Feedback on ability in counseling, self-efficacy, and persistence on task

Abstract

Self-efficacy in counseling varied with randomly manipulated feedback on abliity, such that the 29 college students who received negative feedback on their ability reported lower self-efficacy than those 16 who received postive feedback. Persistence on task, however, was not related to the type of feedback received.
