Abstract
This research aimed to resolve the shortage of available resources that assess Filipino college students' expectations about their ability to perform mathematics skills successfully. This ability is measured using the Mathematics Self-efficacy Scale (MaSS). The scale started with 72-item statements derived from a literature review on mathematics competencies, adapted from existing mathematics self-efficacy questionnaires and surveys from mathematics teachers. The items underwent items analysis, exploratory analysis, confirmatory analysis. Likewise, it went through an internal consistency test to check the validity of the items. The results show that there are four factors which measure the mathematics self-efficacy of college students named as mathematical modeling, mathematic mathematical representation, mathematics communication and use of technology in mathematics. The four-factor MaSS exhibits validity and internal consistencies.
