Hence, the study collected data using questionnaire survey and scale evaluation methods and conducted data analysis through statistical analysis. Specific methods comprise descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. This paper found that academic achievement is positively impacted by the self-efficacy of college students. Accordingly, this study offers a thorough grasp of the role that college students' self-efficacy plays in their academic success as well as the factors that influence it. At the same time, the research results can also provide reference and inspiration for educators to further improve teaching methods and educational strategies.
