Introduction: Self-regulation as a cognitive strategy and self-efficacy as a motivational belief are considered as fundamental concepts of Bandura's social cognitive theory. The purpose of the current study was to predict self-efficacy beliefs based on students’ self-regulation strategies.
Methods: The research method used was correlation. Out of 177 undergraduate’s students in (academic years of) 2014-2015 in Hamadan Bu-Ali Sina University, using Cochran’s formula and systematic random sampling, and 122 students were selected as sample. To collect the data Owen and Forman’s (1988) self-regulation strategies and Connell’s (1985) self-efficacy beliefs questionnaires were used. To answer the research questions, using SPSS software, Pearson correlation co-efficient and multiple regression analysis using stepwise method were run.
Results: The results showed that there was a positive significant relationship between academic self-regulation strategies and academic self-efficacy of the students. The results also showed that the strategies of cognitive self-regulation and internal self-regulation could significantly explain and predict the students’ academic self-efficacy.
Conclusion: Hence, it can be concluded that via improving the strategies of cognitive self-regulation and internal self-regulation, we may promote the students’ academic self-efficacy.
