Abstract

= 871 participants of an entrepreneurship training intervention. We find that training increases the level of self-efficacy in the short term and that the stability of self-efficacy develops over time during the transfer process. Furthermore, the level of self-efficacy becomes a stronger predictor of transfer performance over time as it becomes more stable. Our results suggest that both properties of self-efficacy develop over time, and the joint consideration of both properties better explains training transfer. (PsycInfo Database Record
