Abstract: The purpose of the current study was: 1) to examine the relationship between academic efficacy and academic achievement among students of different ethnic groups, 2) to examine if students from different ethnic groups differ in their degree of academic efficacy, 3) to examine if students' ethnicity, gender, family structure, or socioeconomic status made a significant contribution to academic efficacy beyond the influence of modeling, verbal, and prior mastery sources of academic efficacy information, and 4) to examine the differential contribution of modeling, verbal persuasion, and prior mastery sources of academic efficacy to students' academic efficacy based on ethnicity and gender.
