<![CDATA[This study examined the correlation between foreign language reading anxiety (FLRA) and reading self-efficacy among 40 EFL students at Universitas Ma'arif Lampung. And it is a relationship that hasnot been studied much in this specific Indonesian university context. A quantitative correlational design was used, with data collected through two validated instruments the Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Scale and the Reading Self-Efficacy Questionnaire. Before running Pearson's r, residual normality and linearity tests were conducted, and both assumptions were met. Therefore, the correlation test could proceed cleanly. However, the result was unexpected Pearson's r showed no statistically significant correlation between the two variables (r = 0.032, p = 0.846). The null hypothesis wasn't rejected. Because anxiety and self-efficacy (at least in this sample) appear to operate more independently than theory typically predicts. Future research should explore mediating variables and use larger, more diverse samples to better understand this relationship in Indonesian EFL settings.]]>
