This study was aimed to explore levels of perceived self-efficacy, representation of self and psychology, and
relationships among these dimensions in university students attending the first (T1) and the last (T2) year of the
psychology degree course. In detail, at both T1 and T2, we analyzed: 1) levels of empathic, interpersonal-social
communication, and problem solving self-efficacy; 2) representation of actual self and future self; 3) representation
of psychology and the usefulness attribute to it; 4) the influence of self-efficacy beliefs on the representation of
actual and future self and the psychology.
