Positive Cognitive Triad- a link between Self Efficacy and Resilience, Prosocial behavior and Hostility

Abstract

ABSTRACT The research examined into the impact of the newly arising concept Positive Cognitive Triad in mediating the relationship between psychological dimensions including self-efficacy and pro-social behaviour, resilience, and hostility levels in adolescents. To see how one's positive cognitive processes associates with their self-esteem and, in addition, other characteristics. The findings from 166 Children suggest a significant positive link between cognitive triad and self efficacy (r =.40, p < 0.01), as well as a positive correlation between positive cognitive triad and resilience (r =.212, p < 0.05). The positive cognitive triad appears to have an important role in mediating the relationship between self-efficacy and resilience. However, there was no evidence of a its link between Prosocial conduct and hostility. Furthermore, regression analysis also revealed that the Cognitive triad accounted for 17% of the variance in self efficacy.
