Social cognitive theory (SCT) offers a comprehensive framework for comprehending, forecasting, and influencing human behavior, and it serves as the foundation for various intervention strategies (Bandura,1986,1997). At the heart of SCT is “triadic reciprocality”, which refers to the dynamic interac...
Social cognitive theory (SCT) is an important theory used to explain cooperative relationships in the literature on collaborative learning, examining issues such as self-efficacy and expected outcomes, as well as computer usage and Internet behaviors (Compeau and Higgins, 1995, Hsu and Lu, 2004, ...
Determinants are sometimes framed by theory with socio-ecological and social cognitive theory (SCT) the most prevalent (Buttazzoni et al., 2018). Two recent reviews have found extremely varied intervention effectiveness (Pang et al., 2017; Villa-González et al., 2018). Based on this evidence...
