Abstract

University graduate job seekers in Indonesia face intense labor market competition, which may give rise to fear of failure. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-efficacy and social support with fear of failure among job seekers. A quantitative correlational design was employed, involving 314 job seekers under the age of 29 who held a university degree, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using three Likert-type scales: a fear of failure scale adapted from the Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (Conroy et al., 2002), a self-efficacy scale based on the dimensions of level, strength, and generality (Bandura, 1997), and a social support scale based on the dimensions proposed by Cutrona and Russell (1987). Data were analyzed using multiple regression with SPSS version 27. The results showed that self-efficacy and social support were simultaneously and significantly negatively related to fear of failure (R = .572, R² = .327, p < .001), accounting for 32.7% of the variance. Partially, self-efficacy (t = -6.421, p < .001) contributed more strongly than social support (t = -3.473, p < .001) in predicting fear of failure. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening self-efficacy and social support networks as psychological intervention strategies for job seekers navigating a competitive labor market.
