Students with high self-efficacy can regulate their self-motivation and will be able to persist when experiencing difficulties in learning. Eventually, they will have good learning achievements in natural sciences. This study aims to analyze and test the truth of the hypothesis regarding the effect of Self-Efficacy and Learning Motivation on Learning Achievement. The research hypotheses tested include: 1) The effect of self-efficacy and learning motivation together on learning achievement in natural sciences; 2) The Effect of Self-Efficacy on Learning Achievement in Natural Sciences; and 3) The Influence of Learning Motivation on Learning Achievement in Natural Sciences. The research was conducted by survey method.
