Who proposed that self-efficacy affects which behaviors a person chooses to imitate?

Maslow is best known for his hierarchy of needs theory, which focuses on human motivation and personal development rather than the influence of self-efficacy on behavior. His work does not address how individuals choose behaviors to imitate based on their perceptions of efficacy.

Rogers is associated with humanistic psychology and the concept of unconditional positive regard, emphasizing personal growth and self-actualization. Although he discusses the importance of self-concept, he does not specifically link self-efficacy to the imitation of behaviors as Bandura does.

Allport was a pioneering psychologist in the study of personality and is known for his trait theory. His work centers around personality traits and their influence on behavior, but he does not focus on the role of self-efficacy in behavior imitation, making him unrelated to the question.
