Abstract
: The number of women and men studying at Engineering Faculty as well as the rate of women and men’s involvement in engineering-related profession is different. The differences cause fear of failure on men and women. This study aimed to find out the difference of fear of failure on Students of Engineering Faculty based on gender in Universities in Aceh. Sampling Technique was purposive with 70 students of Engineering Faculty as the samples consisting of 35 men and 35 women. Data collecting technique was using Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI) scale by Conroy (2002) with reliability coefficient score of (α) =0.920. Hypothesis testing used independent sample t-test with significance score of 0,174 (p>0.05). Based on the result, it can be concluded that there is no different fear of failure based on sex on Students of Engineering Faculty in Universities in Aceh. Additional analysis shows that there is different fear of failure in term of Academic Level with significance score of 0,029 (p<0.05), in contrary, no different fear of failure in term of age and major with significance score of 0,279 (p>0.05) and 0.943 (p>0.05) respectively.
