In this study, the researchers used the descriptive correlative approach, using the following tools: the statistical self- Efficacy scale, the academic hardiness scale, and the statistics anxiety scale developed by the researchers, and appropriate statistical methods for data analysis. Results of the study showed that there was a statistically significant positive relationship at the significance level (≤0.05) between statistical self-efficacy and academic hardiness, there was a statistically significant negative correlation at the significance level (≤0.05) between academic hardiness and statistics anxiety, there was a statistically significant negative correlation at the level of significance (≤0.05) between statistical self-efficacy and statistics anxiety, there was a direct effect of statistical self-efficacy on the academic hardiness, there was a direct effect of the academic hardiness on statistics anxiety, and there was an indirect effect of statistical self-efficacy on statistics anxiety through the academic hardiness.
