This study examines the relationship between emotional self-efficacy and impulsivity among a sample of adolescents. To achieve the study objectives, The descriptive and relational survey method was used, Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale consisting of (27) items and Impulsivity Scale consisting of (22) items were employed after validity and reliability of the two scales were verified. The two scales were administrated to a convenient sample totaling (247) adolescents. The results of the study showed that emotional self-efficacy level among adolescents was moderate as all domains were moderate and were as follows: Managing other emotions, understanding other emotions, self-emotions management, self-emotion understanding, respectively. Three domains of impulsivity scale were low, which were: lack of persistence, positive insistence, seeking for adventure, respectively, while two domains (Negative insistence, premeditation) were very low. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences at (α = 0.05) between the estimates of a sample of adolescent students on the dimensions of impulsivity, as well as between their estimates on the dimensions of emotional self-efficacy and on them collectively due to gender, and a statistically significant negative correlation relationship at (α = 0.01) between Emotionality self-efficacy and the dimension of impulsivity (Negative insistence, premeditation).
