What is the triadic reciprocal model of behavior? Use the model to explain how the three factors in the model relate to effect behavior.

The triadic reciprocal model of behavior is a model that shows human functioning as shaped by three factors that are reciprocally related: reinforcement, cognitive processes, and behavior. For example, a student is in a statistics test fails the first exam. This causes him to think he is not good at statistics, and lowers his self-efficacy for understanding the theories and concepts. This lower self-efficacy causes him to become nervous for exams, less apt to focus when studying. His poor performance causes the professor to call on him less often in class, as the professor assumes that the student is uninterested and unwilling to try on the exams.
