Abstract

Self-efficacy is a person's assessment of themselves or the level of confidence regarding how much ability they have in carrying out a particular task to achieve the expected results. In Real Analysis lectures, especially in the problem of proof, students often feel that they have failed to complete tasks so that most of them get low learning outcomes. One of the factors that causes student failure is their lack of self-confidence in their abilities. The purpose of this study was to analyze students' Self-Efficacy and its effect on Mathematical Proof abilities. The subjects of the study were students of the Mathematics Department, FMIPA, Padang State University, semester January-June 2024. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and regression analysis. In general, it was found that students' self-efficacy was still low and there was a significant relationship between Self-Efficacy and Mathematical Proof, although it is still low. © 2026 Author(s).
