The sudden transition from face-to-face classes to online learning had made such meaningful impacts on students' efficacy and academe. Thus, students faced difficulties in adapting to the undesired and abrupt shift to online learning, which causes a lack of psychological capabilities to manage their academic needs, suffers a high level of academic stress and low efficacy, and gains vulnerability to psychosocial disturbances and burnout. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between self-efficacy and academic burnout among students here in the Philippines.
