This study explores the relationship between numeracy skills and self-efficacy among grade 10 students within the context of the Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) in physics, focusing on linear and parabolic motion. Employing a quantitative descriptive design, the research involved 140 students from a public high school in Bekasi, Indonesia. Instruments included a numeracy test comprising 17 AKM-based physics questions and a self-efficacy questionnaire adapted from Bandura's framework, covering the dimensions of level, generality, and strength. Results indicated that most students (53%) were at the "Basic" level of numeracy performance, while 67% exhibited moderate self-efficacy. A significant positive correlation was found between self-efficacy and numeracy performance (r = 0.743), with the "Strength" dimension showing the strongest correlation (r = 0.716). These findings suggest enhancing self-efficacy, particularly the strength dimension, can improve numeracy skills and AKM readiness. The study underscores the importance of tailored interventions to strengthen self-efficacy and recommends further research into additional factors affecting numeracy performance and interdisciplinary approaches to teaching numeracy across subjects.
