Self-efficacy and moral justification (I): The developmental pattern

Abstract

This study was examined to explore the difference of age and gender in self-efficacy, moral disengagement, and antisocial behavior. A total of 1191 students were administered multifaceted questionnaires measuring self-efficacy (Bandura, 1997), moral disengagement (Bandura, Barbaranelli, Caprara, & Pastorelli, 1996) and antisocial conduct (Kwak, 1995). A principal components factor analysis with varimax orthogonal rotation revealed a five factor structures in self-efficacy scale and a three factor structures in moral disengagement scale. The difference of age and gender were revealed in the subdomains of self-efficacy, moral justification and antisocial behavior. 'Self-regulatory efficacy' was the most influential factor into antisocial behavior. In compared with other research the results of this study were detaily explained and discussed.
