Calculations were performed to test the requirement analysis (assumption), which consists of normality distribution test and linearity test for relationships. Data were analyses by using Product Moment with SPPS 17 for Windows. The results of data analysis showed a correlation coefficient of 0.718 (p < 0.05). This means that there is a positive relationship between self-efficacy and future orientation. The results showed that the contribution of a given variable of self-efficacy on future orientation wa 51,5 percent, while the remaining 48,5 percent was affected by other factors that not examined.
