In this paper, I use Personal Report Communication Apprehension, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Social Self-Efficacy Scale to test accountants’ communication apprehension level in different group differences and explore the relationship between communication apprehension and self-efficacy. Empirical results show that communication apprehension scores are significantly different in gender, education level, and profession factors. Although communication apprehension scores are not significantly different in job-level and work-experience, they have negative relationship. About the influence of communication apprehension on self-efficacy, I find self-efficacy (include general self-efficacy and social self-efficacy) has negative correlation with communication apprehension in audit firms. But their differences are not significant. In addition, I employ “Experts Interview” to investigate the reasons of communication apprehension, and provide methods to improve accountants’ communication apprehension level.
