研究人员认为，一般自我效能感(GSE)对组织理论、研究和实践都有很大的贡献。遗憾的是，在常用的GSE测量上进行的结构效度工作有限，突出了诸如内容效度低和多维性等潜在问题。作者编制了新的一般自我效能量表(NGSE)，并与Sherer等人编制的一般自我效能量表(SGSE)进行了心理测量和效度比较。两个国家的研究发现，NGSE量表比SGSE量表具有更高的结构效度。尽管NGSE量表比SGSE量表短，但它具有很高的信度，能够预测各种任务在不同情境下的特定自我效能感(SSE)，并缓和了先前表现对后续SSE形成的影响。对未来组织研究的含义、局限性和方向进行了讨论。
Researchers have suggested that general self-efficacy (GSE) can substantially contribute to organizational theory, research, and practice. Unfortunately, the limited construct validity work conducted on commonly used GSE measures has highlighted such potential problems as low content validity and multidimensionality. The authors developed a new GSE (NGSE) scale and compared its psychometric properties and validity to that of the Sherer et al, General Self-Efficacy Scale (SGSE). Studies in two countries found that the NGSE scale has higher construct validity than the SGSE scale. Although shorter than the SGSE scale, the NGSE scale demonstrated high reliability, predicted specific self-efficacy (SSE) for a variety of tasks in various contexts, and moderated the influence of previous performance on subsequent SSE formation. Implications, limitations, and directions for future organizational research are discussed.
