The usefulness of self-efficacy as a predictor of success in cont-rolling heart rate increase with and without biofeedback was investigated in an experimental study on 60 adult subjects. The first part of the study measured heart rate increase control without biofeedback training, the second part measured heart rate increase control with biofeedback training and a posttest measured subsequent heart rate increase control without biofeedback. The results revealed that higher levels of self-efficacy were predictive of success in controlling heart rate increase without biofeedback, but not with biofeedback. © 1991 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
