      This study investigated whether self-efficacy influenced students' educational outcomes in introductory-level economics courses. First, this study investigated the correlations between problem-solving self-efficacy, academic self-efficacy, and motivation. Second, this study investigated whether problem-solving and academic self-efficacy served as predictors of students' motivation, test performance, and expected grade. Correlational analyses suggest that problem-solving and academic self-efficacy are correlated with student motivation. Results show that problem-solving self-efficacy was a predictor of student motivation and test performance. Academic self-efficacy and problem-solving self-efficacy were also predictors of their expected grade. Implications and future directions for economics education are also discussed.
