In the classroom teaching context of English as a foreign language (EFL) writing, The EFL Writing Self-Efficacy Scale,The Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory and an English essay writing test had been employed to investigate the EFL writing self-efficacy, writing anxiety and writing performance of 356 college students with an intention to explore the mediating effects of writing self-efficacy on the relationship between writing anxiety and writing performance.
