The present study investigated the generalized effects of performance feedback (high and noncontingent) on self-perceptions of self-esteem, self-control, locus of control, sessions of EMG Biofeedback training, and 2 weeks of monitoring their study habits. Overall, the results indicated that subjects receiving high biofeedback contingency received, reported enhanced (a) self-esteem. (b) attributions related to biofeedback performance, and (c) improvement in the studying behaviors monitored These findings were so correlated with actual ENG reduction. The major implications of the study suggest that perceptions of success at and low success) and EMG biofeedback (contingent self-efficacy, and a naturalistic self-control task. The relationship between these variables and actual EMG reduction was investigated
