5. Self-regulation Reinforcement has no direct effects (cognitively mediated or even vicarious) Self-reinforcement is as important as external (internalized standards and processes of reward and punishment) ***Self-regulation overcomes stimulus control

6. Self-efficacy 2 types of expectancies 2 types of expectancies Outcome expectancy Self-efficacy SE determines: SE determines: behavior to be performed amount of effort expended persistence in the face of adversity, etc.
