If your child wants to do well in college, what are their chances of success if they have not learned the skills to self-regulate their electronics use?

How We Create Behavior Change
At Summerland Camps, campers have a fun summer away from screen based activities. They learn how to socialize and develop interests apart from gaming or social media. For each sport, hobby, or skill we teach, we focus on fundamentals to develop a sense that the participant has really mastered the skill.
Self-efficacy
Self-efficacy is defined as the extent to which a person believes he or she is capable of accomplishing a task under certain conditions (Bandura, 1997). Often campers believe that they are quite capable in one subject (like playing video games) while they, “just can’t get” another (like socializing, or sports). Therefore self-efficacy is not a stable across all areas of performance. Even those of us who are extremely high achievers in one area admit to inability in other areas.
