The Organizational Context of Individual Efficacy.

Fuller, Bruce; And Others

Review of Educational Research, v52 n1 p7-30 Spr 1982

The authors review existing research which links three sets of variables: (1) organizational characteristics, (2) how efficacy operates within the individual, and (3) the individual and organizational effects with which efficacy has been empirically connected. Efficacy is defined in terms of the individual's expectancy of gaining valued outcomes through personal effort. (Author/LC)
