RODRIGUEZ VERA, Montserrat; FIGUEROA-VARELA, Marlen e MUNOZ SALAZAR, Luisa Patricia. Academic Self-efficacy, Performance and Access to Higher Education in a Pandemic Context. Rev. Costarric. Psic [online]. 2023, vol.42, n.1, pp.9-24. ISSN 1659-2913. http://dx.doi.org/10.22544/rcps.v42i01.01.
Psychology has verified that belief in one’s own abilities is related to performance, and it is important to study this perception of self-efficacy in higher education. This research analyzes the relationship between academic self-efficacy, performance (NEM, PTU, approval expectations) according to type of university access. The study was quantitative, with a cross-sectional and non probabilistic convenience sample. The sample was 780 Chilean students divided into a group of regular access (82.7%) and a pro-inclusion group (17.3%). The instruments applied were the Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale and academic performance measures. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, Pearson´s r correlation test, Student´s t-test and one-way ANOVA. The results indicate that there are differences between self-efficacy and performance measures according to the type of university access.
The pro-inclusion group presented higher self-efficacy, higher NEM and lower PTU. Both groups present similar approval expectations. We conclude that self-efficacy varies according to the type of access to the university and according to performance measures. Students with higher self efficacy will have higher approval expectations despite adversity.
