Summary:This study investigated the influence of parenting style on the self-efficacy of high school students based on the students' academic and social self-efficacy skills. Four groups of students aged 12 to 19 served as respondents for the study. 70 males and 81 females participated for a total of 151 participants. The data was divided according to the socio-economic status of the children's parents, 39 came from low-income bracket, 62 from the middle income bracket and 50 from the high income bracket. As a quantitative research using descriptive statistics, data was gathered through survey questionnaires the Academic Self Efficacy Questionnaires (Iligan), Social Self-Efficacy test (Bandura) and Parenting Style (Chua, Chua and Tan). It was evaluated using the Analysis of Covariance Method. An alpha level of .05 was set to determine the significant level of influence of parenting style on the academic and social self-efficacy of students while age, gender and socio-economic status were controlled. As a result, parenting styles have no influence on the self-efficacy of students.
