Abstract
Abstract This article aims to examine how the ability of self-efficacy helps students solve mathematical problems. The researchers examines several findings related to the ability of self- efficacy in research journals. The method used is literature study. Journal studies are carried out by searching and gathering literature studies with the keyword improvement in mathematical problem-solving abilities and self-efficacy using learning models, the relationship of problem-solving abilities with student self-efficacy, analysis of problem-solving abilities and self-efficacy and learning strategies to improve problem-solving abilities and self-efficacy on Google Scholar and Indonesian Journal Website. The researcher examines ideas, opinions, or findings contained in literacy so as to provide theoretical information related to the ability of self-efficacy in solving mathematical problems. The articles reviewed were 23 articles. The finding shows that there are four main sources that influence one^s self-efficacy in solving problems, namely the experience of solving problems, the experiences of others, verbal persuasion, and psychological conditions. Meanwhile, the factors that cause the high and low self-efficacy of a person are gender, age, level of education and experience.
