The research is also aimed to study the level of self-efficacy elements among students. 350 primary level two respondents from five selected primary schools in Johor Bahru district were chosen for this research using cluster sampling technique. The research data was collected using a 5-point likert scale questionnaire adapted from 24-item Sources of Self-Efficacy Scale developed by Usher and Pajares (2009) and Online Learning Self-Efficacy Scale (OLSES) by Zimmerman and Kulikowich (2016). The collected data was analysed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and multiple regressions analysis. The result showed that the overall level of performance accomplishments, vicarious learning experiences and social persuasion among students (n=350) was negatively skewed with a mean score of 3.37 (SD=.72), 3.86 (SD=.86) and 3.46 (SD=.85) respectively. While, the overall level of emotional arousal (n=350) among students was positively skewed with a mean score of 2.66 (SD=.79).
