N2 - The significant of the current study is evident through limited research on the relationship between self-handicapping and self-efficacy. The study aimed at exploring self-handicapping and its relationship with self-efficacy and some demographic variables among a sample of Yarmouk University Jordanian students. The sample consisted of (793) male and female students at Yarmouk University that was selected randomly. To achieve the objectives of the study, two tools were used; the Rhodewalt (1990) Self-handicapping Scale and Almohsen (2006) Self-efficacy Scale. Reliability and validity indicators were obtained before using the scales. The results showed that self-handicapping among Yarmouk University students was average, and no statistically significant differences in self-handicapping due to gender, specialty and achievement. The results also showed a statistically negative correlation between the scores of self-handicapping as a whole and self-efficacy score and all of its dimensions except the behavioral efficacy dimension.
