around smoking. Recommendations to improve the Brief Intervention Training included making it more interactive and specific with respect to sport and particular age groups. SFS could also be trialled in structured setting and with other sports. These findings will be used to inform and tailor the design and development of a larger, definitive SFS intervention.
