The relationship of self-efficacy to students' final exam results

Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and students’ final exam results which is the result of the final assessment of the semester. The population of this study is the students at MAN 1 Lampung Selatan and MTsN 1 Lampung Selatan. The subject of this study was a superior grade student in the school. The number of subjects in this study was 107 students. Self-efficacy is measured with a self-efficacy scale based on Bandura’s theory. Students’ final exam results data is based on the results of a semester final assessment, even math subjects. The data analysis technique used is the analysis of the Bivariate Pearson correlation with an equivalent significance of 0.05. This study resulted in a correlation coefficient (r = 0.414) with Sig. = 0.000. Since the Sig.= 0.000 < 0.05 the H₀ is rejected. This means that there is a significant relationship between self-efficacy and students’ final exam results.
