Abstract

Self-efficacy is essentially the belief in our own ability to control our own behavior, emotions and motivations. It is our belief in our ability to solve a problem, reach a goal, complete a task and achieve what we set out to do. Adolescents with high self-efficacy take difficult tasks as challenges to be mastered, rather than threats to be avoided. Such an efficious outlook fosters intrinsic interest and deep engrossment in activities. In this paper an effort has been made to study about the Self-efficacy of Secondary School students. The researcher had selected 800 students (400 boys and 400 girls) as sample from fourty Secondary Schools (20 Provincialised and 20 Private) of Morigaon District, Assam. This study is based on primary and secondary data. Self –efficacy Scale was used for collecting data.
