In 1994, R.W. Lent, S.D. Brown, and G. Hackett developed the Social Cognitive Career Theory: "Self-efficacy beliefs and outcome expectancies both predict academic and career interests" (Gybsers, 2009, p. 34). The theory is based on the foundational work of theorist A. Bandura.
Self-efficacy beliefs: people's judgments of their capabilities to organize and execute courses of action required to attain designated types of performance
Outcome expectancies: personal beliefs about probable response outcomes
- A person's beliefs about their abilities and about probably outcomes lead to the development of interests;
- Interests predict goals that lead to the selection and practice of activities;
- Activities lead to goal fulfillment and feelings of success
