This study aimed to examine the impact of self-efficacy on primary school students’ learning motivation. A quantitative research approach with a simple linear regression design was employed. The sample consisted of 71 fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-grade students from Primary School, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a validated questionnaire measuring self-efficacy and learning motivation and analyzed using SPSS. The results revealed a significant positive effect of self-efficacy on students’ learning motivation. The self-efficacy contributed to students' learning motivation. These findings suggest that strengthening self-efficacy can play a crucial role in enhancing students’ motivation to learn, particularly at the primary school level. The study highlights the importance of integrating self-efficacy-building strategies into early education to foster better academic engagement and outcomes.
