This study aims to investigate the effect of motivation on self-efficacy among English department students with the mediating roles of learning styles and learning strategies. A 5-point Likert scale questionnaire has been adopted from the Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB), the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) Version 7.0, the Perceptual Learning Style Preference Questionnaire (PLSPQ) and the Academic Self-Efficacy Scales were employed, and 109 students(N=109) took part in the current study. The sampling procedure adopted is voluntary sampling. The questionnaire showed excellent alpha Cronbach's reliability and KMO validity. The regression and mediation analysis conducted on the collected data show a statistically significant positive impact of motivation on self-efficacy through a meditation of learning styles and learning strategies. Therefore, it is highly recommended for students, teachers, and administrators to focus on motivation to increase self-efficacy.
