Abstract

The main goal of the research was to investigate the role of university students’ self-confidence and from about 3000 students, 341 persons were selected by using Kerjecie and Morgan table and classical sampling method. 153 persons filled the inventories which its validity was confirmed through behavioral sciences academic staffs’ viewpoints at university and its reliability was obtained through Cronbach Alpha Coefficient (0.83). The research results indicated that gender, age, being native and non-native, didn’t make any significant differences in their discretion to prioritize effective factors on academic self-confidence, while students’ academic level was considered as an effective factor. BA students believe that moral and material incentives are the most important factors of their academic self-confidence to participate in research activities while MA students believe that they will acquire academic self-confidence if conducting research activities results in their selection as the top students. Also, Ph.D. students looked for this self-confidence through specific academic activities like edition of scientific papers and participation in joint research projects with community. Therefore, it can be concluded that notice and implement of the right and appropriate policies by the two institutions of university and research are necessary for building academic self-confidence in students.
