The general perception of self-efficacy in young and old people was taken as the basis for the study of the differences among self-reported prospective and self-reported retrospective memory. The participants were 642 aged between 16 and 81 years old (26,62±13,89), who have answered the Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the General Perception of Self-efficacy Scale (GPSES), and the Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (PRMQ-10). Self-efficacy showed higher correlation with self-reported prospective memory failures while years of formal education and age correlated with self-reported retrospective memory failures. As a further result it was verified reciprocity between self-reported memory failures and performance in memory tasks, suggesting a strong association between the dimensions of self-efficacy and prospective memory. Keywords: self-efficacy; memory; self-report. |
