The samples of study involved are 50 male and 50 female participants which consists of final year students from Faculty of Cognitive Sciences and Human Development of different courses that includes Human Resource, Cognitive Science and Counselling. This study is a quantitative study that utilizes questionnaires adopted from a study which measure the academic self-efficacy in terms of gender and academic year experience of undergraduates by Sachitra and Bandara (2017) and The Short Form (TEIQue-SF) Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire was developed by Petrides (2009).
