Transition phase is a challenging stage
in the life of Engineering Youth. The problem of
psychological distress such as stress, anxiety,
depression has been exaggerated in this phase
of life. A youth is surrounded by many
Psychological distresses such as adjustment with
the new environment, Academic Stress, Peer
pressures, family expectation, and financial
deficit etc. Youth’s Self-efficacy acts as a survivor
in this demanding phase of life. Self-efficacy is
the ability to belief in one’s own self. The aim of
the present study is to find out the relationship
between Self-efficacy, Stress, Anxiety, Depression
and all-inclusive Psychological distress of
engineering Youth from various disciplines.
Pearson correlation, regression coefficient and
Independent t-test is used to find out the
relationship and difference between Self-efficacy
(Independent variable) and Psychological
distress (Dependent variable) of engineering
Youth from various disciplines. A significant
negative relationship was found between
Independent and dependent variable. A high selfefficacious
group has lesser psychological
distress as comparison to low self-efficacious
group of students. The regulation of self-help
training programs which focuses on
strengthening the mindful activities should be
encompasses in the educational curriculum to
enhance self-belief of the students.
