Mark knows that he is an excellent liar but he doesn't feel very good about himself in general. Mark is likely to score <u>high</u> on measures of self-esteem and <u>high</u> on measures of self-efficacy. Mark is confident and aware of his abilities, this is an indication of a high self esteem and his believe in his capacity to lie effectively is an indication of high self-efficacy in that regards.
self-esteem is used to describe a person's overall sense of self-worth or personal value. In other words, how much you appreciate and like yourself while Self-efficacy reflects confidence in the ability to exert control over one's own motivation, behavior, and social environment. Mark will score high on both because he seems to be convinced about how excellent he is at lying.
