Popis: Academic self-efficacy has been researched that it causes positive effects on students’ academic achievement, and professional identity might be related to academic achievements in some ways. However, little research has explored the mediating role of academic self-efficacy in the relationship between professional identity and academic achievement. Our research aims to find out how professional identity and academic achievement affect academic achievement. The further exploration is whether academic self-efficacy is a mediator between them. In order to examine this, 253 university students were invited to complete an online questionnaire that contained several dimensions of professional identity and academic self-efficacy. However, academic achievement was assessed by means of GPA and major ranking. The analysis results show that there is a positive correlation between every two of them and university students’ academic self-efficacy partially mediated, which means with it promotes students’ achievement through professional identity.
