- the references you added have some strange formatting ("How to cite Bandura..."; "Database ", "Psychology4"). You should fix this
- I think you copied the final text instead of the source, so it lost the original refereces. I've copied this section of the original onto this page so you can get include the references. This is why there are numbers like [29][30] in your version.

Parents' sense of academic efficacy for their child is linked to their children's scholastic achievement. If the parents have higher perceived academic capabilities and aspirations for their child, the child itself will share those same beliefs. This promotes academic self-efficacy for the child, and in turn, leads to scholastic achievement. It also leads to prosocial behavior, and reduces vulnerability to feelings of futility and depression. [1] There is a relationship between low self-efficacy and depression. [2]
Self-efficacy theory has been applied to the career area to examine why women are underrepresented in male-dominated STEM Fields such as mathematics, engineering, and science. It was found that gender differences in self-efficacy expectancies importantly influence the career-related behaviors and career choices of young women. [3]
In a study, the majority of a group of students questioned felt they had a difficulty with listening in class situations. Instructors then helped strengthen their listening skills by making them aware about how the use of different strategies could produce better outcomes. This way, their levels of self-efficacy were improved as they continued to figure out what strategies worked for them.[4]
At the National Kaohsiung First University of Science and Technology in Taiwan, researchers investigated the correlations between general Internet self-efficacy (GISE), Web-specific self-efficacy (WSE), and e-service usage. Researchers concluded that GISE directly affects the WSE of a consumer, which in turn shows a strong correlation with e-service usage. These findings are significant for future consumer targeting and marketing.[5]
Furthermore, self-efficacy has been included as one of the four factors of core self-evaluation, one's fundamental appraisal of oneself, along with locus of control, neuroticism, and self-esteem.[6] Core self-evaluation has shown to predict job satisfaction and job performance.[6][7][8][9][10]
