For this purpose, 300 students (109 males and 191 females) were selected using multi-stage cluster sampling method and answered and Educational Self-Efficacy Scale.To determine the construct validity of Educational Self-Efficacy Scale, factor analysis and convergent validity methods were used. A factor with a special value greater than one was achieved based on scree test which shows the special values graph which this factor together explained 85/44% of the total variance of the test. The concurrent implementation of Pintrich and De Groot Educational Self-Efficacy Scale with students Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (CASES) was used to calculate the convergent validity of Educational Self-Efficacy Scale. The results showed that the correlation coefficient between these two measures is 42/0 which is significant at the level 5 / 0≥P. The reliability ofEducational Self-Efficacy Scale was calculated the internal consistency method and Cronbach's alpha coefficient.The results showed that the reliability of Educational Self-Efficacy is scale is 845/0 that is acceptable and satisfying. It is concluded according to appropriate validity and reliability as well as having globally reputable research background thatPintrich and De Groot Educational Self-Efficacy Scale is a perfect tool to measure self-efficacy.
