The questionnaire was administered to elicit answers to the following research objectives: 1. To identify the students self-efficacy and anxiety towards the Malay language; 2. To identify the factors involved in influencing the students’ self-efficacy and anxiety; and 3. To explain students’ self-efficacy and anxiety towards Malay language based on sex, early education and university entry-level qualification. The findings from this study show the influence of psychological factors on students and the teachings and learning implications at school and university level.
