The respondents of this study were the Diploma students of Universiti Teknologi MARA, Kelantan. A total of 300 sets of questionnaires were distributed and only 260 sets of questionnaires were returned. The Diploma students had also taken their BEL260 Midterm Test and Listening Test papers. The findings show that majority of the respondents have low reading and listening self-efficacy. This trait is also discovered to be directly related to their reading and listening scores.
