The concept of self-efficacy refers to the subject’s perceptions and judgments about its abilities to act successfully in a particular situation. An analysis of literature shows that the primary experience of teenagers’ self-efficacy is formed by family. System

measurements. An analysis of the empirical data confirmed the hypothesis. It was found that girls and boys with high efficacy evaluations in conflict situations imagine their parents as authoritative and supportive in difficult circumstances. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that it reveals general factors of adolescents’ self-efficacy in the family functioning. The assessment adolescents’ self-efficacy in the difficult family situations correlates with adolescents’ perception
of their parents. |
