dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study were to im estigate the relationship between adolescent self-efficacy, se(f-esteem, aggression, gender and their academic performance. The data were gathered through three Likert type scales (se(f- efficacy, se(f-esteelJl, and aggression) and data on their academic pel/orl11ance , l"ere collected from the record offices of their respected schools. A totaf of 286 (225 male and 61 females) high school adolescent students ranging from 15 to 1 year' of age af/ending grade nine and ten in the Gambella Region constitute Ihe sample. The sample lila' selected through proportional stratified random 'amJ7ling methoc/. The results were analyzed lIsing mean, standard deviation. Pearson correlation, t-test and multiple regression. The Intercorelation matrix result indicated that se(F-efficacy and academic achie\ ement had a positive correlation ofr=0.15, p < 0.05; and aggression and academic achievement had a negative correlation 0/1' =-0.18, p < 0.01 ; and aggression and se(f-esteem had a negative cOrl'elation ofr=-0.22, p < O. OJ. The contribution of gender, aggression. se(f-efficacy together accollnled for 10 . ../0 percent of lOriation /n academic achievement. Gender was posith ely and sign(ficantly related to academic achievement (1' =0.20, p < 0.05). A statisticaff)' sign(ficant d(ffercnce was obtainedin academic achie\ emenl and aggression in /c/1'or of males I (2 ../) =3 . ../3../, P 0.05 and t (28../) =3.82. p < 0.05 respectively. <... imilarly, a stalistically sign(jicant difference was observed bel\1'een male ane/female se(f- esteem score' in fen or of females (t (28.:1) =-../.071. P < 0.05 in absolute lOlue).However, the t-te I shol1" that no statistically significant difference was ob. 'erved between male andfemale students in self-efficacy 1(28"/) =1.109,p>0.05. It indicates that 'llIdents' gender difference influences their academic achie\ ement. Hence, due allention hould be given in enhanCing 'e(f-efficacy and self-esteem and minimizing aggression of adolescent students in order to facilitate a beller academic performance schools. | en_US |
