The Present chapter traces the evaluation of social cognitve theory toward a psychology of human agency. The nature of human agency and the mechanisms through which it operates is analyzed in the context of major changes in the conception of human behavior. These theoretical orientations include behaviorism, the tight hold of the psychoanalytic movement on psychology and the pop culture, conceptions of mind as symbol manipulator in the likeness of the linier computer, eliminative physicalism contending that human behavior is shaped and regulated by neurophysiological mechanisms that operate outside one's awareness and control, and the growing ascendancy of human agency in the coevaluation process. The utility of a psychological theory is judged by three criteria: its explanatory power, its predictive power and, in the final analysis, its operative power to effect personal and social change. Social cognitive theory lends itself readily to social applications. Three illustrative applications document the transformative changes in the field of psychotherapy, development of large-scale health field from a disease model to a health model, and global applications that address some of the most urgent worldwide problems.
