Abstract:

This research aims to investigate and examine the study habits of criminology students at Davao Oriental State College of Science and Technology (DOSCST), as well as their implications for academic performance. Conversely, this research determines the demographic profiles of criminology students in terms of gender, year level, and General Percentage Average (GPA). Additionally, it examined the study habits of criminology students at Davao Oriental State College of Science and Technology (DOSCST) in terms of studying in a conducive environment, study sessions, self-testing, advanced reading of materials, and rehearsal of learned materials. Moreover, males have a greater percentage rather than females. Out of the 295 respondents gathered for this research, 185 (63%) are males, and 110 (37%) are females. The 3rd year criminology student had the highest GPA compared to the other year levels. On the other hand, female criminology students have greater GPA than males. Furthermore, the average GPA of criminology students was 2.54, which denotes satisfactory. The average study habits of the criminology students were moderate. There was a significant relationship between study habits and academic performance, (P=0.00). Additionally, study habits were moderately correlated to academic performance, with a Pearson correlation coefficientof 0.52.
