Why is self-efficacy crucial for cognitive learning theory?
Self-efficacy hampers the learning process by increasing overconfidence, making cognitive learning theory irrelevant.
Self-efficacy determines one's belief in their abilities, influencing effort and persistence towards tasks thereby affecting cognitive learning processes.
Self-efficacy is not important in cognitive learning theory as it only pertains to self-perception.
Self-efficacy mainly affects emotional wellbeing and has little connection with cognitive learning.
