自我效能信念和自我评价能力在概念上是重叠的，这两个概念来自职业心理学中的两篇平行文献。本研究采用了三种不同的分析策略，对它们是否代表独特的结构进行了实证评估。在第一个分析中，对这两个结构的测量进行验证性因素分析表明，双因素模型比单因素模型更适合数据。其次，研究发现，LISREL对自我效能感信念的估计与职业兴趣和感知的职业选择之间的相关性比对自我评价能力的估计更高。第三，能力自我估计与兴趣的关系受到自我效能感的中介作用。讨论了这些发现对理论和实践的影响。
Self-efficacy beliefs and self-rated abilities are conceptually overlapping constructs that have emerged from two parallel literatures in career psychology. The present investigation employed three different analytic strategies to assess empirically whether they represent unique constructs. In the first analysis, confirmatory factor analyses of measures of each of these two constructs revealed that a two-factor model fit the data better than did a one-factor model. Second, it was found that LISREL estimates of self-efficacy beliefs were more highly related to vocational interests and perceived career options than were estimates of self-rated abilities. Third, the relation of ability self-estimates to interests was found to be mediated by self-efficacy beliefs. The implications of these findings for theory and practice are considered.
