ABSTRACT
In the fields of education and psychology, learning has been discovered all over the world to be a highly complex problem. Several researchers have tried to explain it differently and the description of each is partially true. Over the years, researches on factors that influence academic performance of students have attracted the interest of not only researchers but concern of teachers, counsellors, psychologists, and school administrators as well. This researcher attempts to find out the Effects of Study Habits of Students in Public Secondary Schools in Chikun Local Government Area, Kaduna State and analyze relationship between study habits and academic performance and various other factors that affect study habits. It is generally believed that a student learns effective study habits in school. So students are generally assumed to have effective study habits, but the environment of school is very different and the need of effective study habits is even more at college level as compared to school. So, this research consists of details about why effective study habits are needed in Secondary Schools in order to learn and eventually score better. This research used questionnaire, observation and data presentation in its work based on the number of the respondent of the questionnaires administered. The instrument is made up of 5 items and it consists of 20 items which formed the main part of the questionnaire. It is designed along 5 point Likert type scale; ranging from Strongly Agreed (SA), Agreed (A), Undecided (U), Disagreed (D) and Strongly Disagreed (SD). The questions were meant to elicit responses on The Effects of Study Habits on Academic Performance of Students in Public Secondary Schools in Chikun Local Government Area. The work also moved further to the finding, the conclusion, the summary and the recommendations. Due to the finding, it is observed that some responses are more effective than others. It means that most students do ideally follow Effective Study Habits. In conclusion, students should not be condemned but be encouraged and linked to teachers who they can establish intellectual companionship that will help improve Study Habits. It was however recommended that teachers and parents should identify good study habits and find ways and means of enhancing them among students. Furthermore, Government should provide ways of improving Study Habits in Secondary Schools e.g., by providing well equipped library buildings and facilities.
