Self-Efficacy is Multidimensional, as are People With Blindness
In this episode, join host Clairissa Richardson as she critically examines the concept of self-efficacy as a psychological construct in the lives of people with blindness or visual impairment. Clairissa utilizes self-efficacy and choice theory as a lens by which the expectations of health rehabilitation are deconstructed as limiting perceptions of self-efficacy targets for people with BVI. Clairissa uses a combination of research, narrative storytelling, and audio oral history to re-energize the concept of self-efficacy for people with BVI as a powerful tool to disrupt control based deficits and redistribute power in clinical settings. The use of reality therapy as a treatment modality and self-developed non-empirical scale are also introduced in this episode.
