Abstract This study is concerned with the relationships between foreign language speaking anxiety and demographic factors among college-level students. The study attempted to predict the roles of speaking self-efficacy and emotional intelligence on foreign language speaking anxiety among 150 (Male = 78; Female = 72) Filipino college students. The data were collected using established scales; the Speaking Skills Self-Efficacy Scale (Asakareh and Dehghannezhad, 2015), Assessing Emotions Scale or Emotional Intelligence Scale (Salovey and Mayer, 1990), and the Foreign Language Speaking Anxiety Scale (Öztürk and Gürbüz, 2014) based on Hortwitz et al. (1986). The results revealed that most Filipino college students suffered from a high level of FLSA (f = 62; % = 41.33) and males were more anxious than females when it comes to speaking a foreign language. It was also stated that foreign language speaking anxiety was negatively correlated with the two variables; speaking self-efficacy and emotional intelligence but they are not a good fit for each other. Hence, this suggests that there might be other predictors that can influence FLSA.
