What are the three dimensions used to measure self-efficacy judgments?

The three dimensions used to measure self-efficacy judgments include magnitude, strength, and generality.

Magnitude refers to the level of difficulty that an individual believes they can handle successfully. It assesses the perceived capability concerning specific tasks. For example, a person might believe they can handle a simple task but doubt their ability with a more complex challenge.

Strength represents the confidence an individual has in their ability to perform the task, which can vary in intensity. It examines how certain a person feels about their capabilities, regardless of the task's nature. A person may feel strongly confident in one area but less so in another.

Generality deals with how self-efficacy beliefs transfer across different situations or tasks. This dimension captures whether confidence in one task can influence beliefs in another area, highlighting the interconnected nature of self-efficacy.

Understanding these dimensions is key for therapeutic recreation specialists when designing programs that aim to enhance clients' confidence in various activities and life skills.
