problems is academic underachievement and academic failure caused by poor or improper study habit. On
the part of the affected students, ethological suggestions to motivate them for achievement and psycho-
stimulants to develop their reading skills can be of use in reducing the effect of this educational problem,
poor study habit. Studies have established the prevalence of poor study habit among the University
undergraduates, which has led to poor performance in home assignments as well as in examinations.
Hence, this study focuses on the factors that are capable of precipitating poor study habit which aggravate
into educational problems and how they can be effectively managed to increase the level of academic
achievement in the average undergraduate .The reduction effect will go a long way to build a nation
where mediocrity will soon become a thing of the past. Integrity, as a value, will be further established as

tried to delve into the fallen standard of education in Nigeria and reasons for the fallen standard from the
perspective of the stakeholders in education, the teacher, parents as well as the students themselves. The
study also examined efforts that have been put in place in die past to put an end to the fallen standard of
education. In these regard, some hypothesis were raised to find out reasons for the fallen standard.

habits are attributed to the facts that students do not know how to study and those that manage to study do
According to Evans Atsiaya siahi and Julius K. Maiyo 10 August, 2015 the studies on the
correlation of academic achievement have paved way for control and manipulation of related
variables for quality results in schools. In spite of the facts that schools impart uniform classroom
instructions to all students, wide range of difference is observed in their academic achievement.
The study sought to determine the relationship between study habits and academic achievement
of students. A survey design was employed in this descriptive correlation study. The target
population included the 9th standard students at Spicer Higher Secondary School. Stratified
random sampling was used to select the respondents, study habits inventory by N.M. Palsane and
school examinations records was the main instrument for data collection. Quantitative method
was used to analyze field data collected. Interpretation and recommendations of the findings was
made accordingly as per computed Pearsons product moment coefficient of correlation. Results
of this study revealed a positive relationship of 0.66 between study habits and academic
achievement. The results implied that the study habits need a significant attention if we are to
improve performance. There was a clear finding that the teachers and students seem not to take
According to nal akrolu Vol 15, No 4 (2014) this study examined the relationships among
learning styles, study habits, and learning performances in an online programming language course.
Sixty-two sophomore students who enrolled in an online introductory programming course participated in
the study. Kolbs Learning Style Inventory (LSI) was used to measure the students learning styles.
Another inventory developed by the researcher was used to determine learners study habits. An
achievement test was used to put forward their learning performances. As a result, significant
relationships between learning styles, study habits, and learning performances were revealed. The results
present some ideas about distance learners learning styles and study habits for instructors who wish to
been many studies conducted about the study habits of the students and its implication on the students
academic performance. However, results varies in different settings whether urban or rural, the very
reason why researchers chose this study. The purpose of the study focused on the Study Habits of the
Grade-V and Grade-VI pupils in Baluarte Elementary School for the School Year 2012- 2013. This study
was conducted to find out the factors affecting the study habits of the students in that particular area. The
study was anchored on the Self-Determination Theory of Edward Deci and Richard M. Ryan because
internal and external factors wither in Inside the school or outside the school and even in their homes can
contribute to the respondents auto no my, competence and relatedness which will form into their
individual self determination to do well in every task and even to their study habits. For the schema of the
study the researchers consider the following independent variables: Students Profile i n terms of their
Parental Involvement, Family Monthly Income, Learning Styles and Academic Performance getting the
3rd grading grades of the Major subjects such as English, Math, Science and Filipino. For the Dependent
variable which is the Study Habits, the researchers chose to focus on the two variables: Time
Management and Study Techniques. The study sought to prove the formulated null hypotheses that there
are no study habits of the respondents in terms of their time management and study techniques and there
are no significant differences in the respondents Study Habits when group according to their Parental
Involvement, Family Monthly Income, Learning Style, Academic Performance and their Teachers
Personality. The researchers formulated 38 self-developed survey questionnaire validated by the panel of
experts in the field of Educational Research. The study used quantitative method mainly the descriptive
Statistics getting the Frequency and Percentage in organizing, describing, analyzing and presenting the
data. It used Purposive Sampling in choosing thirty four (34) respondents that answered the 38-
itemquestionnaire validated. Through the said sampling technique, the researchers arrived with 11
respondents from Grade-V and 23 respondents from the Grade-VI. The results of the study that were
gathered showed that there were high significant differences in the respondents time management and
study techniques when grouped according to their Parental Involvement and Teachers Personality. Parents
and teachers plays important role in promoting autonomy, competence and relatedness that will produced
a more self-determined students. Results also revealed that there were significant differences in the
respondents study habit in terms of their Family monthly Income and academic performance.
Respondents will really spend ample amount for the school works and if lack of financial capacity, it
would really affect their academic performances. On the other hand learning styles did not show any
significance on the respondents study habit because whether the learner was Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic
or a combination of any were capable of managing their time efficiently and apply varied study
techniques regardless of what kind of learner he/she was. The principal conclusion formulated was that
there was a need to consider the family Monthly Income in all plans of the school because it will affect
However according to Mr. Amarveer Singh and Dr. Jai Pal Singh Vyas (November, 2014) the
study deals with the relationship among the academic achievement of students and the socioeconomic
status of parents in selected primary schools of Meerut district of Uttar Pradesh. The environment of
family plays a significant role in the educational and social development of children. The important
family conditions that have significant role in the determination of educational achievement and social
behaviour of students are the income level of parents, the educational level of parents and the health

parents does not make significant effect on the educational achievement of students but the parental
educational level health status of children has a significant role in determining the educational
achievement and social adjustment of the children. Apart from these factors, the democratic environment
at home and the availability of means of recreation play a significant role in the academic performance of

perception on study habits of undergraduate students and analyze relationship between study habits and
academic performance and various other factors that affects study habit. It is generally believed that a
student learns effective study habits in school. So college students are generally assumed to have effective
study habits, but, the environment of school and college are very different and need of effective study
