Abstract

This study aims to investigate the ability of emotional self-efficacy in predicting subjective well-being among a sample of students at al-Falah University. The sample consisted of 233 male and female undergraduate students & 32 male and female MBA graduate students from al- Falah University. The results revealed that the study samples have a high level of emotional self-efficacy and subjective well-being. The results of the study also noted an increase of emotional self-efficacy subscales (using and managing your own emotions, identifying and understanding your own emotions) increases subjective well-being.

The study also found that there are no statistically significant differences at the level 0.05 or less between males and females on emotional self-efficacy and subjective well-being. The results also demonstrated significant differences between students from different disciplines in some emotional self-efficacy subscales. In addition, there are significant differences between students from different levels of study on some subscales. As for subjective well-being, scale results showed that there are significant differences between students from different disciplines on the subscales and the total score. In addition, there are significant differences between students of different study levels on some subscales.
