The Academic Self-Efficacy Scale is an application of Self-Efficacy Theory to examine the relationship between self-efficacy and academic performance. The work of Chemers et al. (2001) has been widely cited.

In the
article describing the development and use of the ASE, the authors observed: “As
predicted, academic self-efficacy was significantly and directly related to
academic expectations and academic performance.” (Chemers et al., 2001, p. 61)
An Arabic
version of the ASE developed by Almohazie (2018) revealed Cronbach’s alphas of
.935 for men and .918 for women. The average item mean was 5.38 ( SD = 1.14).
