For Student’s Motivation: The Role of Coping

Abstract

Motivation is what we think we can do. According to the socio-cognitive approach, self-efficacy is one of the six most essential constituents of reason. This feeling encompasses all of the individual's beliefs about their abilities to implement the behaviors they deem helpful to achieve the desired results. The Sense of Perceived Personal Efficacy influences the choice of activities, performance, the expenditure of effort, persistence in the face of difficulties, positive or negative thoughts, and emotional reactions. These beliefs regulate human behavior according to four processes, primarily the affective process (coping principally). The Sense of Self-Efficacy is based on four factors: lived experience, vicarious experience, verbal persuasion, emotional or physiological states, and sources of information about the Sense of Self-Efficacy. This article summarizes research that revolves around the following questions: is there a link between feelings of Perceived Self-Efficacy and coping strategies; can we act on the student's motivation through his Sense of Perceived Self-Efficacy possibly modifiable by coping strategies?
