ÃÊ·Ï Salaeva, Gulnoza; Shim, Jaewoo & Lee, Heechul. (2023). The relationship between reading test strategy use and reading self-efficacy sources of Uzbek efl learners. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 31(2), 123-143. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between the use of reading test strategies and reading self-efficacy beliefs among Uzbek EFL learners. The subject pool consisted of 266 Uzbek students who were taking IELTS preparation courses in language centers. Principal Component Analysis was used to reduce the dimensionality of the variables. Based on the students' use of reading test strategies, two clusters were identified using K-means cluster analysis. To determine the impact of the four sources of reading self-efficacy on differentiating the two groups of students, discriminant analysis was conducted. The findings revealed that 'enactive mastery experience' and 'verbal persuasion' played significant roles in distinguishing high and low users of reading test strategies, with the accuracy of 68.4%. The results suggest that Uzbek EFL learners need to enhance their reading self-efficacy in order to use reading test strategies effectively and improve their performance on reading tests.
