DOI: 10.4018/978-1-6684-5039-0.ch012
Abstract
This study predicts students' self-efficacy in learning science of their success in science. To this end, the study was designed in the predictive correlation research model. The study group consists of 340 Turkish students. Science Self-Efficacy Belief Scale for Secondary School Students was used as a data collection tool in the study. Moreover, students' end-of-semester grade point averages in science were accepted as their science success scores. Pearson correlation and regression analysis were utilised in data analysis. At the end of the study, it was determined that there is a positive, intermediate relationship between students' success in science and their self-efficacy in learning science. Their self-efficacy in learning science is a significant predictor of success in science.
