ABSTRACT

Executive functions have been defined as the ability to formulating, planning and carrying goals efficiently. On the other hand, the self-efficacy beliefs represent a cognitive source between knowledge and action and determines, among other variables, the success of own actions. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of executive performance function in relation to their perceived selfefficacy. The Self-Efficacy Scale in Academic Behaviors (EACA) and the Neuropsychological Battery on Executive Functions (BANFE-2) were applied in a sample of undergraduate students. A sample of 36 students was divided into three groups according to their perceived self-efficacy in low, satisfactory and high categories. Students with low selfefficacy perception had low scores on academic tasks of understanding, communication, attention and excellence (p ‹.05). Likewise, this group: i) reached the highest number of negative errors (p ‹.05) in the metamemory subtest resulting from the underestimated self-perceived level of performance; ii) the longest time in the classification of cards (p ‹.05); and, iii) the highest number of errors in the Stroop subtest (p ‹.05). It is concluded a relationship between some of the executive functions and perceived self-efficacy. The beliefs and selfperceptions represent a basic factor for the success of their academic activities and decisions taken to face their scholar trajectory.
