Background: Appropriate maternal feeding behaviors are well known as a health promoting behavior for toddlers because it can support their health and development. According to Pender’sHealth Promotion Model (2006), self-efficacy can influence the health promoting behaviors. Maternal self-efficacy was the judgment of mothers who have toddlers about their capability to perform appropriate maternal feeding behaviors for their toddlers.Objective:This study was aimed to examine the relationship between maternal self-efficacy and maternal feeding behaviors for toddlers in Java Island, Indonesia.Methods: A descriptive correlational research design was undertaken in January to February 2015. One hundred and ten Indonesian mothers who have toddlers and lived in Java Island were obtained through multistage random sampling. The research instruments included Maternal Feeding Behaviors Questionnaire (MFBQ), Demographic Characteristic Questionnaire, andPerceived Maternal Feeding Behaviors Self-efficacy Questionnaire (FBSeQ). The bivariate correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between maternal self-efficacy and maternal feeding behaviors.Results:It was found that there was significant positive relationship between maternal self-efficacy and maternal feeding behaviors at .01 levels. The maternal self-efficacy had moderate relationship with maternal feeding behaviors (r = .490, p ≤ .01).Conclusion:A nursing intervention to promote appropriate maternal feeding behaviors should deal with the maternal self-efficacy. Nurses should assist and motivate Indonesian mothers of toddlers for having adequateself-efficacy in order to perform better maternal feeding behaviors.Keyword: maternal feeding behaviors, maternal self-efficacy, toddler.

This study aimed to verify the impact of servant leadership on innovative behaviour in non-governmental organisations (NGOs). It particularly investigated the role of a mediator for self-efficacy in the relationship between servant leadership and innovative behaviour. This study defined the organisational psychology-behaviour mechanism in non-profit organisations by verifying the moderated mediating effect of vocational calling in the relationship between servant leadership, self-efficacy, and innovative behaviour. The 174 pilot samples used in this study comprised community service participants in NGOs. The analysis verified the hypothesis set through causal correlations among four variables using regression analysis and the PROCESS macro developed by Hayes. Vocational calling played a moderating role in the relationship between servant leadership and self-efficacy, and vocational calling had a conditional effect on the impact of servant leadership on innovative behaviour through self-efficacy. Meanwhile, self-efficacy fully mediated servant leadership and innovative behaviour. Based on the verification of the mechanism of organisational psychology-action, this study sought ways to develop the organisation of NGOs and improve the working environment.

This study aimed to test the association between peer attachment and aggressive behavior, as well as the mediating effect of regulatory emotional self-efficacy on this relationship. A total of 1171 (582 male, 589 female) Chinese adolescents completed self-reported questionnaires that assessed peer attachment, regulatory emotional self-efficacy, and aggressive behavior. Path analysis showed that the negative association between peer attachment and adolescent aggressive behavior was mediated by self-efficacy in managing negative emotions. However, the mediating effect of self-efficacy in expressing positive emotions was nonsignificant. Moreover, there was no significant difference in the indirect paths mentioned above between male and female respondents. These findings highlight self-efficacy in managing negative emotions as a potential mechanism linking peer attachment to adolescent aggressive behavior.
