The constructs and measures of self-assessed intelligence (SAI), the personality trait Intellect, self-efficacy and academic self-beliefs by definition appear to be distinct, but at the item level there appears to be considerable content overlap. It is possible that researchers working largely in isolation from one another have developed different construct names for the same underlying construct or trait. This article examines the overlap between these constructs in a sample of 301 university students. Structural equation modelling indicated that SAI, academic self-concept, academic self-efficacy and the personality trait Intellect all contain an underlying component of academic self-belief, but that the overlap was not as high as expected. These findings suggest that the constructs are distinct from one another and should be used independently.
