This study investigated the relationship between time perspectives and self-efficacy among Vietnamese high school students. Drawing on Time Perspective Theory and Social Cognitive Theory, five temporal orientations—past-negative, past-positive, present-hedonistic, present-fatalistic, and future—were examined as predictors of self-efficacy. Data from 509 students were analyzed using multiple regression. Results showed that the overall model was significant, explaining 27.1% of the variance in self-efficacy. Future and past-positive orientations were positively associated with self-efficacy, while past-negative orientation was negatively related. Unexpectedly, both present-hedonistic and present-fatalistic orientations also demonstrated positive associations. These findings suggest that adaptive temporal orientations, as well as culturally specific interpretations of present-focused perspectives, play an important role in shaping students’ confidence in their abilities. The study highlights the value of integrating temporal and motivational frameworks to inform educational interventions aimed at fostering resilience and academic success.
