The kind of study habits they have shows the differences or improvements in how they become skilled and earnest about learning new things. Studying does not only include the preparation of students to excel in class but also the reinforcements of the lessons already taught. It is merely reviewing and committing to mind new information. Furthermore, study habits can be derived as buying out a dedicated scheduled and un-interrupted time to apply one’s self to the task of learning. Without it, one does not grow and become self-limiting in life. Truly, it plays a very important role on their academic performances. The effects of study habits on student’s academic performances rely on how they practiced their own study habits. It is actually not difficult to acquire excellent and powerful studying habits and techniques. Many of these are actually common sense and the key is the application of strong study tools and not actually in the tools...

As innovation goes through and globalization or westernization happens, students learned how to exploit every available resources surrounding them.

.... College students, especially freshmen, are a group particularly prone to stress (D'Zurilla & Sheedy, 1991) due to the transitional nature of college life (Towbes & Cohen, 1996). They must adjust to being away from home for the first time, maintain a high level of academic achievement, and adjust to a new social environment. College students, regardless of year in school, often deal with pressures related to finding a job or a potential life partner. These stressors do not cause anxiety or tension by themselves. Instead, stress results from the interaction between stressors and the individual's perception and reaction to those stressors (Romano, 1992). The amount of stress experienced may be influenced by the individual's ability to effectively cope with stressful events and situations (D'Zurilla & Sheedy, 1991). If stress is not dealt with effectively, feelings of loneliness and nervousness, as well as sleeplessness and excessive worrying may result (Wright, 1967). It is important that stress intervention programs be designed to address stress of college students. However, in order to design an effective intervention, the stressors specific to college students must be determined (Wright, 1967). The Student Stress Survey (SSS) was used to determine the major sources of stress among college students. The scale consisted of 40 potentially stressful situations. The scale addressed interpersonal, intrapersonal, academic, and environmental sources of stress. The items in the scale...

...they even head off to college, first time college students will have heard about the dreaded Freshman 15. The Freshman 15 is the idea that by the end of their first year of college, first time college freshman will have gained 15 pounds. However, research has found that the average increase of weight for the freshman population ranges between 2.4 to 4.6 pounds (Smith-Jackson and Reel 14). Nevertheless, this is still a significant amount of weight gain for anyone and it could foreshadow a pattern of unhealthy eating patterns down the road that will have effects on college students’ heath, such as obesity and diabetes. The Freshman 15 is not something that unexpectedly happens overnight, remote and immediate causes contribute to the weight...

...Study Habits and Attitudes of Freshmen Students: Implications for Academic Intervention Programs Luisa Baquiran Aquino University Research Pool, University of Saint Louis, Tuguegarao City, Philippines Email: luisaaquino031580@gmail.com Abstract—The substantive aim of this study was to investigate the favorable and unfavorable study habits and study attitudes of the freshmen students and determine its implications in formulating academic intervention programs. The Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (SSHA) instrument developed by Brown and Holtzman (1969) was used to assess the study habits and attitudes of the students. Results show that students generally do not approve teacher methods and classroom management, and have inefficient time management. Favorable and unfavorable study habits and attitudes of the students were also revealed. Implications of these findings were discussed and the theory of confluent education was considered in designing a framework of academic intervention programs among HEIs. Index Terms—study habits, study attitudes, study orientation, academic achievement, academic intervention programs, confluent education I.
