A1 Al-Qatawneh, Khalil Shehadeh AB The major purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between self-efficacy and FL anxiety with the achievement of prep year students at IAU. A sample of 151 participants volunteered for this study representing about 19% of the total population of the preparatory year students at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University - IAU. Both boys and girls completed two surveys, FL Self-Efficacy and FL Anxiety; validity and reliability were established for both measures. The results of the study showed that FL anxiety positively correlated with students' achievement and it may be used for predicting students' achievement (it explained 9.4% of students' achievement). But, self-efficacy failed to predict achievement in this study. It predicted only 6.7% of students' achievement and no correlation between self-efficacy and achievement existed at the significance level of α = 0.05.
