“…Our results reveal that these scales can be reliably used to assess undergraduate students' perceptions of their capabilities in their engineering programs at various levels of specificity. Researchers may use our findings to better understand the role of self‐efficacy in students' performance in engineering courses and to design self‐efficacy‐based interventions to improve performance (e.g., Shuman, Heer, & Fiez, ). Both self‐efficacy scales may serve as tools for the assessment of engineering self‐efficacy when evaluating programs or interventions designed to build students' self‐efficacy.…”
