wagon train, in U.S. history, a group of covered wagons used to convey people and supplies to the West before the coming of the railroad. The wagon replaced the pack, or horse, train in land commerce as soon as proper roads had been built.
Alone, self-observation is insufficient because motivation depends on oneâs expectations of outcomes and efficacy (Zimmerman & Schunk, 2001). Self-evaluation: Self-evaluation compares an individual's current performance with a desired performance or goal.
People generally avoid tasks where self-efficacy is low, but undertake tasks where self-efficacy is high. When self-efficacy is significantly beyond actual ability, it leads to an overestimation of the ability to complete tasks.
