Action regulation in old age: Time samples from everyday contexts
نویسنده
چکیده
The operation of self-ef cacy beliefs was investigated in a group of 81 participants between 73 and 97 years of age with intensive time samples including activities carried out at the moment a signal was received, their subjective dif culty, and concurrent mood in everyday life. In a two-level approach, occasion-level and person-level effects could be modelled simultaneously. Within individuals, productive activities were perceived more dif cult, on average, than nonproductive ones. Furthermore, perceived dif culty was lower the more positive concurrent mood was rated. Variance in these intra-individual slopes was partially explained by inter-individual differences in self-belief of ef cacy regarding everyday activities.
