Therefore, the purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between achievement goals and students' anxiety in statistics course, considering the mediating role of self-efficacy. Methods: The current research was of the type of relational design, and more precisely, the correlation design was of the structural equation modeling type. Among the first, second, third, and fourth year students, the second and fourth year students were randomly selected, and 324 students completed the questionnaires of this research. Finally, after removing incomplete questionnaires, 312 questionnaires were analyzed. In order to collect data, achievement goals goals scale (1997), self-efficacy scale (Sherer and Adams, 1986) and Kravis et al.'s statistics anxiety scale (1985) were used as research tools in this research to collect data. In this research, SPSS19 software was used for data recording and preliminary analysis, and AMOS software was used for data analysis, and a significance level of p < 0.05 was considered for all hypotheses.
