INFLUENCE OF STUDY HABITS ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF HIGHER PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS
Abstract: Study habits play a very important role in the life of students. Success or failure of each student depends upon his own study habits. Of course, study is an art and as such it requires practice. Some students study more but they fail to achieve more. Others study less but achieve more. Success of each student definitely depends upon ability, intelligence and effort of students. No doubt, regular study habits bring their own rewards in the sense of achievement of success. The sample for the present study was 250 students. All samples are taken from Bailhongal, Belgavi district from Karnataka state. The original study habit inventory of Patel (1976) consisted of 45 statements. Since some of the statements were ambiguous to the students it was slightly modified 39 statements were retained.
