It has been reported that there is a positive correlation between academic self-concept, overall academic self-concept, and achieving high academic performance. However, several conflicting reports are valid in different domains of academic self-concept. Therefore, this systematic literature review explores the overarching factors influencing students' academic self-concept. The search results from three search engines, namely the Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), ResearchGate, and ScienceDirect, have identified 16 recent articles on the factors influencing students' academic self-concept. The synthesis of these articles identifies five main factors influencing students' academic self-concept, namely (1) student factors, (2) teacher factors, (3) school factors, (4) parental factors, and (5) social factors. A total of 18 sub-themes have been identified from these five main themes. Further research may explore the long-term effects of interventions to enhance self-concept, investigate cultural variations in self-concept development, and delve deeper into the interaction between emotions and academic self-concept. Limitations of the study and implications for research and practice are discussed.
