The study is directed to discover the relation between the Self-Competency and Anxiety in one hand, and the effects of Self-Competency in updating (changing) the level of anxiety in other hand.

The Self-Competency Scale of (Schwarzer & Jerusalem ,1989) and Kuwait anxiety scale (Abdel-khalek, KUAS 2000) are applied to 212 students (female and male) of Faculty of applied Science in Abri- Oman.

When it comes to the differences of anxiety and Self-Competency between female students and male students, the results pointed out that there are significant differences in degree of anxiety between males and females.

The males were more anxious and less self-competency estimating than females.

The variance analysis highlighted that the level of anxiety decreases when the self- competency increases.

Moreover, it also highlighted the existence of significant differences in the level of anxiety between the low and middle self- competency group, and the middle and high group.

Finally, the linear regression analysis showed the effect of the selfcompetency in decreasing the level of anxiety.

Moreover, it showed that the selfcompetency has a considerable participation in predicting of the level of anxiety.
