This research aimed to investigate resilience and hope as correlates and predictors of self-efficacy in mothers of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Correlational research design was employed. Using purposive sampling strategy, a sample of 60 mothers having children with ASD with age range of between 4-12 years was selected from Children Hospital, Lahore. Three self-reported questionnaires were used for data collection that includes State Trait Resilience Inventory (Hiew, Mori, Shimizu, & Tominga, 2000), The Adult Dispositional Hope Scale (Snyder et al., 1991) and General SelfEfficacy Scale (Schwarzer & Jerusalem, 1995). Results showed that a significant positive relationship existed between resilience and hope. However, resilience and hope didn‟t have any significant relationship with self-efficacy. Multiple hierarchical regression analysis showed that self-efficacy was not predicted by resilience and hope. Findings imply the importance of considering socio-demographic characteristics of mothers rearing a child with ASD to better understand their sense of self-efficacy
