Self-efficacy, or confidence in one’s ability to do a task, is a key element that affects students’ motivation and performance. For that reason, the main purpose of this study was to collect specific information about students’ self-efficacy and factors affecting it. This includes comparing the differences between three Moroccan universities representing public and private institutions in terms of students’ self-efficacy. A sample of 365 undergraduate students responded to the questionnaire on self-efficacy for self-regulated learning on a 5-point Likert scale. The findings demonstrate that students’ level of self-efficacy is moderate. With regard to the differences between the three universities, a slight difference was found in favor of the private one. Meanwhile, third-year students reported greater self-efficacy than first and second-year students. However, no statistically significant differences were found between male and female students. More importantly, the results reveal that students’ living circumstances during the academic year and their initial motive behind enrolling in university affected their self-efficacy beliefs. Overall, this study provides teachers and practitioners with insights about self-efficacy that could be used to promote students’ success in Moroccan universities.

影响摩洛哥高等教育学生自我效能感的因素

自我效能感或对完成任务的能力的信心是影响学生的动力和表现的关键因素。因此，本研究的主要目的是收集有关学生的自我效能和影响自我效能的因素的具体信息。这包括比较三所代表公立和私立院校的摩洛哥大学在学生自我效能方面的差异。365名大学生样本以5点李克特量表对自我效能感进行自我调节的问卷进行了回答。调查结果表明，学生的自我效能感水平中等。关于三所大学之间的差异，发现私立大学之间存在轻微差异。与此同时，三年级学生的自我效能感比一年级和二年级学生更高。但是，男女生之间没有统计学上的显着差异。更重要的是，研究结果表明，学生在学年期间的生活环境和入学的最初动机影响了他们的自我效能感信念。总的来说，这项研究为教师和从业者提供了关于自我效能感的见解，可用于促进学生在摩洛哥大学中的成功。
