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.
