The purpose of this research is to obtain a description of what factors that students feel most important in their self-efficacy and to obtain a description of how students self-efficacy in algebraic relation and function. This research used a qualitative research method and case study design. Data collection techniques used were questionnaire and interview. The subjects in this study were students of 10th grade in a senior high school in Bandung. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the main factor that students feel most important in their self-efficacy is mastery experience, followed by physical and emotional states. Most of the students have good self-efficacy on the dimensions of magnitude and strength, but still lack on the dimensions of generality in the topic of algebraic relation and function.
