difficult task. You will need so much money so you can be able to attend schooling.

Once you take your first step, the difficulties will be on your way.

It is not that easy to reach your graduation time. You have to be prepared in

it is not the only factor needed to have education. You also need to be industrious in

every sigle matter to finish what you have to do and to have a good partilant

documents or your credentials.

No matter what the situation is, you should be motivated to pursue your

studies whether you are Parent-Supported or Self-Supported. You will always end

up with the decision you chose to have. You must always dech with a decision that

will give you the best and not the worst.

B. Conceptual Framework

Time Management
Learning Skills
Study Habits
Study Skills

C. Statement of the Problem

What are the common factors affecting study habits among XU students?

D. Hypothesis

These factors do not affect the study habits among XU students.

E. Significance of the Study

The proposed research will determine the common factors affecting study

habits among XU students.

 The result of this study will make the XU-community be aware of the common

study habits among the students. The researchers expect that through this study,

the Xavier University will develop strategic solutions regarding study habits if we

found out that most of the students have poor study habits.

F. Scope and Limitations

The scopes of this research are the students here in Xavier University of any

year level and course. The limitations of this research are only those students that

are currently enrolled at XU and is having the prescribe study load for a given

semester. Only those undergraduate students are allowed to participate in the

research.

G. Definition of Terms

Constitutive Definition:

• Factors- one that actively contributes to an accomplishments, results, or

process

• Develop- to bring out the capabilities or possibilities of

• Study Habits- manner which you consistently use to study for school or

college or even for the next day lesson.

• Students- describe as one who directs zeal at a subject. Student is used

for anyone who is learning.

Operational Definition:

• Factors- these refers to anything that contributes to the study habits

• Develop- refers to fast or gradual changes in a range of time

 • Study Habits- refers to the ways of studying on a particular subject

• XU Students- referring to all officially enrolled students of Xavier University

II. Review of Related Literature and Studies

Most studies and literatures on study habits would point that the factors affecting

study habits are learning skills, personality, time-management, parental involvement,

intelligence, study skills, achievement, caste and region.

Study habits may be taken for granted, particularly in developing

countries. Professors in the developing countries should attempt to “equip graduates

with high level of analytical skills, the capacity for critical reasoning, self-reflection

and conceptual grasp and ability to learn autonomously and exercise flexibility of

mind” (Simmons 2003). Study habits are actually improving because of the advent

and wide use of the Internet, hypertext, and multimedia resources (Liu, 2005). Karim
and Hassan (2006) also note the exponential growth digital information, which

changes the way students perceive study are reading and in how printed materials

are used to facilitate study. Liu (2005) and Ramirez (2003) report that students print

material from the Internet in order to study and read later on. Igun (2005) also found

that Nigerians study from materials downloaded from the Internet.

III. The Methodology

A. The Research Design

The research method is a survey because we would just give our respondents

the questionnaire for them to fill out the needed data. It is appropriate because our

research is not a behavioural research that would need observation on the

respondents

B. Samplings

C. Respondents

D. Data Gathering

E. Scoring Method

F. Statistical Instruments Use
