This research was aimed at finding out whether students’ pro-eco behavior could be predicted by their personality and self-efficacy interms of a correlational study. A survey method was used involving 200 senior high school students in Jakarta. The reliability of three instruments were respectively 0.75 (pro-eco behavior), 0.87 (big-5 environmental personality), and 0.66 (self-efficacy). Regression and correlation analysis were used. Results revealed that both personality and self-efficacy have a positive and highly significant correlation with students’ pro-eco behavior, even for first-order correlation. Multiple regression model for those variables was also found highly significant. Therefore, it could be concluded that student’s pro-eco behavior could be strongly predicted by personality and self-efficacy and in strengthening students’ pro-eco behavior, their personality and self-efficacy could be taken into account. Considering the results obtained, it was suggested to teachers, who held an important role in the learning process, to understand students’ personalities by paying attention to identifying students’ personalities. It is important also to spontaneously carrying out a kind of parents, society, teacher collaboration. In improving students’ self-efficacy, teachers were supposed to appreciate students which finally would strengthen students’ pro-eco behavior to be more positive and students healthy could be achieved effectively.
