Based on this, the aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between self-concept and self-efficacy in relation to the appreciation of batik artwork in visual arts education at the elementary school level. This research employs a quantitative approach with correlation analysis to test the correlation between variables and art appreciation. The population for this study consists of fifth-grade elementary school students. The sample size was calculated using Slovin's formula, resulting in a total of 100 respondents. The method used for data collection is a questionnaire. The instrument used for gathering data is the questionnaire sheet. Data analysis techniques involve inferential statistics.The results of the analysis show that there is a significant relationship between self-concept and batik art appreciation, with a significance value of less than 0.05 and a constant value of 0.000. Self-concept has a regression coefficient of -0.343 with a significance value of 0.003, indicating a significant negative relationship. Furthermore, self-efficacy has a positive relationship with batik art appreciation, with an R value of 0.303 and an R Square value of 0.092, meaning that approximately 9.2% of the variability in batik art appreciation can be explained by self-efficacy.
