ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to find out the relationship between self-efficacy of the students and the level of student unrest in them. The sample size for this study was 782 students of both graduation and master courses of Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh. Student Unrest Measuring -Scale (Dr. Vineeta Khanna, 1980) and Self-Efficacy Scale (Arun Kumar Singh and Shruti Narain, 2014) were used for measurement. It was observed that there is a strong negative correlation between self-efficacy and student unrest (r = -.624), meaning students with high self-efficacy had low levels of unrest and vice versa. It was also seen that there was a significant prediction of student unrest by all the four dimensions of self-efficacy (40.6%). The result also showed that ‘gender’ did not have any mediation effect but ‘age’ and ‘course that the student is admitted to’ were having a significant mediation effect on the relationship between self-efficacy and student unrest.
