Mothers as one of parents has important influence on children schooling. Their self-efficacy is considered to be a predictor to such influence. The objectives of this study are to examine differences of mothers’ self-efficacy that exist based on their educational level and the effect of mothers’ self-efficacy on adolescents’ academic achievement. An ex post facto design was chosen to achieve the objectives. 104 eleventh graders and their mothers participated as respondents. In addition to adolescents’ learning score records, a 24 valid and reliable item questionnaire was administrated to mothers asking them to rate their self-efficacy on influencing their adolescents’ academic achievement. An ANOVA test and simple linear regression were utilized to analyze the collected data. The study concluded that self-efficacy has positive relationship with education level and mother’s self-efficacy has positive effect on adolescents’ academic achievement.
