“…Dentre elas, a Self-Efficacy Gauge ou The Gauge (GAGE et al, 1990) se destaca por ter sido criada especialmente para terapeutas ocupacionais. Tal instrumento foi desenvolvido objetivando mensurar o nível de eficácia percebida em uma ampla variedade de atividades nas diferentes áreas de desempenho, assim como sua variação ao longo do tempo (GAGE et al, 1990).…”

“…Este tipo de informação permite aos terapeutas saber se seus clientes acreditam ou não serem capazes de desenvolver determinadas habilidades, e, assim, escolher metas de tratamento mais realistas (GAGE et al, 1990). Segundo Gage e Polatajko (1994), terapeutas devem compreender que a aquisição de uma habilidade, na ausência da crença pessoal em desempenhá-la, não é suficiente para melhorar o desempenho ocupacional a despeito dos esforços empreendidos pelo profissional responsável.…”

GALVÃO, B. A. P.; LAGE, N. V.; RODRIGUES, A. A. C. Transtorno do desenvolvimento da coordenação e senso de auto-eficácia: implicações para a prática da terapia ocupacional. Rev. Ter. Ocup. Univ. São Paulo, v.19, n. 1, p. 12-19, jan./abr. 2008. RESUMO:No transtorno do desenvolvimento da coordenação há um prejuízo acentuado no desenvolvimento das habilidades motoras (grossas e/ou finas) de crianças, com impacto na participação em atividades típicas da infância. As conseqüências do transtorno também incluem restrição na interação social e baixo senso de auto-eficácia. Terapeutas ocupacionais, embora habilitados a avaliar e tratar crianças com esse perfil, aparentam desconhecer a importância do senso de auto-eficácia, assim como seus instrumentos de avaliação. Desta forma, o objetivo desta revisão é apontar a relação entre o desempenho motor e o senso de eficácia de crianças com TDC em idade escolar, bem como suas possíveis implicações para a prática da Terapia Ocupacional.

“…In contrast, the current study waited 6 weeks between pre-and post-test to be consistent with the length of the energy conservation course. During the reliability study for the SelfEfficacy Gauge participants were asked about 'recent life events and changes' both at the test and the retest occasions (Gage et al, 1994). They found a lower ICC for individuals who experienced a 'life event or change' than those who did not.…”

“…Self-efficacy is defined as how confidant an individual is in performing certain behaviours (Bandura, 1982;Schwartz et al, 1996). In an earlier study, Mathiowetz et al (2001) measured participants' perceived selfefficacy for a variety of functional tasks using the Self-Efficacy Gauge (Gage et al, 1994). Self-efficacy increased significantly as a result of the energy conservation course.…”

The purpose of the study was to determine the test-retest reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity of the Self-Efficacy for Performing Energy Conservation Strategies Assessment (SEPECSA) for persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). The current study was part of a larger study (Mathiowetz et al., in review) to determine the effects of the Packer et al. (1995) energy conservation course. Thirty-six individuals were recruited from the local MS society. Participants completed the SEPECSA three times with a six-week control period between the first two assessments and the six-week Packer course between the second and third assessments. The test and retest correlation was high (r = .776, ICC = .771) indicating good reliability of the SEPECSA. Construct validity was supported by the significant increase in SEPECSA score after the Packer et al. course. The results of the study demonstrated that the SEPECSA is a reliable and valid assessment for individuals diagnosed with MS. Limitations of this study included its confinement within a larger study and the eight individuals who did not complete this study in its entirety. Future research will include a follow-up study of individuals who completed the course to determine the use and effectiveness of the energy conservation strategies.

“…Valued resources could be targeted to individuals in needs. However, the professional community requires a tool that would provide insight into the individual's work self-efficacy belief This information would facilitate the targeting of self-efficacy enhancing cognitive/behavioral treatment and focused occupational rehabilitation designed to challenge the individual' low self-efficacy belief (Arnstein, 2000;Gage, Noh, Polatajko, & Kaspar, 1994).…”

Work self-efficacy of individuals injured on the job

Each year thousands of individuals are injured on the job. With effective medical treatment, musculoskeletal injuries heal and most individuals returned to· work; however, some do not make the transition from medical treatment back to work. Through selfefficacy theory Bandura' s ( 1977) postulates that individuals maintain considerable influence over the outcome of their experience based on their self-perceptions. However, research is lacking on whether individuals with higher levels of work self-efficacy are more likely to return to work sooner following an injury than individuals with lower levels of work self-efficacy. Therefore, through this exploratory research, the Return to Work Self-Efficacy Scale was developed and tested through in-person interviews with a convenience sample of 19 participants who were injured on the job; were in receipt of Workers' Compensation benefits; and were attending their final treatment at an Occupation Rehabilitation Program, Canadian Back Institute. Analysis revealed that individuals with a high level of work self-efficacy, also presented with a high level of coping with pain self-efficacy, a high level of physical function self-efficacy, a high level of coping with symptoms self-efficacy. These individuals were more likely to return to work following injury than their lower level of self-efficacy counterparts. The research concludes with recommendations for further study.
