Abstract: This study describes preliminary efforts to develop and validate a multidimensional measure of Bandura’s concept of human agency applied to work settings. Exploratory factor analysis of N = 374 responses revealed the four hypothesized factors. Criterion relations with previously validated measures of self-efficacy, self-control, self-determination, and personal mastery are reported.
