Self-Efficacy, Self-EsteemAbstract
Self-Esteem and Self-Efficacy are both considered pillars of Self-concept itself, and students pursuing their higher education are often faced with multiple and increasingly difficult tasks that require them to competently deliver from each task. It is important to note that prior research has shown evidence that elevated levels of self-efficacy are seen in individuals who do well in their higher education. It is also of equal importance to note that self-efficacy and self-Esteem are both impacted by multiple domains of an individual’s life, Social, cultural, psychological, academic, and physical. This study examines the relationship between self-efficacy and self-esteem among college students while also exploring potential differences between undergraduate and postgraduate groups. The sample consists of 60 participants, equally distributed between undergraduate and postgraduate students. Two standardized tests are employed to measure self-esteem and self-efficacy, both of which are self-reported through Google Forms. The findings reveal a significant relationship between self-efficacy and self-esteem among college students. However, no significant differences are observed in self-efficacy and self-esteem between undergraduate and postgraduate groups. The study contributes to our understanding of self-efficacy and self-esteem among college students, highlighting the importance of promoting positive self-perceptions and psychological well-being in educational settings.Metrics
