“…Tool to measure parenting self-efficacy (TOPSE) TOPSE is a parenting programme evaluation tool that is sensitive and specific to parenting in the United Kingdom and takes into account the views and experiences of parents from a diverse range of cultural, educational and social backgrounds Kendall and Bloomfield, 2005). The theoretical underpinning of TOPSE is based on the self-efficacy theory developed by Albert Bandura (Bandura, 1982;1989).…”

“…Grounded in social cognitive theory (Bandura, 1989;, parenting self-efficacy is broadly defined as an individual's appraisal of his or her competence in the parenting role (Coleman and Karraker, 2000;Kendall and Bloomfield, 2005). Greater perceived competence in parenting is associated with the tendency to assess situations as less problematic and to feel confident that difficulties can be resolved (Mash and Johnston, 1990;Coleman and Karraker, 1998;Coleman and Karraker, 2003).…”

Aim: To explore whether changes in parenting self-efficacy after attending a parenting programme are related to changes in parenting stress and child behaviour. Background: Adverse parenting is a risk factor in the development of a range of health and behavioural problems in childhood and is predictive of poor adult outcomes. Strategies for supporting parents are recognised as an effective way to improve the health, well-being and development of children. Parenting is influenced by many factors including the behaviour and characteristics of the child, the health and psychological well-being of the parent and the contextual influences of stress and support. Parenting difficulties are a major source of stress for parents, and parenting self-efficacy has been shown to be an important buffer against parenting stress. Methods: In all, 63 parents who had a child under the age of 10 years took part in the research. Of those, 58 returned completed measures of parenting self-efficacy, parenting stress and child behaviour at the start of a parenting programme and 37 at three-month followup. Findings: Improvements in parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress were found at follow-up, but there was less evidence for improvements in child behaviour. The findings clearly suggest a relationship between parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress; parents who are feeling less efficacious experience higher levels of stress, whereas greater parenting self-efficacy is related to less stress. This study adds to the evidence that parent outcomes may be a more reliable measure of programme effectiveness than child outcomes at least in the short term.

“…General self-efficacy beliefs can influence domain specific self-efficacy beliefs, both can influence to each other, so the same as a domain self-efficacy beliefs can influence general self-efficacy beliefs [9], [11], [12]. Domain specific self-efficacy has been measured in many diverse areas such as reading self-efficacy [13], parenting self-efficacy [14].…”

Abstract:Psychologists in general, show interest in personal causation-how people organize, plan and bring change in their lives, how confident people feel and face new challenges. This research aims to investigate on employees' self-efficacy level in Chinese companies. It provides major points employees need in the development of their abilities. Questionnaires are provided for employees in "X1" and "X2" respectively Electronics Co.; Ltd, (Shenzhen) and Investment Management Co.L.td" (Beijing). We use excel to analyze the results obtained. The findings are significant and motivational. More than 90% of employees have positive level of self-efficacy to perform task given. The more employees in the companies, the lower self-efficacy on their tasks. Employees' level of self-efficacy plays a critical role and impacts on performance in the organizations. This study indicates a relationship between given tasks among employees-the high number of employees in an organization tends to reduce self-efficacy's level, and negatively influences on performance. This survey's limitations derived from unavailability of sufficient funds and language barriers. But questionnaire was orally translated in Chinese.

“…This section of the questionnaire was developed based on the Preschool-Age Physical Activity Questionnaire (Dwyer, Hardy, Peat, & Baur, 2011), where the reliability of responses ranged from 0.31-1.00 (ICC (2, 1)) for continuous measures and 0.60-0.97 (κ) for categorical measures. The final section of the questionnaire was developed based on The Tool to Measure Parenting Self-Efficacy (TOPSE) (Kendall & Bloomfield, 2005). Internal reliability coefficients for the subscales ranged between 0.80-0.89 and external reliability coefficients ranged from 0.58-0.88.…”
