Cognitive self-efficacy in relation to personal mastery and goal setting across the life span.
Jane M. Berry,Robin L. West +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrative review of empirical studies of cognitive self-efficacy from childhood through old age is presented, where issues of definition and measurement are addressed and the relation of selfefficacy to personal mastery is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Everyday memory performance across the life span: effects of age and noncognitive individual differences.
TL;DR: Age was consistently the most significant predictor of memory performance, followed by vocabulary and gender, and these data suggest that when health samples of volunteers serve as research subjects, these individual differences can affect some memory test scores, but age remains the best overall predictor ofMemory performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Efficacy and Mastery: Its Application to Issues of Environmental Control, Cognition, and Aging
Duana C. Welch,Robin L. West +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a selective review of the literature relevant to Bandura's theory of self-efficacy emphasizes studies where mastery experiences are used with adult populations to promote selfefficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Name recall performance across the adult life-span.
Thomas H. Crook,Robin L. West +1 more
TL;DR: The results showed consistent age-related declines in name recall, and the largest declines were evident for the old-old (over 70), although there were also significant performance differences between the young and middle-aged groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
The link between memory performance, self-assessment, and affective status
TL;DR: Canonical correlations indicated that the memory performance scores were not related to the affective measures nor to the scales of self-assessed memory ability, suggesting that investigations of memory performance which rely onSelf-assessment should also measure affective status.
